Chevron Baby Frame

April 23, 2013 by Holly Gagnon 5 Comments

My sister is still prego.  We’re waiting on her to POP out lil’ Wylkes any day now so I have  Chevron Baby Frame project to share.

Chevron Baby Card and Frame

Just so ya know, lil’ Wylkes nursery is full blown PBK’s straight out of the mag.  Seriously…

Chevron Fabric Photo Frame

So, to continue with the PBK’s theme, I made a photo frame that matches the awesome Chevron rug in the nursery.  I found the grey Chevron duck fabric at Hobby Lobby and everyone must know it’s awesome ’cause it’s been out of stock like 4 ever!

I painted and distressed the frame, used Mod Podge to adhere the fabric on the front then, wrapped a big green grosgrain ribbon around it securing it in place with Ultra Thin Glue Dots®.

Of course, the bow still needed a little somethin’ else so I added a Citrus Blend button from Button Galore & More.

Now, I couldn’t send off the frame displaying the generic Hobby Lobby insert and since we’re still waiting on photos of the little guy, I made a Baby Subway Art insert by stamping Tanner Bell Designs  stamps on to a piece of card stock and randomly adhering Rainforest CANDi’s using Ultra Thin Glue Dots®.

 

Baby Boy Card with Chevron Embossing

To make the Baby Boy card, I cut a Baby Boy symbol from a Lori Whitlock cut file, then sanded and embossed Coredination’s paper using a  Chevron folder and wrapped grey twine around the card.
