Welcome Signs #3 and #4

Good evening. Two posts today--I've been crafting, but too busy to blog. My sister in law and I just put up another 94 quarts of sweet corn today (we did 74 last week), so I have hardly been home!
I finished my signs for the craft fair. I LOVE how they turned out. I can't wait to get more.

Another welcome sign. The "welcome" was a bear to cut on my cricut. I think my mat is old, my blade is shot, and I'm a dummy. LOL I had some trouble! Again, got the flourish free from a My Cricut Scrapbooking online. I think this turned out very tastefully!

I chose to make the last one a thanksgiving/fall sign. I love the font that Thanks is written in (Liorah BT), and it cuts beautifully! I stamped the pumpkins on Only Orange, stamped the leaves on Green Galore, and then cut them all out. I used a gel pen to create the white "stitching". I also "stitched" around almost all the other pieces--I think it gives it such a homespun feel.
Thanks for stopping!! Have a great night!

Welcome Sign #1

Another quick entry (trying to keep up as I make things). I whipped this up this afternoon. I'm involved in a ladies church group, and we have a Harvest Sale every October to raise money for our school. I made this as a contribution for the Harvest Sale. I'm planning on making some more to sell. I love how this turned out!
I got the actual signs at Loopy's Dollar in my hometown. They were having crazy days, and it was 75% off...so it was 75 cents!! What a steal. It originally came with a metal piece attached that said "welcome" or "welcome friends" or something like that. I bought four of them, and ripped the metal piece off.
I was left with a blank slate! I mod podged some paper on, cut letters and the flourish with my cricut and scal, slapped them on, and I was done! Super easy, but looks really cool. I'm in the process of another one. Would have got it done this afternoon but the baby woke up. Tomorrow, maybe!

Thanks for stopping! Have a great night!
