Subway Art

Finally, March has arrived!
And as miraculous as it is, it was warm today!!!
I'm sure we will be teased a bit with the 50's,
and then the snow will return.

But for now, I'm in the Spring mood.
Thanks to a friend, I found this cute blog.
I fell in love with their Subway art
that you can download for free and print as you wish.
They did Christmas, then Valentine's and now...

I'm not much of a holiday decorator,
but I can switch out an 8x10 each month.
So, I went about making it my own.
I bought an 11x14 black frame at Target and
some simple circle damask scrapbook paper at Hobby Lobby.
Then pieced the papers together to cover the mat in the frame.
Printed the downloaded subway art on metallic paper at mpix,
and tada...

It's simple, yet festive.
I'll take it.

Preston tried to get me to promise it would be
my ONE and ONLY holiday decoration for
every.single.holiday,
and then he would admit he loved it,
but I didn't fall for his shenanigans.
I'm hunting for a little leprechaun trinket
just to spite him.
