A month or so ago, the FABULOUS Amber from Crop Chocolate posted this really cute wood letter that had banners with her ADORABLE daughter's name on it. I loved the project, but I don't have any adorable little girls.....oh wait, I'm a girl and sorta cute in a middle-aged woman sorta way! I decided to indulge myself and make one for my office door instead of the "regular" nameplate.
My dear husband cut me a K out of wood. Aren't handy husbands great? I covered it with Echo Park's Country Drive Collection paper and slathered it with mod podge. I used Nestabilities dies to cut out the banners and put K A R E N on it. Hey, that's my name! ha ha I pulled out my bird punch and distressed everything with TH summer inks (sent to me as blog candy by the very generous Kathy). I added a flower from UmWow Studios.....And voila!
Disclaimer: I sprained my ankle and finally couldn't take the pain anymore and downed a Vicoden. That's why this post is sillier than usual. My head is swimming - just a little.
Craftily yours,
