Hi, it’s Christine here today. I’ve chosen to decorate a small white box frame, it’s really straightforward and with the new E-Z Dots® Permanent, it is speedy too!
Firstly remove the back and glass from your frame.
Carefully use the glass as your guide to cut a background from patterned paper. I used Webster’s Pages – Messages to You collection.
Using your E-Z Dots Permanent, adhere the patterned paper to a piece of cardstock, cut to the same size, this just strengthens it a little.
Insert glass and replace back onto frame. You are now ready to decorate.
I’ve chosen to make some pretty flowers from Spellbinders™ Bitty Blossoms. You can use your E-Z Dots Permanent because it adheres to tiny areas as well as large.
I’ve placed some 3D Foam Squares – White into the corners of the frame. This allows me to build up a base for my flowers.
I’ve added some leaves and pearls to the flower middles.
And it is complete – simple, speedy and pretty – a great gift!
Thank you for stopping by today. I’ve listed the brilliant sticky products I’ve used.

What a gorgeous project Christine! Love the box and of course specially how you have created it and made it into such a fabulous piece. I also have to say that 3L make the most amazing scrapbook adhesive. I discovered them while in the States and they are way better than anything else in my opinion. So glad they are now getting better known in the UK!!

Wow Christine, I would be so chuffed if someone gave me this as a present. How lovely and the frame itself was such a good price – it looks so totally different with the flowers added. Brilliant idea.

This is a lovely project Christine. I tried to get some frames today but our local Primark didn’t have them so I’ll have to try another branch because I really want to have a go at this one.
