Display Tray... a Christmas Gift

I hate to have to place digital snowflakes over this adorable little guy's face, but he's not mine, so I just had to. 

 

Take my word for it that he is totally photogenic. 

 

I had a lot of fun taking photos of him outside earlier this fall, before the snow flew. 

 

And I'm still a beginner with my camera, trying to learn how to take proper photos, so it's fun to have a willing participant.  ;)

 

 

 

I am his daycare provider, and I made this display tray to give to his Mom and Dad for a little Christmas gifty.

 

Some inspiration for this project came from a display tray I saw that was created by the CTMH Art department.

 

These display trays are so nice and very easy to decorate, and they only cost $19.95.

 

The size of the photos and inserts for the sections of the tray are 4"x3".

 

 

 

I used papers from a retired paper pack called Dreamin', but it is currently available as a "While Supplies Last" item on my website for just $2.50!!!

(or for $4.00 with some matching Harvest Charms)

 

Also, a lot of the embellishments that I used are retired, too, but you can find some of them discounted in the While Supplies Last section, as well.

 

 

 

Happy creating!  :)
