These are door signs, great for bedrooms. I kept it easy on myself and used the same 2 designs. It is much easier to work this way, you can cut out 2 of each image). I used 4x8 pieces of chipboard for each sign. On the girls' I added cream 4x8 cardstock, red letters, and a princess hat. On the boys' I added 4x8 bright blue cardstock, navy blue letters, and a alligator. (all paper by recollections @ Michael's, except princess hat [making memories-cosmopolitan stack])
I cut all of the letters out from George & Basic Shapes, I used 'shadow' for the letters. I think that chunky letters are cute.
I cut the Alligator from Create A Critter. A little hint to same some paper- Instead of cutting the (base) gator image in black and then cutting layer one in navy, I just cut the base in navy... not a huge deal to have navy eyes... that's all the black (base) is used for. This is the first time I have cut the Alligator; it is cute, but still boyish (sometimes I find Create A Critter can be a little cutesy for boy projects).
I LOVE this! I cut the princess hat out using the Sweet Treats cartridge. I used this same cut in this project. As you can see in the 2nd picture, I added cotton candy stickles to the heart on the princess hat, and xmas red stickles on the letters in small dots.
...GASP...that was a long post! Have a great day and stop back later for more crafty fun!
