DECORATIVE FRAME USING EARTHEN ELEGANCE

Earthen textures frame

Here's how to create this beautiful decorative frame. You can use any products to make this frame. I chose the Earthen Elegance Suite from Stampin Up.

ALL MEASUREMENTS ARE IN INCHES
FRAME BASE
Cardstock measuring 10½ x 8¼.

On the long side score at
3/8, 3/4, 11/8, 1½, 9, 93/8, 9¾, 101/8

On the short sides score at
3/8, 3/4, 11/8, 1½, 6¾, 71/8, 7½, 77/8
Score down to the second score line at 1 7/8 and 6 3/8 on each short side.

Adhere your inner DSP for the background of your frame. DSP for tray liner measures 51/8 x 7¼.

Before going further, stamp on the back side of the card base where the score lines are. I used the branch stamp from Earthen Textures.

In this image you will see where the cut and score lines are. Cut and burnish all folds

On the reverse side, adhere double sided tape all along to all the outer edges.

On the inside of each diagonal cut, adhere some double sided adhesive for the corners.

Now to fold and adhere - do the LONG SIDES first. Fold in half and then fold over again this should give you the exact positioning of the adhesive tape to form the square shape of the frame.
Adhering the short sides may take a little manipulation and maybe a glue dot to help hold in place but it should create a nice angle on all four corners.
Decorate your frame as desired and add an inspirational quote or even a picture of your choice!!
