Hybrid Frame Post May 17

I am filling in for our hybrid hero Géraldine this month and I am going to be making a super fun and super easy hybrid paper frame. I found this tutorial on the paper shape website https://www.paper-shape.com/ a little while ago and my hands have been itching to give this cute project a go so.... here we go.

I started with a piece of white cardstock that I printed front and back with paper 2A and 8A from my recently released Botanica Collection. After both sides were printed I ran the paper through the printer once more to print the 7,5 x 10 cm template provided on the paper shape website over one of the patterns. https://www.paper-shape.com/de/blog/bilderrahmen-basteln-papier/





Here's the tools I used. A cutting matte, metal ruler, hobby knife and scoring pen.



Now the fun really starts. I cut the template out of the paper and ran over all indicated dotted lines (fold lines) with a scoring pen for easy folding.



Then I started folding all the flaps except for the right one because that's the side I used for sliding in my photo.



Then I measured the space for my photo and printed it along with a dymo and a flower also form the Botanical collection







Once that embellished photo was in place I folded in that last part.



And that's it!!!

Here's what it looks like on a plank in our cloak room.
