Guest post- Janet from I HEART My Glue Gun!

Hey all you fabulous bloggers! I am so honored to be over here at Moosetracks and Taterstacks! LOVE her blog!

I’m Janet from I HEART My Glue Gun. I’ve only been blogging since February, but I’m loving EVERY minute of it. I have to admit, I get a LOT of my ideas from fellow bloggers instead of being the naturally crafty one! But I still adore crafting and finding a way to personalize each craft I do. I pride myself on making things on a next to nothing budget! Check out my blog to see some of the things I’ve done.

Today, I want to share with you personalized wood letters that I made for some new friends of mine.

This was a 1x4x6 which was $1.92 cut down into blocks varying from 3 1/2 to 4 1/2 inches.

I used $0.59 scrapbooking paper from Michael’s cut down to the blocks size and modge podged them on.

I then used my PRECIOUS (yannow, I think that is now officially my Cricut’s new name-My PRECIOUS! *insert mental image of Gollum here) to cut out the letters and popped them on, leaving me with these sweet little personalized blocks!

I even packaged them all pretty and cute before delivering them! How thoughtful of me

I was also able to make two more names out of the 1×4 and didn’t even use all my paper, so I can confidently say this project was less than a buck! Can you believe it?!

Thanks for having me, and I hope to see your pretty faces over at I HEART My Glue Gun soon!
