Made it Monday

This week for Made it Monday I did my own little version of the  Red Letter Words signs.  If you haven't seen this business before you should check them out.  I love what they are doing.

I just didn't have it in my budget this month to order one.  My little version cost me about $5.  I used a 40% coupon from Hobby Lobby and picked up a 14" x 18" stretched canvas.

First thing is to spray paint the whole canvas which ever color you want.  I had some left over Red that I thought would look great for Christmas.

Next I used the computer and made my project 14" x 18" and typed out the verse just the way I wanted it on my finished project.

Print out the words and cut them out.

Then the time consuming process of tracing your letters onto the canvas with a pencil.

 Then I used puff paint since it has that nice tip to color in the letters.

This part only took about 30 minutes.

Let Dry and Hang.  I love the way it turned out.  I actually may do this again sometime. The only change  I would make is to use painter's tape to keep the words in line.
