A quick glass block


Fall is finally in the air..yippee!!!

I needed to take a break away from the tiles for a while, so quickly made this glass block. I usually put vintage Christmas images on the blocks but wanted to try making one with vinyl. Thanks for stopping by and enjoy what's left of the weekend.

Fall Tile



Last night I was going through some of my vintage and letterpress images looking for inspiration and I came across this leave and acorn border. I decided to cut it and see how it turned out. Lot's of weeding and lot's of detail, but here is the result. I didn't get it applied straight, but since it doesn't have a straight line outter edge and I can sit it on an angle, maybe it won't be too noticable. Feel free to grab the image. Happy crafting!

Claddaugh Image


I have had several requests for the file for the Claddaugh tile. I will have to learn how to share the scut file, but in the meantime I am posting the clipart I used to make it. Just right click on the image and save to your pictures. If you have scal 2 you can get it right into there, if you have scal 1 you will have to use inkscape.

New tiles for craft show





This past weekend I spent some time designing some new tiles for a craft show I am doing later this month. I hope you like them, Thanks for looking

Lampshade using vinyl and A child's first year





This was a fun project. It was also the first time I wish I had design studio. I would have been able to get the images to scale. The images are just cut on white vinyl and placed on the inside of the shade. When the light is turned off, you don't even notice that they are there. Thanks for looking

Survivor Tile


Happy Sunday everyone. The weekends sure do go by quickly. I just wanted to share a tile I made yesterday for a friend battling breast cancer. Sadly, I need to make a couple more of these. I'm not very good at the designing part. This had so many words and I knew it might be difficult to weed so I kept the fonts very simple. I still managed to loose a comma or two and all the "I"'s are not dotted. I hope you like it. Thanks for stopping by.

A couple more tiles





I really haven't been slackin' everyone. Have lots of pictures I need to get on here and will try to catch up over the next few days. But for now here are a couple of tiles I did last night. These are not my designs, but were purchased from myvinyldesigner.com. They have some really nice pre-designed svg's.
Thanks for stopping by and have a creative day.
