Day before yesterday, my fathah and little broham left for camp, and I completely forgot until yesterday morning (when I saw a letter from my sister to my little broham) that we're suppose to write them letters! So really quickly I whipped up a couple of letters, and then, since the theme this year is camouflage, I thought it would be fun to add in a sticker with the word "camouflage" in the shape of a truck! Welp, it all went swimmingly until I tried to run it through the sticker maker. This was the first sticker I'd tried with that cartridge, and I must have messed it up somehow. I'm telling you, I about died of frustration. I ended up not even putting it in the letter at all, because I'm still set on making it a sticker, and I had to get it in the mail in a very speedy manner! It might be a while until I touch that thing (sticker maker). I have to let myself cool down, you know, so I don't chomp it into little pieces in my rage. That wouldn't be good....
I'll give it to him someday.
So ANYWAYS, I roughly drew a simple truck shape, and then roughly filled in the letters, and tweaked them until I thought they looked good. Each letter has to touch the letters on either side of it so the word will all be one piece when cut out.
Then I cut the whole thing out! I love this part. After that I had to erase the pencil lines, which wasn't hard, but I did have to make sure I was gentle so the paper didn't get bent.
Then came the camouflaging! I used five different sharpies, being: brown, tan (more like light brown), green, black, and gray.
Let me know what y'all think! In other words, comment! I love feedback! What other shapes/words could I do?
Heh. I like this. XD
