Getting My Craft On! {Part 3}

Hi Guys!

Ok, so part three of me getting my craft on is some "Summer Fun" blocks.

This is what I used:

1. 3- 4" wood blocks

2. 1- 6" wood block

3. Yellow craft paint/paint brush

4. Piece of sandpaper

5.  My Silhouette for the vinyl (font: Surf City)

6.Scrapbook Paper

7.  Mod podge

I had a nice guy at Home Depot cut half of a 2X4 in 4" blocks and the other half in 6".

{Such a trooper!}

I painted the blocks yellow, sanded the edges with sandpaper.

I traced the blocks on the scrapbook paper and then mod podged it onto the wood. 

When the mod podge was dry, I re sanded the edges of the wood so that the paper looked like "part of the wood"

 then I cut some vinyl spelling the word SUMMER and FUN.

At first I cut white...I didn't like how it looked so I cut brown vinyl.]

  I put the brown over the white on the letters fun. 

  I embellished them with some ribbon and brads that matched the scrapbook paper.

I am still undecided about the over all look.

What do you all think?

 They seem like they are missing something...Yes...No?

Have  a super weekend!
