It's a paraphrase of Micah 6:8; I came across it when I was pregnant and really wanted to eventually incorporate it into his room. I used a frame I already had, as well as the wrapping paper from this project. I had a lot of letter stickers left from the other hangings in the room too. In the end it just came down to getting the handprint and footprint from Micah. Which is easier said than done with a five-month-old. He wanted to make a fist and curl his toes more than helping me out on this one. :o) So we did the best we could, and then I used one of Caleb's paintbrushes to fill in the muddled spots. I actually used Caleb's paint too...it's non-toxic and washable, so I thought it was a pretty good option for something involving a baby.
I'm about 90% happy with it. Kinda wish I had used lighter-colored letters so they'd pop more against the navy blue cardstock, but since I wanted to use stuff I already had I'm okay with it for now. We could always try again further down the road when Micah's a little older (and more cooperative with art projects!), but for now this complements the rest of the stuff in his room nicely. Plus it adds another Scripture to his walls, so that's always a great thing in my book. :o)
