Use your custom frames for gifts, cards, layouts, pocket
pages, planners, and more. Today I’m going to show you how to make some photo
frame magnets for the holidays.
These are perfect stocking stuffers or gifts for teachers,
neighbors, grandparents or other family member living far away. It’s also a
great project for using up those wallet size school photos that you have way
too many of. =)
Start by printing and cropping your photos to the desired
size. Then trim some patterned paper the same size as your photos, or you can
cut the paper just slightly larger as long as the photo will fit inside the
frame.
You’ll also need to trim some plain chipboard to the same
size as your paper. This provides stability when you add your magnets to the
back of your photos.
Use the frame punch board to create frames for your photos
(see the video below for instructions). Then round the corners of the photos
and the chipboard using the ¼ inch Corner Chomper.
Watch the video HERE to see the Frame Punch Board in
action.
Once you punched the patterned paper, photos and chipboard,
you’re ready to assemble your photo magnets.
Adhere the photo to the chipboard, then adhere the frame to
the photo using double sided tape or photo glue. If you’d like to swap out your
photos, adhere the bottom and two sides of the frame to the chipboard first,
leaving the top open. Slide your photos in and out as needed.
Add embellishments around the frame, and some self-adhesive
magnets to the back for hanging on your fridge or a magnetic board. I hope
you’ve enjoyed getting familiar with the Frame Punch Board today. Thanks for
stopping by, and happy holiday crafting!
