Crafty? WHAT?

Ok, so I know that I say I'm not crafty, which I really don't think I am, but every once in a blue moon I tend to come up with some really interesting ideas that sometimes turn out cute.  When I first tried to describe this to Tina, I think she thought I was nuts, but now that I've got the paper and stuff picked out and all that "icky" jazz that I don't like to do, I can get down to the nitty gritty.  Here is a preview of what I'm talking about...they are paper-covered canvas (white blank square canvases from wal-mart) that have a strip of two different ribbons for variation, and on top will be letters of my name.  There will be three identical canvases with the same papers and ribbons, but with three different letters.  L-I-Z...duh.  LOL  Sorry about the crappy picture, but it's just a mock-up to show Tabi what it will kind of look like when it's done.  I am also going to try to do a small-ish picture tutorial if anyone's interested??  Also, if anyone has any ideas to do to the black letters to help them stand out more, let me know!  I was thinking of gluing pink ribbon to the side so that all you see is the pink sides and the black top, but I dunno...I'd have to find a ribbon that prety much is the same height as the sides of the letters.  ((oh yeah, these are going on my wall in my bedroom since the colors in my room are black and white with pink accents...))  Soooo, here we are:
