Brag Monday ~ The Graphics Fairy

Here's a graphic that I love and have wanted to use for a few months now. "Keep Calm and Carry On"; it's all over the place! So, when Karen over at The Graphics Fairy offered it up ~ and in two colors no less, I jumped on saving it until I decided how I wanted to use it.



After seeing it most recently over at Beth's The Stories of A to Z blog, I knew I wanted to do something similar.

Beth at The Stories of A to Z

I found an old 8 x 10 frame in my closet, pulled out my package of black & white scrap book papers and printed the graphic out in a 5 X 7 size. I used the backing of the frame to measure the scrap book paper and cut that to fit. Then I just used my glue stick to glue the graphic onto the scrap book paper.

I realized afterward that it is not totally centered, but if it winds up bothering me that much I will just redo it. I really have to wear my reading glasses for everything now.

I love that this basically cost me nothing to make!

Whoops! Almost forgot. Got a bonus out of this, too. When I found the 8 x 10 frame I also found this 5 x 7 frame, which was the perfect size for Karen's Trick or Treat Owl!

If anybody is interested in being Blog Of The Week, please email me. I am looking to add blogs to this list. The only thing I ask is that your blog posts incorporate text and pictures {as opposed to all text}.
