Hi everbody .This is no big deal.It's a pine Birthday plaque for my Grand daughter.I put a small frame around it. Just used a 60deg cutter cut to a depth of .060 Pre sprayed a sealer on and then cut.Shot some black ink. sanded it and cleared it.She loves it. Basecircle

Great job! Neat that you created the sign and frame all in one.

Did you seal, cut then seal again before spraying the ink on?

Thanks High pockets. To answer your question I sealed cut and sprayed on the Ink. After cleanup I sprayed.The first sealer is to close the grain and when you ink it.there is no bleed. Hope this answered your question. Basecircle

Now I would have to disagree with that, the fact that it was done for your Grand daughter & she loved it makes it a big deal, doesn't have to be something really elaborate to be a big deal as far as I am concerned, sometimes the simplest of things are the best :lol: :lol:

Anyway, great job in making your Grand daughters birthday extra special
