Wood Sign - Baby Boy

By Angela
 
Everyone always talks about "wedding season", but what about "baby season"?  I feel like everyone I know is having a baby this year (including myself), and what comes along with "baby season'?  Baby Showers and Gifts! 

My sister-in-law is having a little boy in April (which is so exciting, because I'll finally be an Auntie!)  Anyhow, I was looking at her boards on Pinterest and saw this sign made by Swoozies.com,  and I immediately knew that I was going to make her one myself.  

First I created my template on my Silhouette Cameo
I like to fill in the letters with the color vinyl I'm going to use, that way I get a better idea of how the final product will turn out.
The fonts I used were: 1)LW Headline  2)LD Gregarious  3)LD Forever Friends  4)SNF Petite Hand (all of these fonts were purchased from the Silhouette online store)

Next I took my 11x11 wood board - I painted, sanded and prepped it for the vinyl letters.  For the full tutorial, you can CLICK HERE, when I made my Military Subway Art.

Once all the letters were transferred, I applied a few coats of Mod Podge over the whole thing and it was done.  Very easy and inexpensive.
I think she'll love it! :)
HAPPY CRAFTING!

    I love it! I have 3 friends due at the same time in September, so I guess that's baby season around here.
