15 Tricks To Treat Your Halloween...Pocket Full of Pink

Pin It
Hello all you Katie{Did}It readers! I am so excited that Katie let me join in on the party!  I love a good party, especially a Halloween one!
 
 My name is Karen and I blog over at Pocket Full Of Pink.  I love to create with paper, wood, paint and old frames!  I especially like to use what I already have on hand! 
 
Today I want to share with you my Spooky Boo Frame:
 
 
Everything I made this with I already had on hand!  Super cheap and Easy:)
 


Supplies you will need:
 
-Old frame from thrift store {I got mine at Salvation Army for about 1$}
-Paint {I used Black and Wedding Cake white}
-Sponge brush
-vinyl lettering {or you could cut the letters out of paper}
-scrapbook paper
-sticky back foamie pumpkins {I think I got these at Micheal's}
 
1. Grab your frame and take the glass and backing out.
2. Paint the frame black using foam brush {I just did 1 coat}.
3. Pick your scrapbook paper and trace the size out using the backing on the frame.
4. Just a cool picture of what my paper looks like!
5. Frame painted and with paper inserted.
6. Sponge brush over black paint with white paint.  I didn't cover all the black. I like the way it makes it look kinda spooky!
7. Apply pumpkins and vinyl lettering to paper {not the glass on the frame!}
8.  Slide the finished masterpiece into the frame.

Now you have a cute decoration that you can switch out with other fun inserts! 
 

I love interchangeable decorations:)

Thanks to Katie for letting me stop by!  I would love you to stop over and visit at Pocket Full of Pink any time!
