Picture Frame for Easton's room



I was reading on a blog the other day (and I wish I could remember which blog) but she was mod podging a picture frame. (which I love do) When she puts her paper on the frame she first puts her paper in water..... so I had to try it......


I cut out some flowers with my cricut, I started with a 4" flower and worked my way down to a 1" flower ending up with 8 flowers all together.


....Then you spray your flowers with water a scrunch them up. I only let mine sit for a minute and then I unfold them and stack them on top of each other.


take a brad and secure the layered flowers together


...and wa-la!! you have a beautiful layered flower!


Back to the mod podge frame. 1. I painted the inside of the picture frame pink 2. i traced the frame onto paper and cut it out 3. then I mod podged the top of the frame (sorry, I was bad about taking pictures of this part) 4. and then I took my paper and ran it under water and placed it on top of the frame, while its still wet I added one more layer of mod podge.

  1. I'm jealous of everyone who has a Cricut and even more jealous that you've used it so well here! The papers you chose work really well together.

  2. This turned out so cute! I totally thought the flowers were fabric and not paper! And I am so trying the mod podge technique now too!! LOVE it!
