I love creating with the new Wonder collection from Crate Paper. I am always inspired to create something for "baby", as the darling images and phrases, seem so fitting for a little one. Today I've altered a frame that's been floating around my house, and dressed it up to fit perfectly in "baby's" room.
I first chose paper to create my background and from where I could build my focal point. I wanted something a bit darker than the frame so that it would be stand out from the white border. Next I added a die cut Bingo card from the Ephemera pack, and adhered it to the center of my frame.
I then added a bit of trim around the opening of my frame, to soften the sharp edges a bit, and added Wonder chipboard flowers and garland near the top, and a chipboard heart and flower in the bottom corner.
I have been waiting patiently to use one of the darling die-cut animals from the ephemera pack, and chose my favorite one to place in the center of my frame, followed by a sentiment and small velvet flower.
Creating altered frames for special occasions is one of my most favorite DIY projects. They come together so quickly and make a special event, or person, even more special :).
