Greeting Card Mat (Part 2)

Step 3
Cut piece of coloured cardstock 0,5 wider and 0,5 longer than greeting card.

Step 4
If you’d like to laminate your picture frame mat, laminate both the greeting card and the coloured cardstock separately at this point. Cut out greeting card centre again and trim all outside edges.

Step 5
Carefully tape the photograph to the back of the greeting card, with photograph facing out from printed side. Then centre greeting card on coloured cardstock and glue. Set aside.

Step 6
Using black ink pad, ink baby in highchair rubber stamp and stamp onto white cardstock. Let the ink dry completely. Colour the image, using markers and then cut out. Laminated, if desired. Trim excess laminating film. Position ‘baby in highchair’ image on front of greeting card and glue.


Step 7
Attach entire greeting card mat and photograph to recycled or new picture frame backing with stand.
