Vinyl Sayings and Quotes on Boards

Here's another way to use Wall Vinyl Sayings and Quotes - apply the saying or quote to a painted board.

We are gearing up for our fall craft shows and having fun with some neat ideas.  So here are a few boards we have ready to go. 

First, we have been using Aspen wood purchased at Menards.  We buy it as a larger piece and cut it down.  Aspen seems to be quite sturdy but lightweight.   Hobby Lobby also has routered unfinished wood that works excellent for this purpose.

For the Laugh/Love board shown here, we made a stencil using our Floral Wall Art.  Then we used
etching cream to paint the floral design on the painted board.  A light paint color would work fine for this also but the etching cream was an experiment =) and gave it a unique texture.


The next neat board we made - a Sister saying with a Zebra Stripe background.  For this one, we painted the board a lime green.  The stripes are our Warm Grey Zebra Stripes sized to fit the board.  Finally we added the Hot Pink Sister saying on top.  For hanging purposes, we added the wire.

Another favorite is the Laundry Room board.  Beige vinyl saying applied to a Brown board with a few embellishments added to the corners.
