On Island Time Signal

Now I’m again sharing this sweet minor sign…

Given that it’s now a signal and has a wonderful hanging wire on the back again, I figured I’d hold it a signal.
Well, kind of.

You can hang it or sit it on a shelf, both way.

Below is what it appears to be like like now…

Just a tiny various, huh? lol

Nicely, guess what? Yep…I pulled out yet another sheet of that extensive-dropped scrapbook paper I had stashed away and made use of it.

You can see earlier mentioned that I created a crease by pressing along the edges of the board for reducing.

See under?

Then I used a slim layer of my Decoupage Gel …

…and attached the scrapbook paper.

The moment it was dry, I took a piece of sandpaper and rubbed the edges to get a nice clean line like you see under.

I really like that small trick! Operates so well. (on cloth decoupage as well)

Then I printed (in reverse) out the words and phrases “on island time…” and organized them on the signal where by I wished them.

I rubbed above them with the pencil to transfer the ink from the inkjet.

You can see how very well this is effective beneath.

Then all you have to do is use a smaller artist’s brush to paint above the lettering. (one thing like this brush works really nicely)

I made use of white paint for the letters.

I went back in excess of regions that have been as well thin and then decided to incorporate shadowing.

I like to print out the text with a “shadow” and it displays you in all places you will need to incorporate it.

Does not that just make the letters pop??

Last of all, I scorching glued a toddler starfish to the front to finish it up.

Perfect for that beach front-themed dwelling or cottage by the sea. 🙂

An additional really uncomplicated 1! Loving all the decoupage I have been executing lately.
It is been so considerably pleasurable to rework these aged, exhausted items!

PIN it to preserve it!

I’ll be back subsequent 7 days with this one! (I Enjoy how this a single turned out and just cannot hold out to share it with you)

Have a fantastic weekend!!
