Wedding Invitation Frame

I made this frame for some friends that are getting married soon. They sent a cute poem in the invitations saying they had a lot of stuff but really needed money for a house. So I thought I would paint this frame for them based on the design of their invitations and frame a picture of a former president :)

Wall of Fame

A friend needed a sign for a display of veterans pictures that said "Wall of Fame" this is what i came up with.

we got individual letters and 3 pieces of wood from joanns and gave everything a base coat of white and traced the outlines of the letters on the board so i wouldn't have the play with the spacing again.
I then drew in pencil where i wanted all the lines and taped them off to make my red stripes

it is a two stage process to get all of the lines in because my painters tape is wider than my stripes.
the letters drying
all the base lines are now done
then without any tape i extended the red lines down the sides and added the blue area, coloring the sides as well. The blue field was then finished off with little white stars
The somewhat finished piece. the letters will be nailed into the board from the back, but this will be done once they reach their final destination
