My Husband's parents just celebrated their 30th anniversary. 30 YEARS!!! I LOVE love! And 30 years is a big deal!
I wanted to make them something special. Something personal. So I found out how they met (playing broom hockey) and I made them a little sign.
Here's what I used:
Wood from Joann's $6.99
Acrylic Paint $.59
Cricut
Expressions Vinyl (You can get it HERE)
I painted the sign first and it dried while I was cutting the vinyl. I individually placed all the letters on. It took a little while, but it wasn't hard. I love the way it turned out. I made it to match what they already have. I'm guessing they liked it, because it's already hanging it their living room! :)
I like to link up to THESE swell parties!
