Silent Saturday? Instead of a Wordless Wednesday?
I wanted a personalized house-warming gift for my friend who recently moved out of state.
Capital "M" for the their last name.
State Maps from where my friend:
1. Met her husband
2. Had her kids
3. Moved to recently
Template
Cut around the cities where she lived.
Tore edges and overlapped the map pieces.
Sealed with Mod Podge in matte finish.
Done!
I really liked how this turned out...think I'll make one for us. Its a fun way to tell our story.
Super adorable, what a great idea. I want to make one now!
