Photo Display Board

It could be for any occasion really, any sort of party, but this one that I made was for my nephew’s graduation party last month.  I bought a trifold cardboard display thingie from Walmart for $5, covered with wrapping paper I got at Big Lots made by American Crafts.  Did you know American Crafts made wrapping paper?  I sure didn’t and I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw it!  haha 

I made the big graduation caps, the stars, and the “Congratulations Graduate 2009″ words on my Pazzles, cutting them out of cardstock.

The above board was done with his senior portraits that I took myself, so I thought it looked spectacular, of course!

I wanted to do another board with his childhood to now photos on it, but I could only get 2 rolls of the wrapping paper and needed both of them for the first board so I came up with another idea for displaying those. 

I took some antique wooden window shutters from my basement that came off of my own windows years ago and used binder clips to clip the photos onto the slats of the shutters.  I used my Pazzles machine again to cut out those words out of cardstock and used Glue Dots to attach those to the top of the shutters.  Can you see it says “Troy Through The Years”?
