This was a wedding gift for my brother-in-law and sister-in-law. My brother-in-law is from New York and my sister-in-law is from Chicago. She moved to New York, they met, they fell in love, they got married…
I went online and googled state outlines for New York and Illinois. After I sized them in Microsoft Word, I printed them onto card stock. I used an X-Acto knife to cut them out and then outlined them using a sharpie. I then glued the states onto a sheet of parchment paper. I used sage but this comes in a variety of colors. I added little hearts to the exact place where they lived and then wrote there names on the bottom. I bought the frame at Michaels. This project makes a great personalized shower or wedding gift for a couple from different states or even countries.
