Hello!! Happy June!! Happy Summer!! Time for new clothes and new cell phone designs!!
Lori here from ScrappinMyStressAway with a fun project for you today!!
I made this cell phone vinyl design for a friend of mine. Kylie is one of my helpers in my daycare and her boyfriend of 2 years is currently deployed. She saw a similar cell phone monogram design on Pinterest and asked me if I thought I could make one for her and Andrew - Challenge accepted!!!
I have a file saved in my Gypsy that is the exact size of my Samsung LG phone. Kylie has the same phone so I just opened my file and got designing!
I have a rectangle that I sized to 2.5 w x 4.5 h. I unlocked the chain and used Real Size to get this configuration.
I opened another layer and left the eye open on the first so I could see it though the mat.
I used the font from Martha Stewart Elegant Cake Art. I made the & 1.42 inches and the A and K each .70 inches. I came to these measurements by welding first and then sizing the design to fit the space.
I cut the monogram out in purple vinyl.
I set my cricut to speed 3, pressure 3 and blade depth 3 and cut.
So pretty!!!
Speaking of pretty....here is Kylie and Andrew!!
Thank you for having me over today Sheila!!! I hope everyone has a great start to the summer!!
How sweet of you. Does the vinyl stay on with all the handling a cell phone goes through, I wonder?
ReplyDeleteGood question Charlotte! My first design was pretty intricate and lasted about 6 weeks. I tend to change with the holidays/seasons!
DeleteWhat a great idea.... I bet alot of people are going to be decorating their phones now! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteGreat cut love the font! TFS
ReplyDeleteGreat project!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cool project! TFS ;)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Lori - I was curious how long it lasted. But considering it's a small piece of vinyl used beautifully, guess it's not too big a deal to just redo it when needed.
