Quickest Baby Gift in the Midwest

I thought I'd pop in and share the quickest and easiest baby gift I've made in a long time. 

You know those MDF letters they sell in the craft store?  Well with a few stencils and some fast drying alcohol inks, you can whip up something in only a few hours.

And those drips and runs down the edges? Don't worry, they're the best part! 

Once the ink is dry just be sure and go in and detail around the edges of the colors with your favorite permanent pens and it will look so cool...

Something fun for the baby's room that they might never grow out of!

Voila:

That is such a cool idea! I see those letters in the craft store and always think "what would I do with those"...now I know!

[TJ]

Thanks Janet! I think lots of people collage them but this is faster...

Sometimes people don't "make" a gift because they don't have a week to sew or crochet a blanket or baby clothes.

This is something equally meaningful, but easier to fit into our busy lives!!

Love this! The colors are perfect. I wish you were closer... I want to make a fun fabric for a charity event.

Hi, Buddy!
Great idea, and a different look from acrylic paint.
Thanks!

Those are awesome! Super cute. How are you doing with the adjustment back to the US? I think I'm finally back here fully. It took almost 9 months... I'm so glad to see you in the Liberate your Art swap this year again!!

Brilliant! I have covered these in scrapbooking paper etc before and then spent ages sanding edges and fluffing round. Your way sounds much more efficient and looks gorgeous! What a lovely gift.
