Signs, Signs, Everywhere Signs...

John, my husband asked me if I would make 4 signs for him for work. Because they are in the process of putting up some Bulletin Boards. Of course I told him I would. So, we went over to Lost Shade Games & Hobbies this morning and I got straight to work. I started out with a very long piece of plywood that was under 4 inches in Length and I painted it with Light Cinnamon Acrylic to match the stained wood shelves in the store.

Then, I cut out at a font size of 3 1/2 inch. I pulled the paper off of the cutting pad and used that to dab the white paint into the stenciled letters with a sponge brush.

Then I used a 1 1/2 inch font size to complete the rest of the wood, so that later he could cut in between it. Once he gets it cut I can add the photo hangers for him.

So, that was my project today. I told him once he got them done and they were hanging up to get a picture of my work on the wall. (And yes, I charged for my time and materials as well)!

Crafting As Usual

Now that I am longer a "business", that means there's more time to bring you some of my creations!
This is one I did tonight using my Cricut. This is the second project I've completed with it thus far!
It's completed and drying and since Facebook is being a pain and won't let me just load the photo. I had to do it blog style!
I still have to find a photo hanger suitable for this cute wood sign! It's $15.00 plus shipping and will soon be available to purchase in the Bonanza shop.

Later on I will be posting the photo's and listing of the Sizzix and Dies up on here as well.

Better Late Than Never

So, after the last show I decided to take a week off to focus on family, Getting things ready for Christmas, and well, just life in general. Next week though I will be right back at it! I will be out at the Staunton Mall in Staunton, VA.
Thank You to everyone who came out to the Fairgrounds last weekend and showed your support! It was great to put names with faces and even see some familiar faces stop by the booth! I took some photo's of the booth set up. I've decided though to invest in some table cloths for the shows after Christmas!

I don't know where I will be after the last show of the season! I'm hoping to pick up some shows in January! I will keep you posted!
