FINALLY finished Evans' name!

As promised in this original post: BETTER PICTURES! (added at 12am)

This is lettering that I make and sell (that's right, SELL). Featured is my lettering for my baby Evan. This is done with the newspaper from the day and city he was born in; ATLANTA, October 14, 2008. I have been saving this idea in my 'back pocket' to do it first for myself before I get flooded with orders to do it for YOU! ;) You can click on the pictures to see them closer and read the paper but I am explaining each letter, below.

The "E" is the front page of "The Atlanta Journal-Constitution" newspaper, including the date. My favorite part is on the bottom is gives a weather 'teaser' that says: "It promises to be (a) pretty day"
By far the biggest news I can remember from this time was all the fires in California (that lasted for weeks!) and since it was also in my home state, I was sure to use the story for my "V" as well as 'represent' for my Cali peeps. ;)

The "A" features the (then) Presidential Candidates who were focusing on "the Economy" (a lot of good that did). ;) Also a side story about Bristol Palin and her boyfriend (the speculation that he was being made to join the campaign)

the "N" is the Comics page of the day. i made sure to fit "family circle" cause it's so classic and wholesome. ;)

below are the pics and message sent originally from my phone.

I'll post better pictures later but I finally finished 'EVAN' for his bedroom. I have wanted to make his right away but till now (and even now) I had no time. I did all the letters in the newspaper from the day Evan was born & in the state/city he was born. I'm pretty happy with the outcome. Tonight I will post better pictures of it but tell me what you think?! I also sell these @ $7.00 per letter (plus shipping) for anyone interested. @ may post others I've made in the past.
