4th of July SIgn by Steph

Hi everyone, Steph here to share a new 4th of July sign created with my Proxxon Tools.

Supplies:

Scroll Saw

Bench Drill Press 

Delta Sander

Plaid Ultra Dye in Infra Red

I drew the design I wanted to cut on a piece of wood, then used the Scroll Saw to cut the design.  Next I used the Bench Drill Press to drill a hole in the top.

Once cut, I used the Delta Sander to smooth out the panel.  With it's angled head, it was easy to get into the little crevises.

Then I had fun decorating it.  I painted it with Plaid Ultra Dye in Infra Red, a beautiful color.  With it's rich color, I only needed one coat of dye.  Next, I cut Canvas Corp. 4th of July paper to fit the center panel. I matted it with cardstock, then adhered it to the panel.

Next, I die cut fireworks and sparklers and added them in place.

Then I die cut USA to fit across the panel.

Finally I added some jute and the sign was ready to hang.

What do you think?

Thanks for stopping by.

Steph
