Stenciled Butterfly Wood Frame with Child Silhouette - Clearsnap

Blue and Green Stenciled Butterfly Wood Frame with Child Silhouette and Copper Lettered Name

Hi! I'm sharing a stenciled butterfly wood frame that I altered for Clearsnap today. One of my favorite Art Screens Trio sets from Clearsnap is the Butterfly set. ColorBox Art Screens Trios are sets of three unique stencil images designed for use in sequence to create beautiful layered art. Each screen can be used individually or together. A big advantage to these layered sets is that the separate stencil screens allow for precise color application, which produces a crisp and clean image every time.

Rather than place a picture in the frame, I decided to use a silhouette of my oldest daughter. I colored the wood frame insert with ColorBox Crafter's Ink to create a colored background for the silhouette. I couldn't create a piece of home décor without a touch of bling. I used a set of letter masks to outline my daughter's name onto the frame. I then colored in the letters with Copper Smooch Ink. It really sparkles in the light, providing a nice contrast with the rustic bark edge of the frame.
