Going Strong

Just something I finished today :)  It seems like everyone has the sign that says "Est In Year" so I tried to come up with something not as popular.  My husband and I got married in 2005...hence the sign.  I spray painted the board black and then used Champagne lightly over it to get this color.  I think it turned out awesome.  I used chipboard letters painted black and white and  I also used the 2in stencils for the numbers.  I really like how it turned out....what do you think?






PS.  Olivia's new project for school turned out great as well...Mrs. Happy Tooth :)

    Wow! That is awesome! I would try and do something like that, but I'm pretty sure I'd end up in the ER. :)

    That's cute! I like how you put your own spin on it. Your daughter's picture is pretty awesome too :)

    I hope you know you have now started a new trend! You will begin to see Going Strong in everyone's homes because it's so different! I love it and am going to copy. Will link up to you when I do. I tried the Est In sign but did'nt like the way it turned out.

    That's so cute. I could put "Going strong since 1966". Looks like Olivia inherited your talent.
