I wanted to make something fun for my mother for her birthday. I wanted to give her something that I made, but not just a card or a a mini book. So with this in mind I made a cute little wall hanging for her. The picture is of my son Brandon when he was 18 months old, my mother took the picture. The squares are 3 x 3 inches and holding them together is hemp string.
The top square is made of cardboard, then the bottom two are chipboard. I played around with some mixed media Gellato paints from Faber Castelle that I got at a CKC convention class for the top square and some gesso and patterned paper for the middle square. I did not put any pictures on on the back of the hanging, but you most certainly could and make it two sided.
This project was made for Frosted Designs things with wings challenge - i hope you pop over and play along!!
I hope this inspires you to make a fun little gift for someone special!!
