Cut-out picture frames

[Trpta108]

I have been looking for ages for some ready-made card cut-out frames for the children's paintings and drawings, so a4 and a3 sizes, but cannot find them anywhere. Does anyone know where I might be able to buy these?

The Range do them, if you have one! x

Thank you for your reply! Unfortunately I don't have one near here. I had a look on their website though, but can't seem to find it there. Do you know what they call them , so I know what to search?

What do you want them made of?

[Trpta108]

Card or cardboard. I just want to use them to frame lo's paintings etc for displays and bringing home to make them look even prettier

Can you use photo mounts like the ones you put around photos before putting in a frame!! Haven't googled them but I am sure you would be able to get them on line from somewhere, probably Amazon, I haven't found anything they don't sell yet!!!

Thank you for your suggestion! I had a look, but unfortunately they are a bit pricey and not big enough I know I have seen them somewhere before, just can't remember where.

Just googled some, try picturelizard.

could you make them? I have a foam board with made up borders that are changed with seasons, themes etc and coloured paper for background

Thank you for your suggestions, will have a look.

I just stick the pix bigger onto a sheet of thick paper or card thats about an inch bigger all round.
If the children have been doing 'free' painting or something similar, then I cut the picture into a different shape-not just square or rectangle-then do the same with the paper or card that I stick it to.Adds a bit of interest to a wall display!

That's a great idea! Thank you
