I wanted to create a Mother's Day sign that was personalized for mom showing her children's names attached to hearts, to symbolize the love between mother and her children.
Everything was designed in XCS.
To create the sign shape.
a. This can be more or less hearts depending on the number of children.
b. This can be more or less hearts depending on the number of children, plus one more.
Everything on this step will be set to Engrave with the same settings.
To create the heart engraved outline to attach the children's names.
Steps 2 and 3 are optional.
The squiggly is to add space between the heart and the names.
2. To create the squiggly end to the engraved heart outline, I took a script font that had a squiggly end and cut that end with a square object → Combine → subtract.
3. Combine the outline heart and the squiggly Combine → Unite.
Add the children's names.
Add established year text
a. This can be more or less hearts depending on the number of children.
This is adding the support piece to the sign and a base to support the sign.
Before sending the project to the machine.
To complete the sign, glue the MOM or MAMA letters to the sign, using the score marks as guides.
At this point the sign is complete.
I took it a step further by adding UV Resin to the hearts, to add a little bit of sparkle.
That's it…
I made the project file modifiable so is easier to make it personal to you.
Happy Crafting!
