Vintage style French Bubble Frame

Morning everyone, Tracy here. 

Have you been and checked out the new Spring release ? there is some fantastic items in the release, so if you haven't checked it out, then what you waiting for ! 

Onto what I have been creating this week. 

I have used one of the fab Bubble Frame kits, the one I have used is the new French Oval Kit, and it is beautiful ! 

I wanted to go with a vintage/shabby style with it...

What do you think ? I was really happy with how it turned out. 

On the actual frame I have painted it with Off white paint, and then used a Crackle glaze, once dry I used Distress stain, which i rubbed all over and then buffed off. 

The edges of the frame and French oval I rubbed some gold wax. 

Inside the Bubble I have used the new Stacey's stacking flowers, which are brilliant and so versatile ! I used Aged White Embossing Enamel & Copper Kettle Embossing Enamel on the flowers and trimmed them so they sat around the edge of the frame, I also "lifted" some of the petals to give some dimension to them.

I have also used one of the butterflies from the Butterfly Accents set and one of the flourishes from Medium Flourish Accents set, i embossed these using Bahama Aqua Embossing Enamel

Here is a closer look at the butterfly...

You can also see the crackle and the beautiful frame better in this picture.
