Altered Wood Picture Frame

Here is my entry for the altered wood picture frame over at Platinum Scraps.  Completing this challenge was very special for me.  My cousin sent me this picture sometime last week and asked me to print it out for her. Well it has special meaning to her. Many of you know that I lost my aunt recently. This is my cousin and her mom(my aunt) taken at another funeral about two weeks before her mom left us.

I cut mother out a thousand times and my machine tore it up no matter how I tried. I said you know what, I am just going to call it "Soul" which is what we all called her because she truly was the "Soul" of our family.

The challenge was to alter a wooden picture frame, but I decided to kill two birds with one stone as they say.  I followed the challenge sketch over at Stuck On Sketches and altered the wooden frame for our challenge.

I made a mistake when completing my frame and my flowers ended up being on the wrong side but that is alright too because My Sistas  tell me all the time that there are truly no mistakes in scrapbooking.  LOL.  My aunt never liked taking pictures and I can just hear her saying yall better go on with that camera.  Rest in peace Auntie.  TFL.
