This is so pretty and you did a great job. Can you share how you attached the paper? Did you Mod Podge or just glue? Did
you wrap around the back and sides? It just looks great and I am about to make one for my grandson with Blues Clues paper and I hesitate to start.

Nancy,
Glad to answer--I attached that paper with plain 'ole glue stick. I didn't wrap the paper around the edges, but you could. To make the edges look more finished, I edge them with a matching ink pad. And if I'm joining two pieces of paper on the frame, I usually cover the edges with ribbon or another piece of coordinating paper. I do wrap the ribbon or paper onto the back of the top layer of the frame by taping it to the back, then cover it with the back of the frame (the part that has the easel attached--I separate the top layer of the frame and the easel back before I start). I hope that makes sense!
