Do you have your funky blue and red glasses on? OK - you don't really need those stylish glasses but I do have a 3-D project to share with you. This is an 8.5x8.5 wall plaque that I altered. There was a similar project in a Stampin' Up publication and I've been looking for a plaque or frame to use to make my own. I finally found the plaque at Target for $5. Woo-hoo!
I covered the plaque with a piece of the Urban Oasis Designer Series paper - adhering it with Sticky Strip. The butterfly is cut from the same pack of paper with the Beautiful Butterflies Bigz Die and then I put three black brads in the center for his body. A friend of mine said the butterfly looks like he's wearing a tuxedo! I'm a pretty casual gal and would never expect someone to wear formal attire for the debut of this piece, although I would love to see a few pair of those stylish glasses. So let's call this blog post "Black Tie Optional". Ha ha!
The letters are from the On Board Lots of Letters chipboard assortment. I covered the letters with Basic Black craft ink and then heat embossed with clear embossing powder. They are attached to the plaque with sticky strip as well.
Now the big cliff hanger...do I keep it or give it as a gift? You'll have to wait for the sequel to find out. :)
