the NW Q today made me super ashamed

so after having major car expenses during this month our anni AC trip was canceled
we are now just gonna go to dinner
as DH does SO MUCH for us and me in particular I want to give him a really meaningful gift.
I was thinking to do a canvas wedding photo that is very photoshopped in a dreamy vibe and I am not sure if to have some kind of saying on it or not. not sure what the word should be or even if he would like it.
but do u guys think that this is meaningful enough? he loves our photos and told me that sometimes he just looks at them and gets so happy and we dont have a real portrait yet

I am also doing a tiny recreation of the wedding cake

Re: the NW Q today made me super ashamed

Reg, I just want to tell you we had plans to go to AC too and because of $$, we had to cancel too. We're going to go with our original idea of dinner too. And that't it. Don't feel bad

Re: the NW Q today made me super ashamed

i dunno - my DH loves photos too, but i don't think he'd appreciate a canvas at all ...

Jill's question gave me an idea though ... how about making a photo mosaic for him with all your pictures and then frame it? linky
(obv there are other sites that do this too ... this is just the first one i found)

Re: the NW Q today made me super ashamed

Mor that is awesome idea, but I know for sure he wouldnt like it
I know he would like a canvas as not only when I told him something like that exists he was so impressed also I was looking at the site last night and he glanced over and thought it was beautiful (I told him I was just browsing thru sites as I was bored)
I am just not sure that this would be sufficiently special enough

I think that's a great idea!! I like the idea of having a meaningful quote or like Janis did with the song lyrics. I love it!

Re: the NW Q today made me super ashamed

oh then Canvas it is ... i think it's a really good gift

you can make it sort of like a Channa plaque and put your first & last names on it

or write a verse from your first dance song on it

what can it say? we have this thing where we ask each other 'How much do u love me?' and the other person must say 'SOOOOOO MUCH'. so sometimes we just say to each soooo much for no apparent reason
is that cute? or will ppl visiting will be w t f when coming over?

cute!

Not sure how do-able this is but maybe you can also set up the canvas so that the canvas border (the part that's the actual 'thickness', that gets wrapped around the canvas) has the words 'sooooo much' on it ...

does that make sense?
