Young Women Value Blocks

So being asked to be the Young Women President at church (for the girls ages 12-18)... was a big 'excuse' for getting a vinyl cutter... because there are soo many fun things you can do that would be super fun for the girls! (fun for me too! teehee) I've been wanting to do this Value Block project for a year... and with our big end of the year event coming up for Young Women, where they display all their accomplishments... what a PERFECT TIME to do this project! :)
In our Young Women's group, they have a Personal Progress program that is similar to the boy scouts getting their Eagle by the age of 18. The girls do service projects and other projects that have to do with each of our 8 values, which are: FAITH, DIVINE NATURE, INDIVIDUAL WORTH, KNOWLEDGE, CHOICE and ACCOUNTABILITY, GOOD WORKS, INTEGRITY and VIRTUE. Each value is assigned a color that they represent. I am super excited to have gotten these blocks done... so excited... they are stinkin' cute in my humble opinion! :)

BonBons and Lattes

I recently participated in a fair... where I had a booth displaying my vinyl items. The nice ladies in the booth next to me make darling pillow case dresses. I'll ask them for a picture of the dresses so I can post it on here... they are darling!

They ordered a custom vinyl sign for their business... fun story about them is that when they arrived at the fair, they had a different name for their business. Throughout that day, they decided to change their name to: "BonBons and Lattes Boutique". This came about from one of their husbands, teasing her (BonBon) about spending soo much time with her Latte... ADORABLE! :)

Psalms 144:1

A friend asked me to make this scripture into a sign for him. He used to serve in the military and this verse means a lot to him. I was super excited to do a sign in a color OTHER than black... since most everything I do is in black. Black looks great and is very popular, it was just nice to change things up a bit! I was worried about which color red to go with since there are a ga-zillion reds, but I'm excited at how this color red turned out.

A sign to hang the "most important things" on.

Made to Order...

My mother in law wanted something for her home for her and Lee... so this is what she came up with! I was hesitant to use the hearts... but I think it turned out nice!
This is a custom order for a local friend here in Mansfield... she wanted something to display her children's artwork on... there are clips along the bottom to hold the artwork. LOVE THIS!
Again, the black with tan is a popular color combination. :)
