Doodlecraft Watercolor Patterned Vinyl and Iron on! I'm super excited about today! It's release day for my Patterned Vinyl Collaboration with Expressions Vinyl. Clear back in March I signed up to collaborate with Expressions Vinyl on 10 designs to be turned into vinyl and iron on vinyl. I picked vivid watercolors as my medium and I love how all 10 patterns work together. It's like my runway collection.

Wood Box or Tray
Wood Piece to fit inside box

Cut out the adhesive vinyl and then apply it to the smaller wood piece.

The calligraphy phrases are all about 4x6 inches, so it's easy to find pieces that size.

Step 4: Block Risers

Use a hobby knife to cut off pieces of the vinyl where the risers will attach.

Space them apart so the board on top will be balanced, yet the blocks underneath wont show.

Place the wood calligraphy piece on top of the blocks.

There's a little workable time with the E6000, so slide it around so it's perfectly lined up.

Then let the glue dry completely while it is laying flat.
