Angie gave us a rating of 5 out of 5 Hearts as she loved that there are so many Vinyl colorsto choose from and that the Vinyl works great withany cutting machine. She also included an adorable tutorial of how to use Oh My Crafts Vinylto create a holiday phrase for your wall! You can read her full review and post by Clicking HERE!
Angie's second post using Oh My Crafts Vinyl included projects for Christmas! She first created a cute frame with a Christmas tree accent cut out of Ruby Glitter Vinyl. The second project used Vinyl to decorate plain ornaments. You can read the full tutorial by Clicking HERE!
Transfer Tape is a great tool for positioning vinyl as there are grid lines on the Vinyl to help you align your project. You can also see through the semi-transparent Transfer Tape, so placing your Vinyl in just the right place is easy. We want to thank Angie for reviewing our Vinyl and sharing her adorable projects with us :) Happy crafting!
