I have a bunch of scrap boards in my stash, a LOT leftover from my media center from last year. I had this design all put together when I went to look for a board. I found a board that was the EXACT size I needed! How cool is that!
I painted several boards at one time, and designed this in my Silhouette program:

Eduardian Script & Gabrioloa

I painted this board with a creamy color. I then applied the vinyl letters onto the board.

I sprayed a few light coats of Krylon Dual (paint and primer in one)

Looks great, eh?

I peeled the letters off to reveal the original creamy colored board.

Love it!
I really think I’m addicted to making signs! I have made a deal with myself that I am not going to make another one until one sells at the booth. I sure hope I can stick to it. I have put my Silhouette away (off the coffee table into the media center cabinet) to encourage me to wait.
You may notice I staged these signs a little differently. The screws I normally use on the other side of this fence were covered up by another portion of fencing so that the roofers could do the gutters. All the repairs have been made. I can’t wait for it to rain so I can watch my new gutters/downspouts flow the rainwaters away from the house!

ps We just had a good soaking rain, the rainwater overshoots the gutter in the back of the house, there is a hole for a downspout over the garage roof, but no downspout.
The new skylight, which I have never liked, leaks. The old skylight NEVER leaked and I really liked it. hmph!

Loving your signs Gail... why quit now. They are so fun to make that is why you are addicted to them...lol
That is too bad about your leaks... call your insurance company and tell them to deal with the roofer or you will never get it fixed properly. Happy to see you at least have a roof again.
Hope the weather is kind to you this week... it has been glorious here for the past 7 days... dry and blazing hot, but I love it.
Have a great day Gail...
Hugs, Deb
I LOVE your signs and can certainly understand how one could get addicted to making them ;-) Someday I'm going to own a Silhouette :-)))
Good luck getting your repairs done (correctly).
those are adorable! i love the one where you paint over the vinyl and pull it off- i just like that look better. great work!
Love all the signs. As long as the weather is too hot to work outside much I'd keep making the signs with the material you have on hand.
It sounds like the roofers need to come back and make some repairs. Hope they can get there soon.
Your signs are lovely--I love making them too. So much FASTER than a big piece of furniture!
Hope you get your leaks fixed quickly!
I love all of your signs! They all look great!
Love these signs...can you believe I still don't have a Silhouette...definitely on my must get "gadget" list! You have created so many cute projects with it and as always you have inspired me!
really crankin' out the signs now girlie! nice work! :)
As I was reading your first sign, I kept thinking "what a cute font! I wonder what it is!". I was happy to see that included :) I love them all. They are playful without being too "cartoony"
Also, the second sign has such crisp lines! It looks great!
Boo about the skylight!
I like both of them. I'm a little addicted to making signs too.
How kind of you to include the fonts you used.
UGH about the skylight:( Thanks for the sweet comment today! Your signs are awesome. Hopefully they will sell out so you can make more!!
LOVING this!!!
You commented on my blog, twothirtyfivedesigns.blogspot.com, a couple times so I decided to head over, Many thanks!!!
I am loving your blog and am your newest follower and would LOVE the follow back!!
Love the signs, Gail. It's great that you included the fonts as choosing them is the most time consuming part!
Hope you get your roof and skylight fixed ok. What a pain for you!
I continue to be uber-jealous of all you folks w/ a silhouette when I see these kinds of fantastic products?
Perfect!! I think I ignored all the Silhouette posts because I never dreamed I would own one....NOW I gotta lot of catching up to do..
Thank you:-)
