Instructions for frame blanks:

Start with a sanded sheet of Black PolyShrink. Using a paper cutter, cut the sheet in half long ways.

The punch you'll need is a 2.25 inch square. (The one shown below is from Marvy.)

*Note: Large punches can require a good deal of force to punch through PolyShrink. If needed, you can place the punch on the floor and press with your foot to make punching easier.

With the punch upside down, align the edge of the sheet to the edge of the punch casing. Also seat the bottom edge of the plastic against the bottom of the punch slot. Punch out the first square.

 

 

Next, align the right side edge of the sheet to the right side of the punch casing and punch out the second square.

Next, center the the punch casing between the 2 outside squares and punch the third square.

 

Repeat these steps on the other half of the sheet to make 6 individual frames per sheet of PolyShrink.

Using a paper cutter or scissors, trim top edge of your frames to match the width at the bottom of the set.

You can leave this in one piece for a trio of pictures, or you can cut the 3 frames apart.
