Now let me show you how I created these little lovelies!
Instructions:
First select the frames you want to work. (I choose these three frames.)
A tip before starting: Remove the paper backing to reveal the adhesive on each of the frames. Lightly sprinkle them with baby powder to remove the stickiness.
............................................................................
Take a piece of scrap chipboard and cut a back and a stand for each frame. Use a bone folder or other such tool, to score the chipboard a 1/2 inch from the end for each of the stand pieces.
...........................................................................
Back: 2.75 x 3.25 inches
Stand: 1.75 x 3 inches
Back: 3 x 2.75 inches
Stand: 1.75 x 3 inches
Back: 2.25 x 2.25 inches
Stand: 1.75 x 2.75 inches
Cover the front and back of each piece of chipboard with a coordinating pattern paper.
Cut thin strips of double sided foam tape and run it along 3 sides of the back piece. This will leave an opening on one end that will allow you to insert a photo into the frame if you would like to.
Remove the tape and adhere this to the back side of the frame.
Remember to keep the side with no tape at the top!
The back side...
...and the front side!
Adhere the stand to the back of the frame.

Here are some close up images of how I embellished my frames.
For the chipboard shapes: Adhere patterned paper to the chipboard piece. Cut around them and then sand the edges. Add Stickles and a gem for extra sparkle and shine!
For the flowers: Layer the fabric brad with the felt flowers for a quick and easy flower embellishment!
Supplies:Patterned Paper: Homespun Chic Collection Pink Sparkle Glitter and Homespun Chic Collection 8 x 8 Specialty Paper Pad
Embellishments: Homespun Chic Collection Layered Frames, Homespun Chic Collection Fabric Brads
Chip Art - Chipboard Shapes: Butterflies and Birds
Other: Stickles by Ranger, Gems by Me & My Big Ideas and Kaiser Craft, Felt Flowers by Stampin' Up!, Double sided foam tape by 3M
Happy Hugs!
