This one could be used for any occasion, but I thought the concept would be really cute for the grandkids to do for Grandma and/or Grandpa. Words like Love, Fun, Reading, Books, Stories, Cookies and more can describe their favorite moments with a loved one.
You could also duplicate this craft for a wedding gift. Find phrases or words that signify love either in books or in a bible, cut them out (is that against bible rules or something?) and create a pretty display and frame it!
Don’t use new books, recycle magazine, thrift store finds or something similar. Use an old frame and decoupage a pretty new pattern or paint it to match your matte. There are a variety of shaped punches in scrapbooking stores, aisles at big box stores or on websites like Amazon. Find one that fits – a heart, christmas tree, sand dollar or something similar and go to town!
Here’s a guide at ChalkboardBlue.com – but you could use any frame, and base word, any color you wanted. Make this a Christmas Keepsake or a year round display item!
