No Soliciting Sign! First Vinyl Project!
I have been wanting to make a no soliciting sign for a long time. I found lots of funny ones that I thought about doing but I really wanted to just get one made and on my door before anyone else rang my doorbell! This is the first time I used vinyl that I can remember. It was hard to get the letters straight and I did it without transfer tape.
I used black cardstock and cut the design out from Twinkle Toes Cricut Cartridge
No Soliciting letters are from Plantin School book
The Salesman and the No sign are from going places.
White and red vinyl
I then laminated it add some think hemp cord and hung it on my front door:

Back To School Book Worm Volunteer Notebook!
My girls have been in school for 5 weeks already! It may be September but here in Arizona we are still seeing temperatures of 108 so it still feels like summer!
If all goes as planned, this will automatically post because we will be installing my Daughter's furniture today! We had a set back with the paint colors, which originally were watermelon green and pink. However, once on the wall the green was really cartoon looking so it was back to square one. After many paint samples she finally picked Mint Majesty! We are thinking yellow for accent but that will be decided after the furniture gets moved in!
My Daughter needed a way to track her volunteer hours, so I made her this altered mini notebook. Her requests was that it had lots of ribbon on the side and her name so no one would steal it. (She never recovered from when someone stole the bookmark I made her in 1st grade!)
Here is her book:
Before:
After:
Book worm from April Showers Cricut Cartridge
Megan letters from Plantin Schoolbook
Papers from my School scrap pile
Icicle Stickles
All ribbons are from my ribbon scrap jug
The Twinery Twine: Peapod, Hand sewed X's
Red Brad

Hello crafty friends! This time of the year is so super busy with kids going back to school and adjusting to new schedules! I have been doing my best to stop by and visit, and I am sorry if I missed someone along the way. I am still working on my own schedule along with the rest of my family. I dislike the idea of having to "schedule" craft time, but right now it seems the only way. There is just so much I want to do in my day! :)
Here is a card I quickly put together while putting some of my craft supplies away:
Tag cut from Going Places Cricut cartridge
Butterfly from Sizzix Butterfly Die
