From Drab to Fab!

Welcome back to another
Made By Me Monday!


This week, while shopping at Ross, I found a square picture frame. I automatically fell in love with it because it's square! I don't know about you, but I never have good luck finding square frames. This one came with a good price too, $1.99! It had some dents and scratches on the frame, well that just made it even better! :)   So, here's what it looked like when I bought it.


It wasn't bad, just not my favorite and I knew I could make it better! So, I printed off my mom's favorite scripture (this was for her birthday gift), and I basically just scrapbooked it. First, I created and printed off the scripture on to cardstock, and distressed it with an ink pad


added a strip of burlap, a big polka dot flower,
some brads to the corners and some bling!


I LOVE the way it turned out!
Happy Birthday MOM!


 I will be linking up to these parties this week!
p.s. did you check to see if you won the sheet of labels?
I picked 5 lucky winners!

Happy Monday!
xoxo!

    I LOVE this! I was wondering if you could share the print of the scripture, I just don't have that beautiful cursive font! THanks-Courtney @ craftsbycourtney.blogspot.com

    GREAT JOB... absolutely love everything about it... the scripture, the font, etc., etc.!!! I'm sure your Mom was thrilled!! The verse is SO TRUE!!! Would you mind letting me know what font you used on the "greater joy"... (I love the way you did it!!) Did I happen to mention that I love it??? LOL
    Hugs!!!!
