EAD Blog Hop-Keep Calm & Carry On

Hey bloggy friends!
It's time to start your week off with a fabulous EAD Designs blog hop! You can start the hop at the EAD blog and make your way through the entire hop because I will be giving away something fun today! :)

I've seen these around in blogland and decided I HAD to have one too!
I used the Keep Calm and Carry On vinyl lettering art for my *handmade* sign!

Supplies:
This block of wood is about 24 inches high and was about 5 bucks at Home Depot, I got some regular acrylic paint on sale at Micheals for 30 cents! woot! woot! LOVE sales! :)
Apply a few coats of paint & let it dry ((the acrylic dries SUPER fast!)).
Apply vinyl.
Viola! Done. I also sanded the edges a little bit and applied some Distress ink for interest.

Hope you likey! It looks fabbie next to my fireplace! ;)

I will be giving away the vinyl I used today, in order to have a chance to win just make sure to leave a comment on everyone's blog! A random winner will be picked next Monday.


Ok, your next stop on the hop is to the wonderful 

Have a great day! :)
