Happy Saturday! I hope you guys are having a fabulous weekend so far. I love this time of year, don't you? Well, besides the cold weather.. I don't miss the heat here in California!
Have you guys been hopping along? There are so many ways to use Emma's stamps and dies! I just love how versatile they are! For my project today, I altered a wooden cross I found at Michaels. Can you believe this started out as a $1 cross!! Crazy right! My plan was to keep it simple but when I added the paper and Mod Podge, the paper started to rip. So I decided to go for a grungy look. I distressed the edges and added a wire netting (dollar store find). I then went into my Timmy box (Tim Hotlz) and added all things Timmy! I added MCT Rolled flower Dies and finished it off with the sentiment.
It actually only took about an hour to make. I think this would look beautiful in any home!
