Step 1

First, cut a piece of cardstock paper slightly larger than your photo and tape it to the back as a frame, then tape the framed photo to your wood plaque.
TIP: If desired, cut your photo into two equal sizes and attached them across to wood plaques, as shown.

Step 2

Add bling to highlight areas and use small flowers to accent other areas creating a 3D image.
TIP: Look at the nature that surrounds the focal point in your photo. Choose embellishments and bling that will accent the surrounding area.

Step 3

Finish by gluing on a larger 3D accent, such as a butterfly.
