I absolutely LOVE the Stampin' Decor line from Stampin' Up! I think it is a brilliant idea, and have bought 5 different ones to put up in out home. Here is the newest addition to my growing collection.
I got a piece of MDF, and got it cut to 20 X 20. I used the Together Forever Frame and the letter B(umm, duh). It will not be staying above the fireplace, it will be on the wall above my couch, with black and white photos of us around it. I will post a picture when it is all finished. Have fun decorating!!
ETA : MDF is medium density fibreboard, and I painted the wood side black with acrylic paint. I then sprayed on a sealer, to keep the paint from being scratched or chipped.
I think MDF is something like "medium density fiberboard", although I'm not sure that's what is in the picture...

Okay - here is the truly dumb question of the day. What is MDF????? I know as soon as you answer I'll be like "DUH, Jill!" but I can't put it together.

So why did you use the "B"? Just kidding, I had to ask!! I really like that idea... may have to steal it from you only use an "M" instead!

Love it. I can't wait to see the pictures of it once you place it on the wall with the b&w pics around it. :)

Looks wonderful! Looking forward to seeing the display you come up with when you add your family photos.

Love it! Can't wait to see the whole wall with pics and everything. Also, I got this and thought of all you girls up north. You've probably already seen it or heard about it but thought it was worth mentioning just in case. There is a recall on some Halloween candy distributed at Costco...here is the info http://www.snopes.com/food/warnings/coins.asp

I'm with ya, girl ~ I LOVE them, too. I have got about a bazillion ideas going through my head for projects to use 'em. I'm adding your brilliant idea to my ever-growing "to make" list.
Happy Monday!
