Baby Alana's Letter Plaque

My friend Heather had a baby girl on January 26, 2011. Heather waited until the baby was born to decide on a name. Once the Baby Alana's name was picked, I was set!

Here are most of the supplies I used. The only things not pictured are my Cricut and the Don Juan cartridge.



I forgot to take a picture after I put two coats of the purple paint on. This is after I applied the dots.



This is after I applied the name to the plaque before covering in Mod Podge.


This is the finished product. I hammered a picture hanger to the back and ran ribbon through it. I'm undecided if I like the ribbon on it or not..


Here it is with the ribbon hidden.

After getting the opinion of a few people, it was decided that the ribbon just did not go with it. It was suggested that a pink ribbon would look better. I bought a pink ribbon that was closest to the color of the name. I think the pink ribbon looks so much better!
