The Edge

My idea for the edge of my indigo mirror frame that I mentioned in the last post worked well.  I cut various width strips from the covers of catalogs that I have saved...they are a nice heavy weight. Using matte medium and my brayer I adhered them onto a piece of heavy card stock and added a topcoat. You can read about the start of this project here and here.

Next I cut them into strips the the length and width of the frame edges. I also trimmed them out with my trusty gold sharpie...mostly to get rid of the white edges...and I wanted them to tie into my gold embellishments on the front.

And finally I glued them onto the edge...I think they look like cool little tiles.  A good solution I think.  Now I just have to find a 4 x 6 mirror and this project is FINALLY done.
