Chalkboard Vinyl Decor

Image
By
Hello, Friends!  Marilyn here with a project that was really simple to put together.   My tip today is:  Find an old picture frame and create something fun with it.  I used my old frame to create a chalkboard for my granddaughter.
  • Inspiration for this Project
  • Old Picture Frame
  • Chalkboard Vinyl
  • Square1 Repositionable 
  • Digi Stamp - from Beary Wishes
  • Image found online

Chalkboard Recipe:
  • Frame with glass - found in my back closet (dusty and unused)
  • Chalkboard Vinyl - lay vinyl under the glass from the frame and cut around.  Peel backing off of vinyl and apply to top of glass.  Reassemble the frame.
  • "RACHEL" = cut at 2" using Cooper STD font.  Text was color filled prior to cutting.  I used Square1 to print and cut the letters.  Place text where you want on chalkboard vinyl.



  • Cookie Monster = image found using online search.  Traced within Silhouette software.   I sized my Cookie Monster at 2.75" and used Square1 again for printing and cutting.  



  • Cupcake = image is a digi stamp from Beary Wishes.  I sized the cupcake at 3".  Square1 was used to print and cut.  I love Square1 because it lets me move my image soooo easily.  Stickles was later added to the hearts and ribbon on the cupcake.

Thank you for visiting today!  Comments are welcomed and appreciated!

My Favorite Craft Tools and Giveaway!!!

By
Hi everyone, Today's video is a fun one for me. Since getting back into crafting I have noticed that I am pulling certain items over and over again and thought it would be fun to share with you. Two years ago, I took a step back from crafty and downsized 75% of my craft room.  However with just these awesome tools, I have been able to get back into the swing of things and I don't miss having a larger craft room. Personally, I feel every crafter should have these starting out.  They make creating easy and fun!

Building Block Graduation Card

By
Hello, everyone! Melissa here on to share a "building block" style card with you. I made this one graduation themed, since there are a ton of graduations going on right now. Hope you enjoy this card, and are inspired to try it out yourself. Here is the tutorial I followed from Split Coast Stampers. To make it easier, I will give you all the measurements, here. It looks harder than it is, I promise. Start with a piece of cardstock in your desired color that is 5.5 x 10.5. Put the 10.5 inch side along the top of your score board or paper trimmer, and score at 3.5 inches and 7 inches. Fold the first score line in a mountain fold, and the second in a valley fold. You should end up with a "z" fold card. The next part can get a bit tricky, so make sure you watch the video to fully understand what I am about to explain. On the back side of the "valley" fold, take a ruler and pencil and mark these measurements: 3/8 1 3/8 1 5/8 2 5/8 2 7/8 3 7/8
