We own a rental property, and the renters need our address [for mailing those rent checks ;)]. How perfect is this key holder for them! A place for the keys, along with never loosing our address.
To make this project, I started with a 10¢ garage sale find frame.
I broke off the back stand since I want to hang this on a wall.
I cut a card panel the size of the frame
Now, the fun part starts!
Using Simply Stamps Ice Cream Cone stamp, I cut off the "ice cream" portion so I could use just the "cone" part. [This just extends the use of the stamp, as I can still put the 2 cuts together again to use the stamp as originally intended.]
I stamped repeatedly across the card panel using the Color Box Wicked Black ink.
The advantage to this ink, is it is archival, and works with my water color pens.
I painted the frame using black paint, put everything back together again, and adhered some clear hooks. For the last step, I stamped my address using my Self Inking stamp. All done!
Have you popped over to the Simply Stamps store to see all the products they offer?
It is pretty amazing~
Thanks for stopping by~
