My cousin Lisa, who lives in Missouri, stopped through on her way
home from Texas and I loaded her up on some vinyl and other crafty
goodies. I also sent a few things home with her for her daughter Jessica
who is also a papercrafter. Lisa bought my E2 from me last year so I
am hoping she will get into doing some great projects now that she is
getting settled in to her new home.
While
she was here we were discussing the vinyled tumblers and she said "oh
you could make me one of those so I could have one to use at my new
job". And...of course I did! I asked what kinda of things she wanted on
it and she sells Scentsy so she asked for something that related and we
came up with a great tumbler for her! It would have been better if had
some sage green vinyl but hey, I can't have it all can I? HA HA
It's
always hard to photograph this dang things so I took a couple of
pictures. Here you can see most of her name. The font Sister which is
the font like Scentsy uses was used for her name. I can't remember the
font I got the swirls from and the stars were from the ones included in
the MTC program and I just skewed them to make them odd sizes.
When
I was going through vinyl to box up and send home with Lisa I told her
"you can't have any of my glitter vinyl because I don't have that much".
But I did honor her with using a little of my fancy vinyl on her
tumbler. I think she felt a little special...if she didn't she should
have! HA HA!
The
swirls were a little thin so I did a shadow layer to thicken them up a
little. I also broke the original design up and just used pieces from
the swirl image so I could just use what I wanted. Have I told you
lately how much I LOVE Make The Cut? Well I am telling you now! I swear
the more I use that program the more I fall in love!
Lisa was very pleased with her tumbler and I think she will use it with pride!
Very cool, I can see why she would be pleased. You do great work!

ReplyDeleteVery pretty, you did a great job. You are a good cousin!! Jeri L.
ReplyDeleteYou did a great job! Thank you for sharing this with us!
ReplyDeletethose are adorable!! My future daughter-in-law wants to do something like that for all the girls in the wedding! So, here is a silly question, once the vinyl is on, is it dishwasher safe??
ReplyDeleteAs for the vinyl it probably would be since I only use outdoor grade vinyl but any of the double wall tumblers are going to tell you to handwash.
