Photo Frame From Cereal Carton

This is my first  hand made photo frame   out of  a cereal box . When I have seen many cartons being trashed  I have got this idea of making a photo frame .
I first made out a outline how to make and then started to work on this .



All you need :
One carton (I used cereal box)
Scissors
Glue (I used Emler's glue)
Some Glitter (I used Silver as well as Gold Glitter powders)
One fabric Paint
Tissues for extra touch up.
A clear polythene used to cover  and protect the photo

Optional
One heart shaped stencil (I drew with free hand )

    • This is completely made from cardboard. Two heart shaped card boards attached with a strip of cardboard.
    • Embellished with , finely  rolled tissue paper which is dabbed in gold glitter.
    • Outlined with stone stickers (you can opt even kundans or stones )  




    • I even gave a  opening at the back convenient to change photo .
    • When the paint is almost dry I dabbed it with tissue papers to give rough look on sides
