St. Ignatius prayer

Just finished this for the SLUH auction. It is lettered on a piece of wood that we had cut to fit inside this frame that someone had donated--already gold and black. Then I painted the board black, added the gold around the edges, and then lettered "Saint Ignatius' prayer for generosity" in a shiny black in the background--can you see it? I felt like it was going to need a little more interest there. I didn't want the gold lettering too big, so this was my solution. This was the first time I ever really layered lettering on a piece of wood and it worked great. I'm really happy with the final product--hope it brings some money for the school. That prayer is usually our biggest seller.....
