Wedding Frame

One of the men that works for my husband is getting married next month, and I wanted to make them a monogrammed frame for part of their gift.  I got the frame from Michaels Craft Store and it is 10x10 with a middle square that is 5x5.  I used the SCAL program to cut everything out with the Cricut.  Using black vinyl, I cut the middle area with the regal font and I split the letter and added the last name to the middle using the Rockwell font.  I used the Rockwell font again to add John and Kristin and Est. 2011. 

I am giving this as a gift, but I think it would also be a great idea to use on the table at a wedding.
I am also sharing this decoration idea over at Decorate to Celebrate.  This is a new blog that Rhonda and Amy are starting.  Their first challenge doesn't start until June 1st, but they are allowing you to update any party ideas during their announcement.  Be sure to go over and check them out and become a follower here: http://decoratetocelebrate.blogspot.com/
