DIY'Days

New Project! 

All about love ♥


Okay well in my craft madness I realized I was making things to enlighten my home, but nothing really for me and the Mr. 

Until I saw this
And I thought, that could be just places you love to go, or want to go, or first date....lightbulb.


So what I did was first found a little frame about 7x6, it's black for what it's worth.
Then I tried to think of important place to MisterGeeker and I. Well...
There is Denver, Colorado. 
I have the movie stub of our first date still sitting in my billfold. Which is Monopoly themed by the way.
So I cut out Denver in a little heart.
First Date.

There is North Platte, Nebraska.
It was a road trip so he could meet my old friends there my step-brother. 
The circle was totally random.
First road  Trip.

There is Rapid City, South Dakota.
We finally managed to get our own place together, with our little Mutt-Face. When we moved in, we had a basic stocked kitchen, T.V, couch, folding table, bed, computer, dresser, lamp. Now we have everything we basically need, have decorations and pictures on the wall and after nearly a year, it finally feels like Home
First Home.
Also, cut that out as a little house. sqeee!

The happiness I felt while making this was amazing. Thinking about these memories, some nearly 4 years old. (I know whhhaaatt!)
Time flies.

Anywho, I've had my fill of sappiness, TIME TO CREATE!!!
I cut out each label (and dang it didn't take pictures of the steps.) arranged them how I would like them laid out in the measurements of the frame. 
I did a little vine-y filigree around the sides to kind of spruce it up a bit. 
outline the words in black marker then began gluing!! Mwahahahaha!

and Voila! 
Craft!



This is tre' cute and super great to make :) took about oh, an hour but that's because I wanted some cute font and could not decide for the life of me. I know this is like uber girly, but when MisterGeeker saw it...
We hugged.
It was great.

Winning.

Okay! MadamGeeker, signing off!
