Today, I want to share with you a tutorial on How To Make Amazing Paper Frames For Wall Art. I use the word amazing because not only are these frames made out of paper, but you are basically using a box template to make your own framed wall art. To cut the frame and art designs, I used my Silhouette CAMEO, but if you do not have one yet, you can make your wall art decor by hand, just by using the free version of the Silhouette Studio software. Want to make your own? Read on for the step-by-step tutorial!
