Cricut vinyl wall hangings

I found these MDF plaques at Craft Warehouse- on sale for a dollar each- they're about 6x6 inches in dimension. I painted a dark brown base and cream top coat, then sanded lightly around the edges ( I really like how it looks).. If you are familiar with my latest habits craft-wise, you'll be surprised that I didn't crackle it :) I was tempted, trust me. Anyhow, I used my Cricut to cut vinyl letters for these sayings. The "life happens, love helps" quote was actually from a stamp that my best buddy used on a layout of her daughters. I really like it a lot. The other I found just "around", but I like it too. The paint drying took the longest amount of time with these little wall hangings. I'm donating them to our MOPS auction. (Hopefully other people like them enough to bid on them in the silent auction- if they dont', I still like them well enough :) ).
