Mo's Digital Challenge #3



This is the project I created this week for Mo's Digital Challenge.  Sandy was the hostess.  She challenged us to make anything BUT a card.  This is a picture frame and snow globe I made for my sister and niece for Christmas.  I bought the frame at Michaels for $1.99.  I had a 40% off coupon.  I also bought acrylic paint and painted the frame.  I colored my SNOWMAN image from Mo's Digital Pencil and then covered the snowflake part of the frame with designer paper and Modge Podge.  Added my colored image behind it. 


I added the sentiment to the snowman's tummy in PhotoShop.
Then I wanted to create a little something for my niece too.  I had this snow globe I got at Walmart last year so I resized the same snowman and printed and colored it again.  I added it to the globe for my niece.  She loves sparkles. 

Here is a close up of the globe all shook up.  I found this globe in the Photo section at Christmas time last year.  I added a strip of dp on the bottom.  Total cost of this gift was under $5 and I think she will love it. I signed the back of the picture and will send this off to them.  Come on over to the challenge blog and join in. You could win a digital image of your choice.

    What an awesome card and snow globe Dawn!! I love your image stamped and colored in the snowflake cut out!! Too clever. That snow globe is an awesome gift idea. How did you get the image in there if it was already a snow globe and what did you stamp you image on so it was water proof?

    hugs,

    Chris
