This project was so easy! It took me, literally, five minutes to do. All you need is a frame (this one is from Ikea, probably about $5.00), some pretty and romantic scrapbook paper, and either a black pen (probably a felt tip would be best, or a calligraphy pen) or a stamp and black ink. I had to use a stamp and ink because I do not have a good black pen. It doesn't say "I love you because..." like it is supposed to, but the result was still beautiful and it gets the same point across.
Step 1: Measure and cut out your scrapbook paper to fit the frame. It doesn't have to be perfect because any uneven edges will be hidden by the frame edge.
Step 2: Take your pen and write your phrase, quote, or whatever you like on the scrapbook paper. Or, use your stamp like I did. :) Allow it to dry if you do not have the quick dry ink.
Step 3: Take off the back of the frame, remove the contents and replace with your scrapbook paper. Secure the back of the frame in place, and tada! So simple!
There you have it, your own "I Love You Because..." frame (or whatever you choose to make it). The glass frame will act the same way as a white board, so you can use a dry erase pen to write your messages right on the frame. Now, if only I had a dry erase pen... :(
