I was walking through Michael’s last night and found a wooden photo frame that I wanted to turn into a Halloween themed frame. I also came across a pad of Martha Stewart Halloween Designer Paper that was perfect to decorate with. And I knew using my Creatopia to apply adhesive to the paper would make this project simple and easy.

Supplies Needed

Supplies Needed:

  1. Creatopia machine by Xyron
  2. 12 x 12 paper to decorate with
  3. Scissors

I love how the frame turned out and the fact that I was able to create something unique and one-of-a-kind. This project can be used for all sorts of occasions just by using different paper, including Thanksgiving, Christmas, birthdays, and more! How perfect would these be as Christmas gifts? They’re easy to make and affordable.
