Swap Requirements: transparency, some stamping, vintage image, beads, other embellishment, fabric, heart. Let me tell you, this was a challenge for me.The canvas backing (fabric) is stamped with POD's music script (some stamping). The image from Bygone Beauties (vintage image) is printed on acetate (transparency). The heart was stamped on shrink plastic and colored with Prismacolor pencils (more stamping). The frame was cut out of cs, inked and heat embossed with Distress ink and EP (other embellishment). The beads were the problem. I tried all sorts of different things, but none went with these pieces. I finally gave up and bought the beads you see here. A couple of them have silk flowers painted with Diamond Glaze and coated with clear seed beads. Later I saw wonderful vintage pieces of art with all kinds of beads. I wish I'd been more adventuresome.Note: I tried to distress the edges of these squares after applying fray-check. Don't try that. The ink never dried and had to be wiped off. The transparencies were mounted on white linen paper. The beads are held down with glue dots. I had a problem with the Distress EP coming off completely. Does anyone have any suggestions about that? I tried to fix the last one by making another frame and placing it over the first one, but it didn't match up exactly in size so I ruined that piece. TFL. Daria
