Hello fellow Hambly lovers! I'm Paige Evans and today I'm going to show you how to make this "XMAS" frame - perfect decor for the holiday season!
First, gather your supplies:
- an assortment of Hambly transparencies, vellum, and patterned paper in Christmas colors
- a large frame (I used a 13x15" frame with an 8x10" opening)
- 3-hole punch
- adhesive
- two pieces of white cardstock
- sharp craft knife
- scissors
- large printed "X"
- "MAS" letter stickers
Here is the actual "x" I used - feel free to print and use for yourself:
3-hole punch about nine times from each piece of transparency/vellum/paper.
You'll have a beautiful pile of confetti!
Glue the "x" onto a piece of white cardstock then trim out the "x" using a sharp craft knife.
Peel off the printed "x" and you'll have a white cardstock "x".
Place adhesive all over the "x".
Sprinkle the confetti all over the "x" and press the pieces firmly.
Fill in any holes.
Flip the "x" over.
Trim around the "x" to remove the excess.
Glue the embellished "x" inside the frame then add "MAS" letter stickers below.
Display in your home and enjoy!
