Today's Creative Blog: Road Sign Tutorial

3 more days until I post the winner of the Lisa Leonard Necklace. A new winner monthly. Just leave me a comment to enter.

You guys rocked the house yesterday. WOW, so many creative links. It’s still up if you have something you want to add to Get Your Craft On.

I was looking at my hutch the other day and was thinking that I needed some sort of sign…..made from wood…….then I see that

Paring Down

had added one to Get Your Craft On! Perfect timing. I’m still trying to decide what I want mine to say. It was also SO perfect that I saw this, because I don’t really have a lot of time to write a full feature today…….did you know it takes me at least 2 hours? But I thought you’d all be satisfied with this project. She has a great tutorial.

And I love the idea of using chip board for your stenciling….gotta use them up somehow.

She also shares with you what she used to paint it. Looks great doesn’t it? I think you’ll enjoy her blog. Love the design……..you know I love pears………She’s a simple woman who makes you feel right at home. Oh how I love creative women. Go surprise her!
