"A Thanking We Will Go" Blog Hop

WELCOME EVERYONE !

I'm so excited to be a part of today's blog hop hosted by the super talented Jess @ Kinderstampo ! Did you just land from her blog ? 
If not, make sure you start and end the hop there so you don't miss a thing :) 

By now you have probably figured out that our hop is all about "being thankful" ! If your thankful list is anything like mine, it's never ending, but I would say the number one thing I am thankful for is my FAMILY and that's what this project is all about!

I had this idea to make a "quilt like walling hanging " using patterned paper, frames and family photos and at the top, adding a vinyl cutout that said "Family". The idea has been in my mind's eye for a while and it turned out exactly as I pictured it! 

I'm so happy to finally have it up on my wall and have the opportunity to share it with you !

I have a video, pictures and details to tell you all about it...

details :
16 Malma Frames from Ikea, Mod Pog for decoupaging patterned paper to frame, Clear Acrylic Sheets to use in lieu of glass, Scotch tape to tape pictures in place at the back of the frame, Double sided tape to hang frames to wall, also helps keep frames straight rather than nails.
"Vivaldi" font and my SCAL software to design the "Family" vinyl cut out.

I hope you enjoyed my project as much as I enjoyed 
putting it together.
