I decided to make a plaque for our house.  We have a lot of weathered red wood from a deck that we had to tear down.  So, I thought this beautiful wood would be the perfect back for the plaque.  I then cut out the letters in "Family" using my Silhouette.  I decided to use three different papers just to make it more interesting.  I finished it off by making an offset mat for the word.  To go with the rustic feel, I just stapled the word onto the board.  Now I have a very simple plaque for our house!
