My kids gave me this picture frame two Christmases ago and I still hadn’t used it. So, I started looking for ideas to use it, not just for a picture, but something to add to my wall decorations in my room. I decided to find a kit that matched my bedding. Follow along as we turn an ordinary frame into a work of art.
Supplies:
- Every Day of the Year by Sugarplum Paperie
- Scissors
- Punches
- Glue
- Frame
- Stickles
The first thing I did was punched out my shapes. I am using a hexagon punch I have had for forever.
Once I knew I had enough punches to cover my 4×6 piece of cardboard, I poured out some glue and grabbed my brush. I spread enough glue to put down a few punches and just kept gluing and sticking them down as I went.
Once all my punches were glued down, I trimmed the edges to make it all look pretty.
I then took some of my stickles and spread a layer of it over my paper to give it a little sparkle.
Once my picture was dry, I inserted it into my frame. I punched out a couple of butterflies and adhered them to the outside of the frame. I found a few nails and hung my frame.
