My first name frame! It's for DS#2's teacher. DS#1 said it was cool (so I guess I should just take the compliment and run with it), but I'm not sure if it's too goofy. I was looking for clean and simple. Nothing froofy.
I'd love your honest opinion and constructive criticism. Thanks!

I like it Debbi - great job. My only suggestion would maybe me to somehow get the background paper to fill to the sides of the frame or have the sides red instead of black so it fills the frame. I'm sure he'll love it!

Cool name frame - it's definitely not "froofy". Your son's teacher will love it! The red/brown color scheme is crisp and the dimensional stickers add personality. Nice job!

Ha! I was all ready to give you the critisism you asked for, but none is needed! This is awesome Debbi- REALLY! And to think it's your first. Fantastic job. This will make such a wonderful gift.

Yeah, this is cool! I never thought of doing a little scene along with the name! What a great idea! I'm imagining tons of possibilities now!! What size is this frame?

Debbi~I love this! Fantastic background paper for your project! I do agree with Julie about filling the outer edges. Maybe matting the bg paper with Chocolate chip and WW. I think the teacher will love it! TFS

Julie & Mary, thanks for the comments. The bg is matted with chocolate chip - both ruby red and real red didn't work. I tried white too, but that didn't work. Just tried stippling ruby and chocolate on white, but DH didn't like it. Think I'll just leave it the way it is. Thanks for your suggestions.
