Love Prints {Free Printables}

After making the Valentine's themed banner for the bed, I have been itching to create more handmade crafts for this romantic holiday.  One of the things that I always kept in the memory bank was to eventually make my own prints.  I decided now was a good opportunity.  For Valentine's, I created two prints with the words "LOVE" and "XOXO".  I kept the messages short and simple because the frames I used for this project are smaller than your standard size.


I opted for these small frames because this was one of those projects I managed to do without having to spend an extra penny on supplies (yay!).  I already owned the frames, and if you followed here long enough, you might remember seeing them here before (below, on the left):

 
I used them for my jewellery art project that I made well before this blog existed.  I thought it was time to switch that up a bit.
 
I created the two prints in Adobe Illustrator.  Then, I printed them onto white cardstock because I wanted more weight to them (regular printer paper might do).  I inserted them into the frames, and voila! I had cute and romantic messages on the wall for Valentine's:



 
I realize that not all of you may have a graphic program at your disposal, and if you want to be the owner of these prints, you can! I've provided the links to the PDFs for both prints in three different dimensions below:
 
3.5 x 5                                                                                                  3.5 x 5
5 x 7                                                                                                      5 x 7
8 x 10                                                                                                   8 x 10

Simply click and print.  If you use them, I'd love to see how they turned out for you!

I am linking this project to the following blogs:
