Love Notes

My friend Tanya made me this ADORABLE gift for a craft swap.  I love the simplicity and functionality of it!  


Items Needed:
8x10 picture frame
Letter Stickers 
Scrabble Tiles
Red Felt
Needle point thread
Rub-ons or stickers
Dry Erase Markers
8x10 Scrapbook paper
Adhesive of your choice

Directions:
1.  Remove cheesy photo that came with frame.

2.  Cut out a thin but long heart.

3.  Hand stitch the outside of the heart and end with a cute bow.

4.  Attach scrabble letters using your adhesive to the scrapbook paper.  Remembering to insert the heart where O would be in the word love.

5.  Using letter stickers attach the word Because to the scrapbook paper.

6.  Add any additional embellishments such as rub-ons or stickers for added cuteness. Just remember to keep this as FLAT as possible.  You don't want anything (aside from the scrabble tiles & heart) to be 3D.

7.  Insert cute scrapbook page into frame.  This will be THICK for the frame and may require you to tape the back shut.

8.  Write a cute note for your loved one and display it for them to see.
