I love decorating my own home with family pictures and decorative frames! I thought a picture frame would be the perfect bridal shower or wedding gift! Using a wooden frame I decoupaged bridal cardstock using Mod Podge. I am so pleased with how this “Always and Forever” bridal picture frame with Bowdabra bow turned out!
