Scrapping It

Did you hear?  We are redecorating our bedroom!  That means new paint, new art and new a lot of other things.  Knowing that Mathlete is indulging me in this because he knows I will try to do it as budget friendly as possible, I've been playing around with different things for accents in the room.  The first thing I did was frame some scrapbook paper to make "art".  Nothing fancy but it would look good on a dresser or bookcase.
I bought some solid blue and printed green scrapbook paper from Michael's.  Using the frame mat from my Ribba frame, I measured out the paper.  I wanted the blue paper to be the large piece so I used the outer edge of the mat as my guide for cutting.

For the green printed paper, I just cut the paper the inner edges of the frame mat.

I put them both together and into the frame.

A quick and easy decorative item for our new bedroom!  Total cost: $5.32 ($4.99 frame + $.33 scrapbook paper (2 pieces on sale for $.16 each))
