Where have you lived?

I had been working on Christmas gifts and this is one of the projects that I did for my 23 year old daughter, Lisa.

These three framed states represent the three states that she has lived in so far. Lisa was born in Tulsa, Oklahoma, and raised in Quincy, IL.

She is currently living in Madison, Wisconsin. Using my Silhouette Cutting Machine, I cut out each state shape and had the cutter also cut a heart at the approximate location of the city.  I placed a green paper on the back to cover the heart area so it would show a green heart in the front. I then attached it to backing paper that fit the frames.

A simple yet personal gift. A post note, My daughter really loved these at Christmas time. She is preparing to move again and wants me to make another one for her next state! Good thing I have one more frame like those above to use!
