To make these I used:
- plain white printer paper
- pretty scrapbook paper
- matching frames
- printer
- tape
- pencil
First, I found profile pictures (not like on Facebook, like the sides of our faces) of my hubby and I on our wedding day. I cropped them and resized them to fit the frame I was using (5x7) and printed each picture out. I taped each onto a bright window, then taped another piece of plain white printer paper on top to trace. I carefully traced around each of our heads and then even more carefully cut each out (looking back I should have used a nicer paper...but honestly I like them the way they are. :) I glued each onto some pretty scrapbook paper cut to the size of the frame and that was it! Super easy, super quick, and a really nice addition to my fancy shelf. :)
If there are any questions I can redo the project and take pictures to go along, so just let me know!
Happy crafting!
