Lets be totally honest....I'm not very good at picking out art. In fact I'm not really a fan of a lot of art thats out there. Even though I'm an interior designer and thats suppose to be my thing, its not! I recently had a discussion about art with a coworker. Nothing too in depth just likes and dislikes, and I came to the realization that I don't have a type or style that I like or care about. I really just like what I like, simple as that.
Now lets not forget that I live with a boy, who has the total opposite design sense from me, so picking out any sort of art just doesn't work. I have been reading a lot of posts over at Young House Love about making your own art from items you love. For an example this is one piece of art they made here:

I took their concept of art and decided to try it out for myself. I had given my boyfriend this great card for Valentine's Day. It has a strong graphic, which is what I love, and you can instantly understand the meaning behind it.
I got a picture frame from Kohl's that already had a white matte board around it to frame the card and not to mention it was on a great sale at 55% off!
All I did was pop the back off, removed the picture place holder sheet, and inserted my fun Valentine's Day card, and ta-da!
I love this piece of art because nobody else has it and its the perfect way to keep sentimental gifts in great condition!
