Subway art on a letter

Have I missed it?  The Subway art "train" I mean. Pun intended? Perhaps...

I have always said that one of the first projects I would complete once I got a Silhouette, was some Subway art.  Here is what I came up with...

I do not recall seeing this done on an actual letter before.  I did spend some time on Google to see if it came up, and I didn't find it.  

I had this initial for a long time in my stash.  When I saw it in the closet on my way to the vacuum, it struck me.  This is what it started out like...

I painted it with three coats of white gesso.  

While it was drying, I put my boyos to work.

I had them write a bunch of words that had to do with their "theme."  Son one has the baseball "R" above.  I will show you son two's "V" when I finish it up. 

I chose dark blue vinyl for all of the words and numbers--it works with the colors in his room.  

He kind of loves it.  How happy am I?





PS  Just so you know, I am offering these in my Etsy shop here.
