Using Extreme Fonts, cut the title. "Joy" was cut at 1" and "Alaska" was cut at 1/4." Adhere the title to the left hand page.
Using Extreme Fonts create text boxes with the sentiment and position them on the mat to create your "sign." Cut from green card stock and mat with brown card stock. Adhere the middle pieces of letters that are needed, such as o, e, b, etc. Add two brads to the top corners of the "sign."
