One for me, one for you

A successful experiment using Sulky Soft & Sheer stabilizer for stretch fabrics. Design from Aimee Ray's "The Motif Collection". That's me wearing the hot pink tee, Rit-dyed. I used white DMC floss, all six strands.

Wedding photo printed out with peach tone from PhotoImpression program, pale yellow acrylic painted wood plaque, stickers, gold glitter, matte Mod Podge. Forgot to spray photo with hairspray, turned out OK anyway. Christmas gift for Mom.

Decoupage Baby Picture - finished!

I used 9 coats of glossy Mod Podge on this one.  Plus glitter.  I think it turned out well.

Birthday Decoupage Project for my brother, Chris

I'm going to decoupage a wood circle with a picture of my brother as a baby for his 50th birthday.  Today I scanned the photo, printed it out on my inkjet printer, ripped it out and sprayed it with hairspray so I can decoupage it onto the wood.  I painted the wood with red acrylics with a little white mixed in.  I'm gonna wait until tomorrow to start decoupaging.  I only have gloss Mod Podge left so will use that.  I think it will be awfully plain so I'd like to use either silver stars (like the kind you got as a kid in school) or silver glitter on it.  I'll have to ask Mom if she has any of those star stickers.  What do you think?  Should I leave it plain or what?  Here is the picture of the original photo, from about 1963 and the one I printed:

Here is the painted wood circle:
