I’m constantly brainstorming new and fresh ideas for holiday decor for my home. I literally have a notebook out on my kitchen counter about 90% of the time so I can easily write down ideas when inspiration strikes. With a slew of patriotic holidays coming up, I’ve had red, white, and blue craft projects brewing and I’m excited to finally share the first one: Patriotic Vinyl Wall Art! Thanks to Expressions Vinyl, this was super simple and quick to put together.
Materials:
digital cutting machine or craft knife
Expressions Vinyl Permanent Vinyl in Dark Blue
Expressions Vinyl Ultra Glitter Sheet in Dark Red
scraper tool or credit card
One of the following cut files:
- PDF for Manual Cutting: Patriotic Vinyl Wall Decor
- PNG File to load into Cricut Design Space
Directions:
One. Begin by cutting the artwork out. I’ve included a pdf for those that don’t own a digital die cutting machine (I use a Cricut) and a PNG file for those that do. If you don’t have a cutting machine, use the craft knife to trace the image on the vinyl. NOTE: the firework image is only available in the Cricut Design Space, but you could easily recreate this on your own, if needed.
Two. Weed the image to leave only the vinyl that you’ll be applying to the canvas. Apply the Press N Seal to just cover the vinyl. Trim any excess Press N Seal. This will make things easier in the next few steps.
Three. Carefully remove the white backing from the vinyl so that only the vinyl and the Press N Seal are left. Transfer the wording first to the canvas and position it where you’d like for it to be.
Four. Using either the scraper or a credit card, press firmly over the top of the vinyl/Press N Seal combo, ensuring the you go over every inch of the vinyl wording.
Five. Carefully peel back the Press N Seal to reveal your vinyl art. Repeat steps two through four with the fireworks, as well.
Isn’t the glittery vinyl so fun?! I swear I could use this glitter vinyl on so.many.things!
Now, I know that some super adorable Patriotic Vinyl Wall Art is totally exciting on it’s own, but things are about to get even better!
