Doodles and Drawings...

Last month I made THIS sign for my house. 

One of my friends loved it and wanted to make one for her house too!

So last Friday she came over and while the kids played we made her one!

She chose to go with a white board and black lettering. She also chose a different font-and I really like the font she used! {I can get the name if anyone is interested. It is just on a different computer than what I am on right now}

I meant to take pictures of the process to show you... but well, I forgot.

The board is 6 in x3 feet {when I made mine I made it 4 feet long- so you can cut it to any length you like} The nice guys at home Depot will cut it for you if you want :)
The clips are actually magnetic clips. I found them in the office section of Walmart
The letters are cut on cardstock {could use vinyl, but cardstock is cheaper!} with my Cricut and I used SCAL to upload the font

Mod podge the letters on {anyone else want to call it Modge Podge? Or is it just me?}, then apply a thin layer of Mod Podge on top of them.

I used E6000 glue to attach the clips

Tie some tulle and/or ribbon on the clips and you have yourself a super cute new place to hang the kidlets artwork!

I seriously love her font so much, it makes me want to re-do mine and use that font! I won't {for now}, but I want to!
