I think that I have made at least 40 of these over the last four or five years. They're pretty simple but friends and family seem to like them.

Nice idea. The rounded lettering gives it a nice, "softer", informal look.

The lettering and the base are modeled as separate components in Aspire using the create shape tool. The platform just has a slot to mount the lettering and the perimeter was done on a router table. The font is Snap ITC.
