Housewarming Gift for Katie

Well, one of my co-workers purchased her very first home and she's thrilled (and rightly so!), so I brought to school my ring of Stampin' Up! paper swatches and asked her to pick out two colors...she settled on Barely Banana and Bashful Blue, remarking that those are going to be her kitchen colors. Cool. I'm 1/3 there. Then I asked her for her favorite Biblical verse and she emailed me back with Zephaniah 3:17:

"The LORD your God is with you,

He is mighty to save.
He will take great delight in you,
He will quiet you with His love,
He will rejoice over you with singing."

I purchased a 10 x 13 frame and then of course understood that I don't have any Bashful Blue paper that is 13" long! Eep! So I went to Michaels this morning and found some art paper that is a light blue and hopefully will be acceptable. :)

I used my Pazzles Inspiration to cut out the letters. I was originally going to go with "Katie's Kitchen" but then thought that I'd like to make it more versatile so she can hang it anywhere in her home. Here's the finished product:

Here's a close-up of the butterfly resting on "Home".

It may be difficult to make out, but the letters are inked around the edges.


And finally, here's the project framed:
