I love me some specimen art!
I always change out this pretty little white frame with my holiday specimen art of choice. It makes a quick touch of holiday decor. All you need is paper or material, some of those foam adhesive dots, and a punch or cutting tool.
I wanted to stay with my Valentine color scheme of reds and browns(burlap). Here is what I did...
I made my background using a piece of burlap.
Using my computer I typed the Bible verse I Corinthians 13 over and over to kind of create a book page, if you will. I printed it out on white cardstock and used my cricut to make 24 little hearts. I attached them to the burlap using the 3D adhesive foam dots. The slightly bigger heart in the middle was cut from a red glitter paper.
{Love. Love. Love}
