I knew with working on my gallery wall in my entryway I wanted to include some pieces that were art and tied in some of the color that I am trying to bring into my home, but not necessarily photographs. I already made a
wooden welcome sign. But I wanted to make one of these date signs that would be significant to our family.
You can add whatever dates you want. Some ideas would be family member's birthdates, anniversaries, your first date, your engagement, the date you bought your first house, the date you found out you were pregnant - pretty much whatever is significant to you!
I originally saw the idea for the design at
Andrea Steed's blog.
I used my
My Memories Suite software to create a digital file. (I have seen projects like these done in Photoshop, but honestly I am still a little scared of that program.) The above image took me about 10 minutes to make with my scrapbooking software.
