HOW MAKE A PICTURE FRAME

Hi Everyone !!!!
I would like to share with you how I make a Picture Frame , it's very easy , just follow the steps.

SUPPLIES
*8x8 Unfinished frame from Michaels
*Acrilicy Craft Paint (any color)
*Scrapbook Paper
*Mod Podge (matte)
*Foam Bruch ( to paint and mod )
*Sandpaper ( or nail file)
*Distress Ink ( or any ink pad )
*Ribbon (optional)
*Embellishments (optional)
*Wall Scraper (or credit card)

THIS IS THE SUPPLIES I'M GOING TO USE

STEPS

1. Coat of Acrilyc Craft Paint on the Sides and Back.
I'm going to use "Blue Jean" Paint.



2- Now 2 layer of Mod Podge .
Let dry the 1st. layer for a couple minutes and then add the 2nd. layer
(don't forget to wash your brush right away)


3-Turn the frame and press down over the paper.


4-Run the scraper over the paper to keep out any bubbles that
you can find.


5-Trimming the paper from around the frame and inside.



7-Sand the edges of the frame (around & inside)


8- Ink the edges (around & inside) and let  the Ink dry  for a bit.


9- Now cover the front an inside with Mod , let it dry for 10 minutes
 and then add the 2nd. layer.


10- Two - 12" strips of ribbon and Embellishment


11- Add the ribbon over the frame and the butterfly


12. Attach the ribbon with staple gun , I used "arrow fastener -JT-12M"
from home depot.

123- This is what you'll end up with.

I hope you like it and let me know if you did one frame,
I would like to see it.
Happy Crafting!!!!
Patty
