Well I made a shabby blog button for you, or you may like to use the image in your digital scrapbooking or artwork. Yours to use as you'd like. I love the sepia and distressed look of this little gem. A good reminder for us that no matter what happens we can always have Faith, Hope and Love.
It is based on this scripture:
And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love. I Corinthians 13:13
The colors and method I use for completing this project depends on the bride and groom's taste. If you use photo editing software, you could digitally add a background before you print it out, or print it on paper that already has a design (would need to be light). The last one I made, which is pictured below, I printed on vellum with brown ink, had a bright pink scrapbook paper under the vellum, matted it and framed it. I usually do a 5x7 picture with an 8x10 frame.
The silver frame included the mat and my choice of monogram letter. I often find my frames and mats at "The Christmas Tree Shop". They are inexpensive and usually have a selection of distressed frames which I like. It's probably my most favorite place to shop, although thankfully (for my husband) it's quite a distance from my home and I don't get there that often.
Hope this idea inspires you.

I just LOVE this Verse. It is full of such wisdom. And, it applies to all types of love...but of course is used most often, I would think for weddings. The lessons in the Scripture apply to love for a friend, for example.
ReplyDeleteI love your idea for wedding gifts! Your sample came out beautifully...and now we all know your anniversary! LOL
