Ok so I couldn’t connect to the site at all on Friday, and was gone yesterday. So, late, and redundant (I think Jupiter Boy’s photo is superior) is my submission. Too little too late. I didn’t submit to the stencil thing so I sort of combined here:

Well I have attached my image... looking forward to great conversations on Typophile.

I have replaced my image with one of the same cutout just created a different way... the original was driving me insane ... at least the edges look ok now.
