Hi Everyone! Happy Monday. I hope you had a great weekend. I got quite a few things done this weekend. I want to show you one of the projects I made. I was looking through my stash and came across these frames. I've had them for a few years. I got them after Valentine's Day a few years ago at Wal-Mart for a $1 each. I love clearance items, don't you? I also pulled out a couple of felt white birds and a flower.
I just think these birds are the cutest.
As are the flowers.
I cut a square out of a sheet of vintage sheet music for each frame. And then added the felt bird.And here they all are.
Here they are with the red heart wreath I made.
I like them, but something isn't exactly right. I think there isn't enough contrast between the sheet music and the white felt bird and flower. So I dug around in my stash of pretty paper and found this.It's a very pretty gray with a light gray pattern. So I cut squares out of this paper and tried again.
These pictures just don't do it justice. I liked the sheet music but I like this too.
I also changed out the stack of flower shapes and changed the center to a cream one. It was just too much white on white on white.And here they all are together.
And again with the heart wreath I made.
I think I like the gray background better. But I do like the sheet music too. Maybe if the frame for the sheet music was a different color. And here's the sheet music once again.
Which do you like better? What would you have done with the frames? Thanks for stopping by.
I like the gray better; it makes your little felt creations "pop" more. What would I have done with the frames? Oh, probably stored them in the garage for a year or two ;-)

I like the ones with the sheet music better. For some reason it just seems more romantic. I am a new follower visiting from Northern Cottage.Vicky from Mess For Less
ReplyDeleteHow fun! I like sheet music too!
ReplyDeleteHi there, both backgrounds are very nice - the frames are fabulous. Have you thought about trying a red flower/bird in the middle? They would really pop. Just saying. I have recently found your blog and am now following you, and will visit often. Please stop by my blog and perhaps you would like to follow me also. Have a wonderful day. Hugs, Chris
