I grabbed a piece of MDF that was hanging out in the garage and used some turquoise paint left over from the bookcase I built last year. I traced Thumper in the corner with a pencil and then drew over it with a blue Sharpie marker. Then I explained to my kids who Thumper is because I have apparently never bought that movie and introduced my kids to Bambie (which I will remedy this weekend).
Then I used my Silhouette machine (really love that thing!) and added a few nice words to my board.
Now we have some lovely spring color and I can point to it when the kids' words to each other aren't very nice (which is working already. yay!).
you are so awesome!!!!!!!! i love it... p.s. what's a silhouette machine???

ReplyDeleteI love this thing. You plug it in to the computer and it will cut designs from stick-on vinyl (what I used here) or cardstock etc. You can use words in whatever font is on your computer or make images or buy images from them. So much versatility.
