How fun is that?!???!???!
I love me some Tombow. Mono adhesive is the BOMB Diggity. I use it all the time and today is no exception. So I thought this project was appropriate because I got some of my Christmas decorations out and this frame was falling apart because the glue was old. Humph I obviously didn't use Tombow the first time! What to do? What to do? Well, have no fear Tombow is here to fix it for me!
I redid everything except the base of the frame that I painted a year ago with some crackle paint and some inks. I was originally a dollar store find at Michaels. I added some more glitter spritz and the green Jenni Bowlin Core Impression frame and the bow and other details. It was fun "redoing" this project...or is this what they call upcycling? I never know what that means. I also added a David Tutera Celebrate Tag. Unfortunately no picture yet because this will house our Christmas card this year. Note that there isn't one because we never did one last year! LOL!

Here is one of the reasons I love me my Mono Multi Adhesive...it dries CLEAR! So I hung the hemp over the corner of the frame and then used the clothespin to keep in place while it dried ..it will only take a minute, don't worry! I know a lot of people don't have patience but this dries quickly.
And see this card? This tree was inside this frame...since I was redoing it...I thought it needed a full scale redo so I salvaged this and made it into a card! All I did was mount it on to Step 2 layers from David Tutera Celebrate and then a card base from Step 1.
And I was tricky here....I think :) Since this was already glued together, I just put some Mono Adhesive on this Webster's pin and stuck it through the green and red layer! Voila! It will stay in place now.
And then layered it to a few more of David's layers. This one is the A7 Lace Doily Assortment. Gorgeous! They come this way so no die cutting...just adhere it with a few dots of Mono like I did here.
