Got the idea, Again, from a local paper craft store, had to copy it with my own twist! This was fun and I'm making some for gifts. No real stamping here, but you could easily make your own paper (12x12) and decorate with it.

This is the cutest tray ever! Did you use Modge Podge to attach the paper? The ribbon ties on the handles are the "finishing touch"! The lucky person who receives one for a gift is sure to be pleased!

This really is beautiful. Where did you get the tray and the paper? Did you paint the pink border or is it paper? Do tell all!!!
Thanks for sharing this - it's wonderful.

I got the tray from the paper craft store locally, Recollections, there was a set of four that nested for $20. They are made out of something like MDF, but I also made one using a wooden tray 1/2 off from Hobby Lobby. The paper is by KI Memories Christmas collection. I painted the entire tray with acrylic white, then the border around the tray, a pink, cut the paper out, pasted it on with Modge Podge, then cut the ribbon out and framed the paper, and Modge Podged it again. I then used paper for the little lables and rub on "I Believe", added some random glitter, then sealed it with a few coats of gloss sealer. After that I finished it off with various ribbons. Voila, that was it. Pretty easy, but just time consuming.
Thanks for the warm comments, you guys are the best!!!!
