Oh So French Frames



I scored on these old frames the other day. My intent was to paint them but then as I fooked at the richness of the dark brown wood, I decided to keep them this color and create my art accordingly. Not a fan of the linen around the edges of frames, I thought I would stamp them for fun. Loved the way it turned out. I used the same frame for these pictures but plan on stamping each differently to go with the art.
