Baby Announcement Frame

Designer: Deb Perry

I absolutely love to think up new ways to use Fiskars tools, and theis neew Pop-up Punch design was no exception.  I loved the shape of the sun, however when punched out of  irridescent white paper it has a very soft flowery feel.  I discovered it to be the perfect embellishment for this Baby Frame and makes a perfect shower gift for that mother-to-be.

Instructions (Print version)

  1.

  2. Adhere small rub-on borders to inner edge of frame with Tool Taxi’s Stylus.
  3. Punch out 22 stars from white irredescent paper.  Cut two of the punched suns in half to use on each end. Adhere to frame top and bottom in a horizontal line.  Add pink Dot Stickers to center of each sun.
  4. Cut a 12 inch length of Sheer Ribbon and tie bow around  right side of frame.
