Some altered frames.

These should have been done long before now but with my health being so bad I had no choice but to leave them! Finally got them done on saturday and then OH printed out the pictures for me on sunday.

What I didn't realise (due to playing with a funky new tripod for camera) that on 2 of them you can really see my reflection!! couldn't retake the pictures as I had already parcelled them up to send to my mum!!

First one - My Daughter - Maddison~Mae or as she introduces herself Maddison Mayhem!





Then my lovely son Thomas.




Then this last picture is of my Grandad who passed away last year, and my grandma who I never remember as she died when I was 1. This picture was taken before they were married and was taken in Epping Forest. If I had to choose out of the 3 then this one would be the one I would choose.





Amazing what you can do with a pack of 3 ikea 6x4 frames (£1.29?) and some pretty papers and embellishments!

I would like to enter the final fram of my Grandad and Gramdma into the Incy Wincy designs challenge - Blast from the past. It must count as that at the very least. hope that is ok as it is not card based.

They're all fabulouse but if I had to choose one I agree with you, it would be the one of your grandparents, it's a lovely picture as well as a beautifully decorated frame.
