The Key

Well we have been gone for a little while now. The reason being is I am the one who usually does the posting and my computer blew up. My trustworthy mac just stopped working one day. Soooo I haven't been able to access my pictures or do much blogging. Then.....Christmas came and I have been doing a lot of relaxing with family which has been awesome. Finally I thought I better get down to business and get back on this blogging train.

The thing I am posting today is not a stamping craft but it is still a fun craft! We bought the Ikea frame, which is black and we originally wanted to put the initial of our last name inside the frame. However our plans changed when we went to look for a letter we liked. We went to hobby lobby and instead of a letter we found a really cool key! Since my mom is a realtor she has a thing for keys. We also bought some red spray paint for the frame.

Put it all together and you get...



Sorry about the steak of sunlight in the bottom left of the picture. (Not a professional photographer)


More projects coming soon!

Very cool - I've looked at the frame a few time but never bought it.

The key was a great find and looks great in the frame.
