So, I wanted to make a vinyl lettering block for Christmas that I could give to the ladies I visit from church. I looked on Pinterest to get some good ideas before I started. I saw a few blocks that had a lot of Christmas words all over. I really liked them and might make some of them for our home, but for the one I had in mind, I wanted something a little more about the Savior and a little less about Santa. I decided on the phrases I wanted, and set to work. After I got all the words and fonts I wanted, I arranged them so they fit together, and added an ornament and a Christmas star.
I used silver vinyl for the border and most of the phrases, but did the center in black so it would stand out more. On one, I did all silver, and it looked really nice that way too. I cut it out with my Silhouette SD (which I love by the way!) and put it on a wooden plaque I got from JoAnn's and painted green.
It's not perfect by any means, but it turned out about how I wanted it to. Hopefully it will add a little extra Christmas spirit to some already awesome homes this year!
Love those, Lauren! Merry Christmas!
