BBTB2 A Child's Year and Vinyl


This week on BBTB2 our challenge is the adorable Valentine cut from A Child's Year chosen by our fabulous DT Sister Jen. We also had the opportunity to incorporate Cricut vinyl from our sponsor this week, Expressions Vinyl . Oh what fun! I'd never done a vinyl project and was so excited to see the number of fabulous colors available. Expressions Vinyl also has some videos that take all the mystery out of creating fabulous vinyl projects in no time. I was particularly excited about the Chalkboard Vinyl. Imagine the projects you can create with this product. I chose to cover a door hanger with the chalkboard vinyl and then added the shadow and regular cut from A Child's Year with the white and brown red metallic vinyl. The videos made it super simple. Can't wait to try more projects with this fabulous stuff. All I added were some metallic red adhesive hearts from J's enhanced with adhesive pearls and a gorgeous bow from May Arts ribbon. So fun and EASY PEASY! Love this project! Hope you do too! Be sure to visit BBTB 2 and view the rest of the wonderfully creative ideas from my DT sisters and if you play along you have the chance to win some of this fabulous vinyl from Expressions Vinyl for yourself. All you need to do is use the cut from A Child's Year, so what are you waiting for?
