Scripture Art

My husband and I got married a few months ago, but really haven’t put much up on our walls yet. I’m working on a gallery wall of mostly wedding pictures for our living room (more on that later), but we’ve also been looking for a way to display our faith in some way. I’d been thinking about putting some crosses on a wall, but then I saw this when I was looking around on pinterest, and loved the idea of making prints like this one and of several other of our favorite verses. We chose:

I whipped these up in adobe illustrator this afternoon, printed them on some nice linen cardstock we have left over from making wedding invitations, and went out and got some black 8″x8″ frames to put them in. There’s a column in a very prominent part of our house that’s about 10.5″ wide, and now we have the first four of these lined up there. I love the block font for the verse in its little square with the wide white border and the verse reference in the script font sticking into that white border. I love the single red word in each print – they’re one of the first things you notice when you walk in our front door. I love that the red, black, and white fit in so well with everything else in our kitchen and living room. The husband and I are looking forward to making new ones with other verses in the future and switching them out.

I can’t wait until we have people over again and get to show them off
