Creations, Pretty Posy Floral Frame

Welcome to the first Creative Craft Hop of 2022!

Thank you Sara @Birdz of a Feather for hosting

My craft this month is a flower embellished picture frame

This is a quick and easy craft, no artistic skills required!

I picked up some paper flowers

and a white picture frame from Hobby Lobby

I started by painting black checks around the edge of the frame

with a flat square brush

The right brush makes painting checks a breeze

I used craft glossy enamel black paint

Start at one corner and work around the frame

keeping spaces even

On the last side watch the spacing carefully

so the checks end up correctly

After the paint is dry

Place flowers on frame in a pleasing composition

and then simply glue them on

I used a hot glue gun,

but you could certainly use E6000 or other glue of your choice

These colors are pretty for Valentine’s Day

But this pretty posy frame can be used for any day!

Another easy Valentine craft is a Memory Cube

This one was made from cards

I received from special friends a few years ago

I cut out parts of the cards and decoupaged them

on the sides of a wood craft box

You can see the tutorial for the Memory Cube here
