OFF THE MAT: PENNYWISE - IT

Love love love how this turned out!!! Mixing a little luminous htv with my usual glitter cardstock for this craziness 🤡🤡😱just perfection 💛💛💛

26 inches and he glows in the dark! I used the luminous htv (heat transfer vinyl from Poli-Tape) on cardstock to get a super scary effect. In love!!

Tips:

1. I like to weld pieces together to make it easier to piece together and have fewer pieces to keep track of. For example check out the collar. I added little circles to connect pieces.

2. I struggled with the htv a bit because I didn’t apply enough pressure and heat. Next time it’ll be better. But I absolutely loved the results.

DIY ACRYLIC WEDDING SIGN

Acrylic signs. It’s been one of my favorite projects because it’s so easy to do it flawlessly.Make sure the design is cut with adhesive vinyl or HTV/iron-on vinyl AND draw your design. The drawing will go underneath the acrylic sign and will be your guide ensuring a perfectly straight sign. When you’re not worrying about where to place the vinyl, you can concentrate on keeping the vinyl taut ... ensuring there are no bubbles. This works for big signs and small signs!!

OFF THE MAT: SELENA

The video tutorials were different this time because each process took many hours. So for the design space tutorial, it was more of a ‘tour’ of what was on my canvas, why I did certain things, and how to work this file. Would love to get your thoughts on this!!!! And the assembly video did not go through the entire process. But trust me when I tell you it took many many hours 🤣😂😆.

OFF THE MAT: TIANA PARTY PROP

It’s Tiana at 30 inches! She looks so pretty in person 💚💚💚💚.

Tips:

1. I see a lot of people flipping their mat over to pull off cardstock so it doesn’t curl the paper. I really hate to do that to my mat cause it picks up debris and makes the mat less sticky. If you pull the cardstock towards you as you unstick it from the mat, it works just as well ❤️.

DIY 3D LETTERS: TIANA - PRINCESS AND THE FROG

3D letters for a Princess and The Frog Tiana themed party! This was a brand new area for me this year and I absolutely loved it. I’m still learning how to add to it cause surprisingly it’s different than layering a cake topper or banner. But this is definitely on my list for 2021 to get better at editing/adding/designing. 💚💚💚.

LAWNMOWER CAKE TOPPER

This 5 yr old wanted this lawnmower. 😂🤣. Let me just say there was not a single lawnmower cake topper on Pinterest or Etsy to get ideas! It was a challenge for me to limit my glitter cardstock. 😂🤣. I hope he enjoys the John Deere mower and the hammers in the shaker. Lol.

Tip: for the slider, the Perler brand perler beads are great! Thanks to @thecraftyblock on IG for this awesome idea. ❤️💕💜.

OFF THE MAT: REY - STAR WARS

Look at this little badass - Rey from Star Wars! She’s 30 inches of cardstock and stinking adorable ❤️💙💚💛💜🧡

Tips:

1. Do not attempt to do this any smaller than 30 inches. There are too many details (aka little pieces).

2. There are many pieces that need to be modified (unlock to make bigger) in order to weld with another piece. Otherwise you will have even more pieces than you will want to deal with. 😂🤯😬
