Spring Seeds for sale sign

I have been on a sign making binge lately. I have been seeing an assortment of fun signs everywhere and it has made me want to make more signs! I found the idea for this sign on Etsy. I wanted something bright and cheery for Spring so, for my sign I mixed a creamy lemon color with a couple of different paints that I had on hand. I picked out one of my scrap piece hardwood flooring boards to paint. This time I decided to paint on the backside of the flooring board instead of the smooth side. It was rough and had no finish or stain on the backside and this was perfect because I wanted this sign to be a little rustic looking with sanded edges. While my paint was drying I cut a template out of contact paper on my Silhouette machine for the wording. I placed the outline of the contact paper on my board and then filled in the centers of the letters with the cut out shapes. I painted in the wording with a gray color of paint. After it was dry I peeled off the contact paper and gave the board a quick sand. It turned out so fun and I can’t wait to put it outside by some potted plants!
