Vinyl on a Cookie Jar

Well.. this picture will not rotate correctly for me at all!

We thought the jar needed a little dressing up.

Val and I worked together and came up with this.. She had some ribbon and she cut up a christmas bag and stuck it in so we could photograph it better.

Vinyl Angel

Wow!
This was a piece of work! I found that indoor vinyl is a bit more flimsy than outdoor vinyl. I've never made a project this big using vinyl. It was a bit more intricate than I expected and thank goodness my sister came over to help me. Also learned... I should have put this on GLASS or some other SMOOTH surface. MY DOOR IS PITTED... not smooth!!!!!!!!!!!! argh!!! Whew. I used the cartridge Christmas. I love my Gypsy. I used layer one for the angel and layer two I used Car Decals to print out I heart my cricut. I got the most out of my vinyl!

I was inspired thanks to JOY over at http://joyslife.com/ .
I also credit her super duper DVD available here:

This is how it turned out : 

whew! It did turn out rather well. Glad I tried it.

Now if I can entice my sister back over  I MIGHT consider.. flipping the image and putting this up on the other side of the peep hole...at least now we know what we are in for! 

Thank you Joy!
