Obviously I played around with posting pics after I emailed you and was finally successsful. Glad now that I learned how to do it. Thanks again for your efforts. Had you not offered I probably still would not know how to post pics.
The oval was a gift for my wifes birthday..... sandblasted with goldleaf.
The other sign was my 2nd sandblasted sign in which I was paid. The close-up shows the TC RESIN ( SignShine, now I think) effect.
All of these signs as well as the "Stitch" sign are a reality as a result of the sharing that goes on this board. Thanks again to all of you who have responded to my questions. Your unselfishness has been a blessing to me !
And last but certainly not least, thanks Steve and Barb !

yea Mark....speaking of the type face and weight of "Beth's Garden"...well that was another tip I picked up on theBB by using the contour in Corel. The font just wasnt "heavy" enough on its own.
Those antique signs you and the others are making are beauties...gotta find some time to try that technique out. Come to think about it, that might be a good technique to use on the sign for the "clubhouse" I am building for our 2 sons.
