it looked like this last year....
I pulled all the bits off and sanded it back and with a bit of gluing and stamping it now looks like this....
I covered it in old book pages and some bits from old manuscript music books then stamped on it. i used rubons for the star and the word "BELIEVE" and added some embellishments and gave it a coat of crackle varnish and rubbed some paint in to the cracks (taking excess off with a baby wipe.)
Supplies used:
wooden arch (icon)
Stamps: Christmas plate 3 (candle)
Remnants rubs (tim holtz rubons) "believe" and star.

A super bit of recycling - like this version a lot.
Gorgeous as usual with Zuzu...
Loved last year's version, but I think I love this even better, it looks fantastic! Love those neutral sepia tones, the bits of paper shining through, with the black stamping for contrast, great make over!!
Fabulous make over ;)love the super colourway too....so Christmasy ;)

Zuzu!! This is wonderful. I love the three kings looking for a new King (and the crown at the top). That crackle varnish is soooo amazing in the background. And I love the candles that you can see through to the text below. Just marvelous!!! -- Mary Elizabeth
