Cased Home Decor for Heart2Heart

I wanted to make some home decor for the Heart 2 Heart challenge. I had a bracket frame laying around, so I looked for an idea. I found this one from Pamela OConnor. I liked it so much that I barely changed anything! The printout is from prettydarncute.com.


I love this Bible verse. I hung it in my craft space, to remind me why I do what I do. I do it all for God, not for recognition. It's hard to remember that sometimes.

Materials used:
B&T: Dakota
Cardstock: White Daisy, Honey, Pear, Cotton Candy, Sky
Other: My Creations Bracket Frame, Art Philosophy Cricut cartridge
