I have wanted to try my hand at 'subway art' for a while now.
After seeing the subway art showcase at
Tatertots and Jello, I was inspired to do it! I chose a canvas, spray painted it blue & got to work. I picked summer as my theme.
I tried to choose words that mean 'summertime' us.
I used my cricut to cut the letters and I was ready.
(I used lime green paper, which is hard to tell in the picture)
I used Mod Podge to hold down the letters and then I covered the whole canvas.
Man I love a product it's ok to make a mess with :)
I'm pretty happy with the way it turned out.
What I love most is that it's so simple. There's no wrong way to do it.
Vinyl letters would make a perfect choice (less mess).
You can use glass, canvas or wood for your 'board'.
You choose the words so it's totally personalized.
I already have some ideas for more pieces of art...
I'm thinking football season (Go Noles) and Halloween (just to start)

Very cute! I tried one a few weeks ago, but it was a major fail. I tried to make a stencil out of contact paper instead of doing the mod podge, but the paint bleed under the stencil. I may have to break down and do the mod podge version!!
I love, love, love it! I want to do one so bad, but I don't have a Cricut and I'm waaaay to lazy to use an exacto knife to cut out all those letters. That's sooooo not going to happen! Great job!!
I love it - you did a great job!
