Owl Themed Picture Frame request

[Fec]

Hello, everyone.

 

So a while back I used a pattern I found here to make an owl trivet for a friend. She loved it so much that her boyfriend has asked me if I could make him a "kitschy" owl picture frame for him to give her as a Christmas present.

 

At first I considered just making that pattern larger and cutting a square in the middle to adapt it into a frame but after thinking about it I'd rather not just give her another version of the same pattern. 

 

So, is there anyone willing to try to come up with something for this? I have no artistic ability so drawing one up myself would not work. I don't have any specific details for this idea other than it be cute, involve owls of course be a picture frame.

 

I'm sorry to make such a vague request and I understand if it's not doable. I've searched all around and I just can't find anything that I feel would really work beind adapted into a frame so I'm giving this a shot as my last chance.

 

Thank you for your time.

How large of an image should the frame be designed to hold?

D'oh! Knew I forgot something. Just big enough for a regular snapshot photo. 4x6 I think.

Thanks for sharing your great design. I hope you don't mind but I took a copy for myself.

Does this help at all?

Thank you MrsN. I took a copy of this one also.

Hey thanks a lot to both of you for the patterns. I'll show them both to my friend and see which one he would rather have. Great work and surprisingly fast too.

 

On second thought, I could even take the small owls and lettering from MrsN's pattern and add them to Bob's.

You already have two great patterns, but i was thinking something like this might be fun.  The problem with this is that it's 11" high!    I didn't start out to make it that big, it just kind of grew.. 

I like the other patterns, nice work Katie and Bob, i hope you'll post a picture of whatever you decide to do.
