Boys presents

Whew! Sorry it's been so long, it's been a crazy past couple of days! Anywho, I thought I'd finally show some boy presents that I made (obviously, since they are boys... well technically men.. their presents were not as fun..) So, I made this

For my big brother. The quote just makes a lot of sense for him, he's always doing something new and crazy. I made the same thing for my other brother, except in a different color, and his said a quote by Einstein that said, "everyone's a genius, but if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will always believe that it is stupid", which I really just think is a great quote, and he loves fish, so it worked! (:

Basically as you can see, they weren't hard, all I needed was the quotes, some foam board (literally my new favorite craft material), some markers, and some frames ( I got mine in a set of 2 at Micheals for like 7 dollars, I'm officially never buying any other kind of frames!)

 So I got my foam board, and then I penciled my quote on. Both brothers have two sides really on their foam board, because i couldn't erase my pencil well enough and i was trying reallllllly hard to be a perfectionist. and then i just went over it in marker, I think I went over it twice though, to make sure it was good and dark and thick, and then I put it in the frames and BAM! two boy presents, done!(:
