Home Is Where My Story Begins

A Silhouette Nativity

I attempted my first real Silhouette project today. I have tried a few tags and cards, but just for practice. Today I tried vinyl. I found an old wooden tray at Goodwill last Summer. It was cream with a beautiful ivy sticker on the front. I sanded the tray, painted it white, and then moved on to the fun part.

 

I’ll admit, the first time I tried placing the vinyl down, it turned into a big sticky, tangled mess. After a few practice sessions, I think I have the hang of it! I can’t wait to try more projects.
