Can't believe I was lucky enough to get my hands on some of this paper! Woo hoo! I used an inexpensive 7 x 7 frame from Ikea. The outside front is covered in the striped pattern. I adhered it with glue stick. With an Expresso paint dauber I covered the sides (in and out) and distressed the pattern a bit. I then used a sepia toned decoupage medium to cover all sides. This helps keep the paper down and puts a bit of a protective finish on the works.
The black velvet ribbon is a vintage piece I've been saving, the flower is a couple of paper flowers layered, glittered on the outer petals, gunmetal stickles around the center - all held together with a glittery brad. I used a StarBucks coffee wrap to make the photo corner, which I swiped with some blue ink and then glittered. The tag is from the Hallowe'en in Wonderland line, I backed it with more cardstock for strength and then outlined it with Gunmetal Stickles. The curly fibers I had. The little Bingo card is from the back of a package from Jenni Bowlin. Lovvvvvve those bingo cards!
When I gift this, I will include a 4 x 4 mat (which I have cut out of the double sided striped paper so two choices) and instructions to crop a picture down to 3.5 x 3.5 for Maximum Good Looks!
