Two Wooden Frames for an OverlayCompleted by Peggy Stogdill

Printed on matte photo paper. I used these to frame two antique postcards and love how they turned out-they look so real! I left the postcards in their transparent sleeves so they wouldn't be compromised, then used DST to attach them to a card.

I cut out the frames, then finger-shaped them so they would round up in the middle, then ran a thick bead of silicone gel down the center and a flat application on the outer edges.

When I mounted them onto the card, I used my thumbnail to press down the outer edges, leaving the center high and rounded and the inner edges slightly raised off the postcard.

Simple and they really make you look twice to see if they're "real".
