Making your own Poloroid Frames

Poloroid photo's are making a comeback big time, especially the little mini ones, they are so cute.  I was blog surfing the one day and came across someone who had made their own ones, so I decided to give it a go, but instead of using the usual white frame I decided to go with Black.

Here is a little frame I made and embellished using the Amy Tangerine Sketchbook - Remarks - Doodle embellishments.  They are really easy to make and it's something different to try on your layout,










Firstly you will need to get some cardstock (choose any colour) and cut it to measure approximately 3.5inch wide by 4.5inch long, using a corner rounder, shape each of the edges.

Next you need to measure a square in the middle to measure approx 2.5 x 2.5inch and cut it out

Turn the frame around and adhere some double sided tape as shown in the picture below, and attach your photo.  Embellish the frame as you wish, you can doodle around the frame, add some bling, emboss it through the cuttlebug to give it texture, or even just leave it plain,

Your frame is now complete and ready to place on your layout.  I made another one which was slightly smaller (measured 3inch wide by 4inch long).  I have doodled around the inner edge of the square to add a little something extra.




here is the full layout using the GORGEOUS Fun Filled, bright coloured papers from the Amy Tangerine Sketch Range of papers.  I think the black frames really compliment the colours of the papers really well and draws your eye to the photo's but the colours really make it look soooo FUNKY.

 

Products used for this layout, Amy Tangerine Sketchbook - Remarks - Doodle (American Crafts), Sketchbook - Fabric Brads, Sketchbook Paper - Kristi's Craft, Sketchbook Paper - Harper's Hu, Sketchbook Paper - Gabys Gallery, SMASH Tape - Swatch, Manor House Sprinkler Flowers, Lime, Pink and Teal, American Craft Amy Tangerine Thickers.

Here are a couple of close up shots to show off those gorgeous embellishments.... I cannot rave enough about them ladies, honestly they are just FABBO.....

 

 I think this is by far my most favorite range of papers at the moment, I absolutely LOVE the colour hues, the washed paint look, the funky patterns and the brightness of them, and combined with all the little nick nacks which come with the range, you will have well balanced GORGEOUS pages which you are extremely proud of.

TFL & Happy Scrapping
