Are you ready for week two of the 12 Week Christmas Craft Challenge? Last week we started with paper, making simple Christmas gift tags. This week we're focusing on simple vinyl projects. If you are brand new to using a cricut machine, I have a Step by Step walk through of how to make your first vinyl sticker, and then how to transfer it onto a Dollar Tree Candle holder.
Then, for the "Choose Your Own Adventure" section this week, there's a section of 10+ ideas for gifts and stocking stuffers to make with vinyl.
And I'd love to see what you make! Join the group for this page to share your progress, ask questions, and be absolutely inundated with free svgs, posted by themes. :-) Join The FB Group For This Blog By Clicking Here
For which vinyl to buy, I have a list of my favorites, and price guidelines, here:
