Letters to create a sign, poster, etc ...

Hi everyone! We may want create an original poster for our business, for an event such as a wedding, communion, or simply to decorate our home ... Today we are going to give you an idea of ​​how to make the letters for the title of this sign and make them beautiful and original.

Do you want to know how you can make these letters?

Materials that we will need to make our sign

  • Table mainly, already painted and the base created. You can see how to make the table that we use in the craft by looking at the following link: Painting cardboard or marquetry board like wood This table, being painted with acrylic, will allow us to eliminate the markers with which we make the letters with water, and therefore will allow us to correct if we make a mistake.
  • Colored markers.
  • Glass of water and brush (to correct)
  • White paper. We are going to use this paper to support it on the letters and to prevent smudging them with our hand.

Hands on craft.

  1. Once we have the base of our poster and we know what we want to put, we are going to trace the letters in an imaginary way so that they are centered in the area we want to write them. This way we will avoid running out of space.
  2. Let choose a range of colors, in my case from green to yellow.
  3. Once we have everything ready, We will begin by writing the letters with a marker of the chosen color. With this first layer, we are going to shape our letters.
  4. Little by little we are going to add lines of colors that blend with the layers we already have to create a gradient. 

  1. Once we have all the colors on and we are happy with the result, we are going to highlight the letters with a black marker, making areas with thick lines, areas with fine lines and then areas without black lines where we will make the line with the colored markers. The idea is to create areas in shadow and areas in light to create a certain depth.
  2. We can add decorative elements such as leaves in each corner for example.

And ready! We already have our poster ready.

I hope you cheer up and do this craft.
