Decor Elements Picture Frame




Here's a project I am thrilled to be finished with - and so quickly - less than a year! lol Alright - admit it! I know there are others of you who are just like me - got a list of projects to do, and you keep hoping they'll get done eventually rather than never! :)

I earned this (now retired) Stampin' Up! Decor Element as a Host Benefit last year. I chose it specifically with the inspired idea to do this picture frame. We don't have a lot of things on our walls - I guess when it comes to decor, my husband and I would be called 'minimalists'. But I LOVE displaying pictures of family and dear friends. It will hang in our kitchen table/family room/ homeschool room (hopefully before another year goes by!) This is a BIG frame - as the Decor Element was 12" x 24".

I used Designer Series Paper from the SU! Bella Bleu collection, plus some strips of Very Vanilla. It all came together prety easily, once I spent the time looking through my mounds of photos and pulling out some of my favorite doubles.
