Mod Podge Words

Today I wanted to share a project I completed a while ago & am now just getting around to taking pictures of :)

These are the words I have sitting on a bookshelf in our home.

This is what they looked like when I bought them--just plain black.
I knew I wanted the color scheme to be bright, so I chose green, orange and yellow. I didn't want to paint them this time, so I searched my stash of scrapbook paper (since I haven't scrapbooked in like 5 years). When I didn't find exactly what I wanted I headed off to the craft store & found these lovely prints.

I placed the word face down on the wrong side of the paper and traced the lettering, then cut it out with my xacto knife.
I have this lovely Xyron machine which is super awesome for making stickers.
I just ran the paper wrong side down through the xyron and voila, the back is all sticky, ready to be adhered to the wood.

After I got all the paper attached, I used my trusty Mod Podge and painted a layer over the top to protect the paper.

And there you have it. Lovely words customized to match my color scheme :) When my colors change someday I can just put new paper over the top and they'll be brand new again.
