DIY Fruit Of The Spirit 6x6 Wall Plaques


I have been wanting to make this set FOREVER!
Finally, it's done.  :)

You can buy the digital stamp images in several formats:



 As you can see here, I used thin panels.
I bought 6x6 gessoboard HERE.
14911-2006 Thick Gessoboard 6x6



If you want a more fun vintage look, try Christine's tutorial HERE.
I went with a little different look this time and printed directly on different sheets of designer paper by Basic Grey.  I cut them to size (6x6) and adhered with Mod Podge. 


Once dry, I used Prismacolor pencils to color the fruit.  I sponged the edges with SU's Close To Cocoa ink pad.  I hung them with 3M's sticky pull tab hangers and with the help of my 3 beautiful wall hanging assistants, we now have a beautiful reminder of the
 Fruits Of The Spirit.

The Fruits of the Spirit are beautiful and I thank you for the tutorial. I am quite new and it would be beyond me to carry out the instructions but at least you gave them for those who can do them.
Thank you very much for showing us.
Happy New Year
