Hi Everyone,
I’m super excited to be a part of Jo’s Blogaversary Blog Hop. Jo has been a long time follower of my blog and I was so thrilled when she asked me to participate in celebrating her 4th Blogaversary. Happy 4th Jo!
Our challenge was to make anything but a card. So with my new space I thought it needed a sign to welcome visitors to my loft. Here’s what I made.
I started off with a blank wooden sign I picked up from Hobby Lobby and painted it with a coat of gesso. Each of the 4 boards are painted in different shades of my favorite color blue and then dry brushed with the base color from the board below it. I hope I’m describing that correctly.
Here are the colors I used: (the paints are all by Folkart) Sky Blue, Jamaican Sea, Deep Ocean Blue, and Cayman Blue.
The letters are white stickers from Hobby Lobby by the Paper Studio Company. I added a coat of matte medium to keep them from peeling off in the future. Plus I moved them so many times trying to line it up perfectly that some of the corners lost their stickiness.
Jo is giving away prizes during the hop…Here’s how it works.
