Frames
The most basic way to use slide frames is to frame small pictures. You can also use the slide holder to crop and frame a certain section of the picture as a focal point.

You can also frame letters for your title. You can also put individual words in a frame. Frame a small amount of journaling.

Shaker Boxes
Slide frames are perfect for shaker boxes! Create an enclosed square from a page protector. Close three sides with adhesive. Fill the pocket with confetti or mini punches, then adhere the final side closed. Attach the pocket to the slide holder.

Shadow Boxes
Place pop dots under a slide frame to add some depth. This is a great way to protect lumpy or delicate embellishments that need extra protection.

Slide Grouping
Place slide frames touching together or link them with ribbon, thread or wire.

                                                         

Altering Slide Frames

* Wrap fiber around a slide holder that is covered with adhesive. Raffia, twine and ribbon can easily be wound around the slide frame as well.

* Spray adhesive to the front of a slide frame and sprinkle it with sand. Repeat the procedure a few times until you have the desired coverage of sand.

* Stamp (on paper frames or plastic slides covered with paper.) Staz-On Ink works perfect on plastic mounts.

* Chalk (on paper frames or plastic slides covered with paper.)

* Sponge with acrylic paint

* Ink directly on the frame (make sure to let dry completely before touching)

* Sponge with walnut ink on cardboard slide mounts

* Cover with patterned paper or solid cardstock

* Cover with word stickers

* Wrap fiber around one side of the frame

* Tie a ribbon to the top of the frame and add a charm dangling from the ribbon

* Adhere charms, buttons, washer and other small embellishments to the frame

* Hang a small tag from the frame

* Cover entire side of slide with double sided tape and press on tinsel

* Cover slide in double sided tape and press on small beads (micro beads work great) or glitter.

* Drill holes through slides to add brads.

* Drill hole and thread wire through holes then hang a charm from the wire.
