I created this wedding shower gift for a woman I work with. She is very sweet and when I saw this frame idea, I knew she would be a perfect fit for it.
I saw the idea for an "I love you because..." frame HERE at A Content Housewife. She gives great directions on how to make this cheap and easy gift. The hardest part was picking out a frame! This is an 8 x 10 frame from Hobby Lobby.
You use a dry erase marker on the glass of the frame to finish the sentence and leave it in a place that your hubby is going to find it. Hopefully he writes a message back to you too!
I made a coordinating card to go with. I used a matching piece of the silver damask cardstock I cut for the frame to create this easy 4"x4"card.
To stamp on the ribbon, I used StazOn ink. I find that works the best because it doesn't wipe off like some of the other inks I have tried doing this with. StazOn is pretty amazing stuff!
Please come back for another visit this weekend. I am part of a two day fall and Halloween blog hop. I hope to see you there!
I love this idea. My sister's birthday is in a week and she keeps looking at wedding stuff on Pinterest. (I think her and boyfriend are getting close) This would be a perfect present for her. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThe frame is just perfect! In fact I think I might have to make my own for my upcoming anniversary. Thanks Michele!
