Before
I wanted to use black acrylic as a base but when I looked in my stash I found none!!! So I used a sharpie marker and coloured the whole of the wood with it.
I then cut some metal and once again coloured that with the sharpie (I only have the aluminium metal and none of the colours). I then embossed the metal with some CB embossing folders and sanded them once done. I stuck the squares into each corner and then made a grid with some window leading. I finally cut the words and coloured them with a silver pen.
After
Apologies for the naff photographs (photography isn't one of my strong points).
