Blocks Again

Wow these blocks are so fast to do when you use vinyl lettering.  



A friend wanted decor blocks in her last name.  I used scrap wood, but not 2 x 4's as done previously, but 2 x 3's. They end up being 2.5" squared blocks. I've made these using 2 x 4's see this post for details, but wanted to make the blocks slightly smaller since the last name is a bit long.


I trimmed the Stampendous stamp to fit, antiqued the edges using "Old Paper and "Chocolate" paper stain and then added vinyl lettering.

If you don't have vinyl lettering, you can make these using cardboard letters or any letter stencil see full details here.  

My painted blocks still need to be sanded down, but and a protective coat, but basically are done.
