Fabric Frames
Hi! I had a booth at the Oregon City High School Spring Bazaar a couple weekends ago. I decided I wasn't going to go crazy with a bunch of little crafts so I focused on Mother's Day cards and Graduation gift card holders/cards and these frames. I used Designer Fabric and metal found in the plumbing section at The Home Depot. My husband cut the metal down to the 11x14 to fit the frames for me. We used spray adhesive on the fabric so it would stick to the metal. For the little "flower" in the corners, I ripped strips of fabric and then used a needle and thread to put a running stitch along the side, then I pulled tight to make a round flower (if you want to call it that). I used my circle die and the Big Shot to cut out circles and then I hand stitched along the edge and pulled to make a yo-yo. I hot glued them together with a button in the center and a magnet on the back.
I made matching bottle cap magnets using DSP to match the fabric. I punched circles for the inside of the bottle caps (found in the Spring Catalog) and squeezed Crystal Effects in them to make inside smooth and shiny. Hot glued a magnet on the back and that was it. They were pretty easy and quick to put together.
