Kasaundra from Fishin’ with the Trouts created a beautiful easy DIY gift. Here is her post:
I found a website that lets you design your own word clouds! You simply input the words you want to incorporate and input them as many times as you’d like that particular word large. The downside is the site doesn’t have a way to save your art, but with a little help from the wonderful Brandon and Anna, I was able to have it printed up at Staples! The frame was one I already had on hand making the grand total of this baby shower gift $1.05! I think it came out wonderful don’t you?! If you’d like to try it go here.
Isn’t it awesome? Great personalized art and gift idea! I actually have used wordle before and made t-shirts and stickers for my daughter’s band. Lots of possibilities! Thanks for sharing your creativity Kasaundra!

Wordle is great also to use to input your wedding vows, etc and have framed as a great 1st wedding anniversary gift. I saved the photo to my cell phone so I have a word cloud of my vows with me all the time. I love the site 🙂
Great idea!!!! It's so inspired!!!
So Cool!!! I'll be messin with this alllllll day today!!! Thanks for the tip!
I just did this project and love wordle. You can go to http://www.cutepdf.com/Products/CutePDF/writer.asp and download the pdf writer and the converter. Then select print and change your printer to the cutepdf. Then you can name your wordle and save it to your hard drive. I then opened the pdf and was able to manipulate it in Photoshop. I made artwork and invitations with it…

I've used Wordle before too, just for the blog though…cool idea!
It would be really nice to do one for each family member and hang them together.
I love this idea! What a fun way to personalize a gift.
Also, sending good vibes to your sweet doggy. 🙂
How would I print this at staples?
My cousin is a computer guru and was able to work some magic so I could take it to staples. I have no idea how he did it. So sorry! But I plan on trying out Sportzmom's advice!
