Subway Art with MDS


So back in August last year I had a close friend give birth to a beautiful baby girl and I was stumped as to what to get her as a gift. Then I remembered seeing some baby subway art online and set about creating my own in MDS.

I contacted my friend and asked if it would be ok to make it for her and she was thrilled. I got all the details like birth weight, length etc, then started work on it and was pleasantly surprised with the outcome.

 
My friend loved it so much she asked me if I could make one for her son also. Unfortunately I don't have a picture of the framed one but this is what the design looked like.
 
 
What do you think? I'm loving the whole subway art trend and they are such a lovely personalised gift which they are unlikely to receive double of so it's a win win situation :) So a couple of months later, with my new love of subway art, I set about creating some end of year gifts for my son's kindy teachers. I saw a few ideas online and borrowed bits from a couple of different ones and this is what I came up with;
 
 
They were printed  on Whisper White cardstock and placed into a frame which was then wrapped in tissue paper and put into a handmade gift bag with matching thank you card. The teachers loved that they each had their names on them and one even said it was one of the best gifts she had every received. Wow I was so touched!
 
So as you can see the possibilities of what you can create is endless and all you need is a bit of time and you have a beautiful unique gift anyone is bound to love. How about you have a try when you have a bit of spare time and send me a picture of what you have created, I would love to see them! If you would like any further details or guidance on how to get started please don't hesitate to leave a comment. If you would like me to create a personalise subway art for someone special please contact me for details. Until next time, take care!
