Making Pictures from Cards


When I was on holiday I bought these very jolly greetings cards. I thought they would make perfect pictures for the wall and before I knew it, I noticed some picture frames in a basket being sold for just a couple of pounds in a shop clearance.
 Perfect timing, how could I resist?


They needed a couple of coats of paint before I was happy with them so I used my acrylics to get the right shade of blue and


now they look just right!
