Gorgeous Girl Frame

This frame was created for workshop I taught at Artfull Crafts earlier this year. I demonstrated a simple paint technique (see below) which can be used on any kind of wood surface. All supplies are from the Kasiercraft Save the Date Collection.

Paint Technique

1. I have used a simple paint technique that will work on any wooden base and with any combination of colors. I generally use 2 accent colors with white or cream on top. In this case I used green and mustard as my accent colors with a white coat on top.
2. Apply your darkest accent color to the frame. It does not have to cover the frame completely, but wipe any paint that spills over the frame edge with a baby wipe. 
3. When dry – apply your second accent color and let dry. Finally, apply your top color (white or cream) all over the frame – again, wiping any smudges over the edges. 
4. When COMPLETELY dry – take a small piece of rough grit sandpaper and sand over the top. Go lightly at first until you reach your desired level of distressing.

You can also use Washi Tape to cover the frame too!
