More Desiderata Poems

I never would have thought that decorating a poem in a frame would have
been so popular, but it really is a beautiful poem.
I did a third one for a friend to give as a gift. Another friend saw the one I had done and wanted one for herself, and I did one as a gift yesterday. 
I really like the way they turned out! I hope everyone that receives them is as pleased :-)
I think with the 3 I did yesterday it makes 7 that I have done so far. I still really would like one for myself. I guess I will have to make another trip to Michael's for more frames.
I prefer to use the Shadow Box frames but you can use regular frames. The Shadow Box frames make it so much easier as you have much more room to make it 3D looking.

This was the last one done for the evening yesterday


This was the first one I tackled yesterday morning and was delivered yesterday afternoon

 This was the second one. It didn't have butterflies at first but it need something else, so when I finished the other blue one, I added the left over butterflies. I am really pleased with it now.

Fancy Fold Card

I'm not sure what to call this card as the one I found wasn't in English! I was surfing on Pinterest one day and found an amazing card!! Of coarse I re-pinned it for later cause I had to give it a try myself. The only problem is, its in another language and the measurements are in cm instead of inches. I really wanted to try the card so I printed out her template and tried to convert cm to inches. I made a card with my dimensions and I am fairly pleased with it.   I tried to go fairly simple on the front as the inside is a little bulky. I used a Mojo Monday sketch for the inspiration on for front of the card.  Sketch 319     For the inside I pretty much used her layout but just used different paper.  I am in the Holiday spirit so really wanted it to be a Christmas card.  I haven't used the specialty paper in the Winter Frost Specialty DSP yet so thought it would work perfectly.   She had a template designed, but of coa...

Christmas Cheer Gift Card Holder

     Last year I carried on my Mom's tradition of doing the 12 days of Christmas with my daughter. She had done it every year buy one since my daughter was about 2, I can't remember exactly when she started it... but I can't remember yesterday so... 😂 I decided instead of giving my 16 year old a bunch of stupid things she would likely never use and I would likely toss in the garbage before long, I would give her gift cards instead.  It was a great idea, it was a hit!      Her birthday is Boxing Day so we usually go shopping in the city seeing as it's still a pretty busy day for most families.  She was able to spend around $200-$250 in gift card money so it was all good!  I think doing it that way is a much better way of doing it, what do you think?      I thought I would get a head start on Gift Cards for this year as it is a great way to give a gift and still have the recipient have a choice in what to buy. I have a fe...
