Wood Saying: Thanks

My awesome cousin picked up some great wooden letters for me at a shop in Idaho Falls, ID called Cut it Out.


I LOVE the font!!

I took the letters and did a bit of sanding to smooth down any rough spots and then painted the sides back and just over the edge of the front.

Next I picked out some fun FALL scrapbook paper and roughly cut it to fit my letters and modge podged it on.

One it was dry I took a sanding block and sanded the edges until the paper wore away.

It give a great distressed look to the paper.


After a little bit of embellishing I was done!

I love how it turned out. I have JOY waiting for me to do in the same way in a couple of weeks!
