THANKSGIVING INSPIRED PICTURE FOR LESS THAN 2 BUCKS!

I've been lucky enough to have my dear friend Judy here for the last 11 days and we've had an awesome time crafting like we did back when we were neighbors in Montana.  We made some cute seasonal picture frames.  She made a great Christmas one, which you will see a little later on, and I made this Thanksgiving one.

 Judy finds the most amazing things that I sometimes walk right on by and miss.  She found these cute frames at the Dollar Tree for...you guessed it...ONE DOLLAR!!

 Not only did she find that cute double frame that holds two different sized pictures, she also found some great photo mats that came in two colors AND at 4 to a pack, that makes them only 25 cents a piece!!  Honestly.....where else could you ever get any photo mat for under a dollar?  

 I had planned on using the white mat, but Judy made me consider the black one and I'm so glad...it was so much better!  I used a photo from the Graphics Fairy...I love that woman...and some scrap paper which I trimmed down to outline the center oval of my frame just slightly.

You'll notice that frame has two sides and is hinged in the middle.  I wanted to put some text in the other frame, so I googled Thanksgiving phrases and came up with this one, which I believe is a Native American saying.  So appropriate don't you think?

 Here is what my frame looked like when it was completed......

 
 Truthfully....did you ever think you could make something so elegant for under $2?  Who knew?  Judy did!!  Thank you Judy.  I love you and I miss you already my dear friend!
