No card again...but another project I'd made for my daughter. A name plaque for her dorm room. The colours used are the university colours blue and gold, purple the dorm colour and weasels the dorm mascot. All the words on the plaque are motto's and what the students of the university and dorm are called. Yes, I'm blessed to be an ND mom. J
thick blue card-stock from an old book cover
yellow A4 paper
fixation spray
Crayola colour pencils
remnant strips of wooden lamination
alpha stickers
double sided foam tape
The weasel image was found via the search engine, downloaded, flipped one, printed, coloured and fussy cut. The motto's etc. were typed, printed in different fonts, torn, glued all over the blue background and sprayed with fixation spray, which also gave it a shine. Next the wooden strips were glued in the form of a standing sign board and the alpha stickers were used for their names (edited to protect identity). Finally the weasels were given dimension by turning them over on either side with the hairbrush handle and adhered in place with foam tape. Sorry, forgot to take a pic to show dimension.
I'm entering this project into challenges at...

You daughter is going to love that you made this just for her, with the school colors. It's a bit of home to remind her of you, when she's in her dorm room at night! It's adorable. TFS
