Firstly, once my sister moved out of the Girl Cove in the basement, I took over and moved in. I spent an afternoon jamming to Hunter Hayes and cleaning it out of all the daddy long legs and dirt. I also put my profession into practice and rearranged it so that it looks like it is three times bigger than it was originally. After putting a fresh scent of Cinnamon Mango in a Scentsy warmer and opening the windows, I was very satisfied with the end result.
And then comes my Pinterest worthy project, putting some bible verses into these empty frames I found while cleaning the room out. The canvas size for each were only 2 by 3 inches so up came my devoted InDesign and I set up my document size appropriately. To save printer space, I opened a regular letter size and used the Rectangle Tool to draw four 2x3 boxes for guidelines.
Of course I picked some Bible verses that I need to remember in this season of my life. I've been really focusing on being a witness of Christ that these verses are just a really good reminder. Seeing them daily will really be an encouragement.
I've also recently been into colorful colors. Thus I have one that's blue, another green, yet another yellow-to-red, and finally a pink/purple one. I mixed up fonts and typography to get some variety while still trying to keep some consistency so that it doesn't look too incoherent.
The house printer wasn't printing so I ordered a print at Staples and got it colored printed on an 8.5x11 white card stock so there was some firmness. I picked it up a day later and cut out each one separately inside the black lines and framed each.
This is a really easy project but I really like the end result. You can put any phrases you want and it's really all about getting the text set up in a way thats professional but casual at the same time. If you want to know more about how to set up the InDesign file and what fonts I used - or any other specifications - feel free to comment on this post or email me.
