My Little Ducks in a Row


By: Becky Lemire
Off-Road Inksters
Intermediate Scramping Team Designer

My Grandma had some little round picture frames that connected to one another with small hooks hanging in her house with a picture of each grandchild. I don’t really know what happened to those frames, but I have wanted something like it for my six boys (two sons, four nephews). Well, I finally realized I didn’t have to hunt for the metal frames anymore when I found these little packages of frames (made from foam core board) while snooping around the dollar store in the wedding section. Now I have all my little “ducks” in a row on my wall.


Supplies:
Flourishes rubber stamp set (TAC)
Timber Brown StazOn Ink (Tsukineko)
Cranberry Alcohol Ink (Ranger Ind.)
Mini Paper Frame Set (Dollar Tree)
Bazzill Wings Bitty Blossoms (Bazzill)
Prima Flowers (Prima, Inc.)
Gold Mini Brads (Creative Impressions)
Aleene’s Fast Grab Tacky Glue (Duncan Crafts)
Terrifically Tacky Tape (Provo Craft)
Brown Rick Rack (EK Success)
Cut N Dry Foam (Ranger) and Alligator Clip
Picture Hanger
 


Instructions:
1. Drop alcohol ink onto the foam and dab the ink all over the front and sides of the frames (This includes the inside edge of the frame also). When the alcohol ink is dry, Ink up the Flourishes stamp with the StazOn and stamp randomly on the front of the frames.

2. Using the Tacky Tape (or glue), adhere the rick rack around the edges of all the frames.

3. Layer your flowers as desired and put together using a mini brad. Glue one flower (set of flowers) on each frame on a corner.

4. Lay out the frames in a row, front side down, and glue or tape a matching ribbon along the backs so that the frames are now connected.

5. Adhere the picture hanger to the top frame using glue or the tacky tape. The frames are extremely lightweight so the tape will hold.

6. Add photos and hang!
