Summer Picture Frame

July 10, 2013

     My mom has sung the song you are my sunshine to M since he was a little baby.  When I saw this frame project by Echo Park using the Hello Summer line I was just sold on making it for her birthday. I  followed their pattern, but since my picture opening wasn’t in the same place as theirs it’s a bit different.
       I purchased the frame, and the paper pack, at Hobby Lobby on sale and using a coupon.  The frame was actually a beach theme and I just covered it with the blue paper, to mimic the sky, like the example frame on Echo Park.  
       My sun is cut from the Paper Pups cricut cartridge and I used one of the sayings from the paper pack in place of where they had a puppy. M is constantly asking to spend time with Grandma and always comes home happy so I thought it was perfect.  Some of the elements have pop dots, and some don’t, so there is a very nice mix of depth to the frame. 
     I also wanted to share tip with you, that my friend La-Vie shared with me, when doing a project like this.  Since all of the items that extend over the edge of the frame are stickers I kept wondering how I would keep them from sticking to say wrapping paper.  Once stuck down you sprinkle the extra bits with baby powder!  Genius I tell you!
     Are you making any gifts right now?
