DT: Christmas Notepad Holders Using Vinyl Die Cuts

 

Hi,

This is post for Craftwell.
For this post, I made some little, easy to sell. gifts for the Christmas Bazzar at our parish for the AHG Booth:




I found some cute mini chalk (white) board easels at the Dollar store and decided to decorate them with vinyl to make some cute Christmas themed notepads holders. As friend of mine told me how easy it was to use die to cut on vinyl, thus I decided to try this method instead of using my Cricut.

My friend was right, it was super easy, but it has a learning curve. Like using transfer tape to apply the shapes, and intricate designs might be more challenging. No heat setting needed for this project.

In general, it was a fun experience and I totally recommend it.

DT: Paper Pinwheels



Hi,

This is my next post for Craftwell.
For this post, I played with the pinwheels die from CTMH and made a "Merry Christmas" banner and several other projects for our Festival at the (Pumpkin) Patch for the AHG troop:

To some pinwheels, I attached mini wooden clothpins to the back, so they can be put on Christmas trees or on big paperclips to make bookmarks: 



To some, I punched a whole to add some twine and a little light bulb bead:


To some of them, I added push pins to attach to pencils:


I made many die cuts and gave them to the girls at the troop to decorate them and we sold them at the festival:

DT: Whooo's Making the Right Choice? Poster Board

  




Hi,

This is my next post for Craftwell.

For this post, I played with more of Get Well Kit from Queen and Co. and created a shaker mask for my Poster Board:



I really like these shaker kits. This one is the mask shaker kit. I love that it comes with everything needed to create a shaker.

For the Poster Board, I created the cutting files using the Circut Design Space Software and cut them using my Cricut Explorer. I was ok with the whole design, but I felt that it needed more. Thus, when I saw this new Mask Shaker kit, I knew that it was just what I needed to give this board more texture.


My daughter had fun using gel pens and metallic markers to decorate the owl and the sign. My students are very pleased with the end result.
