I did the same design on each of the photo spots,matching 2 photos together. I did some hand stitching & some distressed layers. I did stencil work under the ATC frame,using the prima gate stencil upside down. I left some of the chipboard raw & the rest I either used picket fence crackle,or texture effects…..
