Handmade Roses Photoframe

Handmade Photframe 1
Handmade Photoframe
        Dear friends Thank you so much for the sweet comments on the Quilled photoframe my daughter and I  made for teacher's day. Though she wanted to gift 9 teachers this year ,we got time to make only 6 photoframes .This is one of the desktop calendar recycled photoframes we made for this year's teacher's day. 
Handmade Photframe 3
Handmade Paper rose
Made the paper roses and leaves from textured paper using the Spellbinders Rose creations die[Here is the tutorial link : Easy Paper Rose tutorial ] and the diamond vines are bits salvaged from my old dress.The pearly leaves are beads I picked up from a a local fancy store and they are a favorite embellishment of mine!

I love the texture that corrugated paper lends to any project and corrugated paper is my all time favorite to use in making Photoframes! When I made this one I felt it looked very sophisticated. I actually made this one at night when my daughter was asleep.In the morning my heart sank when kiddo exclaimed that it looked so dull!! Maybe I should have chosen brighter and popular colors since I was gifting to her teacher! What do you think girls ?

    Oh no, your daughter was not pleased....that is a funny story. I guess she does go for brighter colors. But, I think it is great and the flowers are beautifully made. Kids are so cute and know what they like. :-)
