Brian and I love music. Pretty much any kind of music. When we were dating, we went to concerts all the time. Our first “real” date was at Ravinia to see the BoDeans. Which speaking of music, is there anyone out there who is digging Mayer Hawthorne or JD McPherson lately? I love their old school sound! Anyway, I digress.
I have all these ticket stubs…
…and until today, I kept them in a file folder.
I am pretty sentimental. I scrapbook, take tons of photos, save things like ticket stubs. So, I decided I wanted to display them.
This is what the look like now.
I found this idea on Pinterest. All it took was a shadow box, and some things I had on hand, and about 30 minutes during nap time (which left plenty of time for me to take a little snooze too). Since this project was so short, I linked up with Hi Sugarplum for the “In About an Hour” project link party.
I printed some cute font on some scrapbook paper, cut out the letters in little circles using a Creative Memories Punch, and using some double stick tape, taped them to a larger patterned piece of paper.
Then, I just slipped the paper and the tickets in the shadow box I got at JoAnn Fabrics on sale and with a coupon (BOOYA).
Voila! A perfect and sentimental way to display all the cool concerts we’ve seen.
Wouldn’t it be cute to make these for kids too? I’ll get on that.
Right after I take a nap.
