the essentials
The walls and table tops throughout my
home are covered with a variety of
frames. They hold photos and memories
that I never want to forget, and I cherish
every one of them. So, I guess it is only
natural that I gravitate to frame
elements in my papercrafting, too.
By its very definition, a frame is a border
or case that encloses a mirror or picture.
On scrapbook pages, frames help to draw
focus to your photos, and also add depth
and dimension. What better way for your
photos to say, "Hey, look at me
!
" than to
embellish them with a frame.
I’ve created a few examples of how you
can introduce frames into your
papercrafting. Have a look and, in the
spirit of Tim Gunn, "Use your frame
embellishments thoughtfully and make
it work
!
"
From a 12x12 sheet of framed
patterned paper, Vicki created
a wall-inpsired masterpiece!
