An altered Roll in all it's glory! I made a Hollywood film roll for my daughter.
She loves the elegance of Grace Kelly and Audrey Hepburn so I thought she would like this for her birthday.
First I covered the roll with a digi paper with a vintage looking print of cream roses on green background. Then punched out my film roll edges from black card and then added the photo's I had from stock and a little verse.Then I stuck the black card onto the prepared roll. Then it was ready to decorate.
I made two flowers using different techniques and added these to the top of the roll and also added some Prima flowers to the back to add interest.
This is how it all began. Oh! what a transformation haha!
What a beautiful gift. From small beginnings come great things.
ReplyDeleteThis project is fantastic! Love it. What a unique and beautiful piece of art you have created. It reminds me of an old roll of film I saved because of a problem I had getting it into an old camera years before digital...you have indeed given me an idea to use that roll in a smaller version..perhaps using a pill container. Thanks so much for sharing this beauty, Vee. Hugs, Gayle.
