California Love

by Karla Der | 9 years ago

Hello! This is Karla from the social media design team. Today, I have a super sized project for you. I saw something similar for sale and I thought, 'I can make that!'

It's big, 24x36 in!

I wanted to give you a perspective shot...just so you could see it really is big! I first tried to get one with my baby, but she was on the move the entire time, so here is a picture with one of my cute fur babies :)

I really do Love California. I feel like we have the best of everything minus the earthquakes. I wouldn't miss that. This would be an easy project to make if you want to display your love for your state. 

So, how did I do it?  I hand traced the shape of California on 2 pieces of the 16x20 paper and adhered it on to the burlap background using  Tombow Power Tabs (only took 5!). Then I sketched the 'LOVE' letters and heart using a ruler because I didn't feel like using a machine. I used the map paper project roll for the letters. The way the heart came out is my favorite part. I adhered the letters using a tombow foam tape roll. 

I hope this inspires you to get crafty with the new DCWV super sized materials out at Joann stores!
