To craft nice and sturdy frames I suggest working with cardstock paper. You can find nice color set online. I especially like this one and this other.
The bone folder is an optional tool. I like to use it as it helps to make nice and clean paper crease. It only cost a few dollars, so if you like making paper crafts is a smart investment to make.

Cut the shape following the straight lines and fold following the dotted lines.
