Good Morning! Today I have an 8x10" Magnetic Picture "frame" I made for my Niece's Bridal Shower a few weeks ago. She got married in Las Vegas this past weekend. Congratulations to Katie and Tom!!!
I first saw this done on my friend Liz's blog in a 5x7" size. I made this one larger so more than 1 small picture or one large picture would fit easily. I had to use a roll of Roofing Flashing which my hubby cut for me. The small roofing tiles the home improvement stores had were all aluminum, not magnetic. Before I decorated the board I but Memory Foil tape along all four edges so they were no longer sharp. Then I attached the paper and embellishments. The magnets were black and white. I used some Vintage Photo Distress Ink on them to make them match the board.
Supplies I Used:
Roofing Flashing cut to 8x10"
Memory Foil Tape - Ranger
Rolled Flower die, XL Label die, Camera Shy Stamp set and Floral Sentiments stamp set - My Creative Time
Blossomwood 12x12 Paper Pad - K&Company
Vintage Cream and Dark Chocolate Card Stock - Papertrey Ink
Dark Walnut and Vintage Photo Distress Inks
I also made some Thank You notes for her to use.
Additional Supplies:
Opaque Embossing Powder, Snow
Irock and gems
Scallop Border Punch - Fiskars
Celebrate It Ribbon - Michaels
Leaf Punch - Martha Stewart
I hope you enjoyed today's post. I appreciate all my followers and the comments they leave for me! Enjoy your day!
Love and Hugs,
