fall sign

Do you remember the American flag I made

using this tutorial?

Well it was so much fun, I decided to make something similar for fall!

I started with some 2 x 4, mod podge, craft paint,

and scrapbook paper.

I  cut 3 pieces from the 2 x 4:

8, 4 1/2 and 5 1/2 inch long.

Each piece was painted a different color.

I used my Slice machine with the farm cartridge

and cut Fall, pumpkins, fork and fence.

I clued the paper with mod podge,

then sanded the edges,

and applied some more brown paint on these edges.

I then glued the letters and accessories to the block.

Voila, a cool little sign!

Now I am not sure which one I prefer:

all in a row or with the extra block on the top...

What do you think?

any favorite?

The acorns come from a park around the corner

where we spend a lot of time during the showing of our house.

My son, the scout, was quite shocked that we picked them up,

"leave nature the way you find".

He is right, I just hope who ever was going to eat them will be OK!

Happy crafting!
