It's in my family scrapbook album. With the picture I describe the techniques used. It's measures 5 inches X 2 1/2 inches. It makes a good size for a title. I'm working on the rest of the LO later today. Lynne


Lynne, It looks great. I copied it off to scraplift, hope you don't mind. Our school has graduation from the 5th grade as 6th is in the Middle School. I have a box I've been gathering into so I can work on DD's 5th grade year (way behind as she starts 8th this year). I hope to work on it with her when we go to the crop cabin at the end of July in Gatlinburg. Thanks for sharing, Sandy

They are eyelets that I haven't attached yet. I'm going to see if I can attach the license plate to the LO with them. If not on to plan B to either glue dot them or something else creative.

Lynne

Not at all Sandy... help yourself. Some of my best ideas are from seeing other people's work including this one. I saw a swap and the ladies did license plates and the 6th grade idea popped into my head. I have another plate I'm working on.... instead of the LOs I was going to work on. :D Always distracted.

Lynne

How cool! I'll have to remember that idea. It would make a great title. You did a great job on it. Love the screws!

Very cute Lynne. Now I have a way to use the screw brads I have!

Mine are eyelets... but it sounds like they come in brads too.

Lynne

I took your idea and when I made my army license plate I left it simple so it could be embellished by the recipient. Thanks for the idea.

Lynne

I think the screw eyelets with the cutest thing I every saw in the eyelet world. I don't know why I found them so adorable. Just love the industrial look, but seldom have a use for them. I used them on a LO I did of my house being built and now the license plates seem custom made for the screw heads.

Now to get the LO's done. I was going to work on them after I made them, but have been having fun making more license plates. I'm going to need more screwhead eyelets or brads as mentioned by someone.

Lynne

Thank you for the compliment of the Coleman font. It is my handwriting and I tried really hard to make it look nice.

Lynne

I'm going to have to look for some screw brads I think they would work well with these license plates.
