Heart of Tennessee Photo Art....




Hello everyone today I am  excited about debuting my first Art Glitter project:

My Heart Belongs in Tennessee Photo Art





I had a lot of fun creating this project. I have noticed that creating your state has been pretty popular over the past couple of months and crafters are incorporating it into their home décor or scrap pages
so I decided to make  this to hang up in our home. The heart represents where we live in Tennessee.

Supplies: First you will need to google an image of your state and shrink it to fit a  Picture Frame of your choice. I choose to use a 11x14 with a 8x10 photo mat, scissors, cardstock , pen, art glitter stamp pad, a small heart of some sort , Designer Dries Clear Adhesive, Ultrafine Opaque Glitter # 291 Fire Engine, Ultrafine Opaque Glitter # 83 Silver,  and Ultrafine Opaque Hologram Glitter #131 Black Hole





Step 1: Trace and cut the state image out of a piece of cardstock and  ink it with your
art glitter stamp pad



Step 2: Now that you have your state cut out it is time to have some fun. Use you your
 Designer Dries Clear Adhesive and spread out onto your state. I did mine in thirds. Using the Ultrafine Opaque # 83 Silver cover your entire state.




Step 4: Outline your state with Ultrafine Opaque Hologram Glitter #131 Black Hole




Step 5: Now take your photo mat and add Designer Dries Clear Adhesive and coat it with





Step 6: Trace out your map with a black pen to make it pop. I added
alphas to spell out my state of Tennessee. Using a red glitter heart in the middle.


Now that you have everything complete place it in the frame under your photo mat
and there you have a beautiful piece of artwork to display in your home
of that special place where you live.






Thank you for letting me share with you my first project with Art Glitter

Wowsers!! Chace is turning 5 today! No longer a baby or toddler. You have been my little buddy staying home with mom each and everyday. My how handsome and smart you are. I have enjoyed every minute being at home with you and watching you grow so much from the little tiny preemie
you were we couldn't even get the diapers to fit you right you were so small, but you are so tall for your age and now wear a size 1 shoe at the age of 5 is something. Hopefully you will be tall like your daddy and big sister Ayla. I love Chace and to mom you will has be my baby. Happy 5th Birthday Butter!

Happy 13th Birthday Ashley


Wow! It is hard to believe that you are now an official teenager. It seems just like yesterday
I was heading to the hospital to deliver you. Your Aunt Brandi was even there to welcome you into the world. It was 1,2,3 bam you where here. Because you were 6 weeks early we did not have your first name picked out. We had several like Ivy, Liberty, Jada and Lauren. We did know that we wanted your middle name to be Brooke, so daddy ended up naming you Ashley and it sounded perfect. I see so much of myself in you that it is scary. I want only the best for you. I love
and adore you. So welcome to the Teen World Ashley. May it be all you hoped for and more.
