Vinyl Tutorial – Hinge Method

Do you love camping? Or have people in your life that camp? Lori recently added some fun files that could be used for camping décor or even camping trailer décor.  I have several tubs that have camping gear in them. The bins aren’t labeled, and I thought using the camping file would be a fun way to “label” them.  I also added the same file to a white bucket.  The bucket can be used to stow camping items, and at night, well look what I did below!

For this project I used the Life is Better When You’re Camping File (SVG, Silhouette).  It can be difficult applying a large vinyl decal to a curved surface, I used a method called the hinge method. I’ve outlined how I did it below.

1. Cut and weed your vinyl. Apply transfer tape to your vinyl project.  Leave the backing piece on.

2. Place your vinyl on the surface, making sure it’s centered, leaving the backing paper on for now, and tape it down the middle with some painter’s or washi tape.

3.  Working on one side of the tape, peel back the transfer tape with vinyl, separating it from the backing paper.  Cut or rip the paper backing off.  I just rip the backing straight down.

4. Now you have one side of your vinyl ready to apply.  Smooth the vinyl to the surface. And repeat for the other side.

5. Burnish the vinyl to the surface before peeling back the transfer tape.

Repeat on all the surfaces.

With a white or light colored bucket, a light can be placed inside for a fun night time glow at the campground!

Now you are ready to vinyl all the things!

Have a great day!

Cupcake Box Card Cut File Assembly Tutorial

Hi everyone!  Corri here today sharing a quick assembly tutorial for the new Cupcake Box Card (Silhouette, SVG).  The shaped box cards in Lori’s shop are assembled in the same general way as the box cards in this video.    The main difference is that the “box” shape is different, but the inserts are done in the same manner.  For the Cupcake Box Card I started by cutting the pieces.

First, layer the cupcake pieces on the inserts and add the decorative top layer to the cupcake wrapper.

Next, apply glue to the tab on the cupcake wrapper to form the “box.”

Finally, apply glue to the tabs on the frosting piece inserts and glue them to the interior edges of the box, placing one in front of the other (insert 1 in front).  Make sure the tabs on both inserts are facing in the same direction.

These shaped box cards are so cute and they fold flat for mailing!  Lori just added a bunch of new ones to the shop so head on over and grab one.    They are so fun and easy to put together.

Thanks so much for stopping by!
