Gift Set Featuring a Photo Folio, Personalized Frame, & Gift Tag
Tutorial by Anastasiia Tysevych
“Hello to all creative souls!
Sometimes you just want to dive headfirst into the colorful world of our favorite papers and bright little embellishments—and the need to create a big gift for loved ones is the perfect excuse to do just that.
This time, I was creating with the incredibly sweet and cheerful Hip Hip Hooray collection featuring Graphic 45, and I truly enjoyed every bit of it—from the stunning paper pads to the fabulous rub-ons.
I also filmed a tutorial to inspire you, where I show how to make a gift tag, how to personalize a ready-made photo frame, and in the final (and biggest) part of the video, I take you step by step through creating a fun and functional photo folio designed to hold lots of 4″ x 6″ photos.
