Christmas Tile Video-




I got this file (it's an svg) from Jeannie on the cricut mb.  Her mb name is kidzanangel7.  She does beautiful plaques, and is very generous with her files!  I love everything about this-the saying and the graphics.  I will be making more!  The tile is a smooth ceramic tile from Home Depot, 11 1/2 x 11 1/2.  I still need to cover the edges with narrow ribbon, add a ribbon hanger, and cover the back with paper.

I love your site and your ideas, thank you for sharing with us. I too am a SAHM but my children are now full grown and I babysit others. I have a couple of questions:
Can you email me where you got that tape from? Also where do you purchase your vinyl?

Thank you

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it!!! Love the saying, love the color of the vinyl, everything!!!! Thanks SO very much for sharing. I just read a tip on the Cricut mb that when you are working with vinyl, if you spritz the surface you are applying the vinyl to with a solution of Crystal White dish liquid and water, you can move the vinyl around, the squeegee out the water. Haven't tried it yet, but it might work!

I think this tile is beautiful. I have downloaded the file but when I go to open it in SCAL nothing happens. I am very new to this, so I am sure I am doing something wrong. :(

Thanks so much for sharing this video; I do a lot of vinyl too, but my Big Lots did not have the clear contact paper; where did you say you by your transfer paper?
