NOTICE!

Hey Folks! I started this blog before pinterest came along, or before I found it, at least. A lot of the posts here are merely links to things I wanted to remember. I need space on my account, so if you find something you like, open the link and then pin it quick, as I will be deleting the posts that are not my original ideas.

There will be vinyl everywhere!

Santa surprised me with a Silhouette machine for Christmas. I love that guy! My Hubby helped me play with it the other day. His design software skills come in quite handy.  We printed off a little image for my beat up phone...

and then we worked out a design of our own for the laptop.  We had seen some pretty cool decals for laptops, this was the style I wanted.  We found a swatch of fabric online that had the basic pattern, and my dear converted it and dressed it up to fit just right. I love it.


I am sure there will be many posts to follow! 

*Note to self: Check out this site for ordering vinyl 
*Note to self: When cutting on contact paper, use thickness 1, blue blade, and speed around 5.  Cut paper to 9 inches wide to fit under feed rollers.
