So, I’m not sure that this Halloween Sign qualifies as “subway art”, but I don’t really know what else to call it either. In any case, I love how it turned out and now I want to make something larger and more permanent with the technique. And probably not Halloween-themed, since you know – permanent. Maybe this will get done some time… Oh, and there’s a freebie printable version at the bottom of the post if you’re looking for a super easy Halloween Sign. Enjoy!
VINYL HALLOWEEN SIGN
Materials:
– Vinyl
– Cricut or other cutting tool (I’m so jealous of all those Silhouettes out there…)
– 8.5×11″ Document Frame
– Orange paper (or other color)
Directions:
I still have the .scut file I designed in SCAL for my Cricut if anyone wants it. That is such an outdated method though that I didn’t bother to upload it. Shoot me an email if you live under the same rock I do and want the file. At least until I can figure out if there’s a way to convert the file to svg and then everyone can have fun. Know any secrets, please share. =)
– I designed the file with three fonts: Arvo, which I got from fontsquirrel.com, Trick or Treat 2 and Evilz I found on fontspace.com. Click each link to be taken to the font page where you can download. All are commercial use friendly.
– After I had my file designed I cut it with my Cricut and then weeded the vinyl.
– Then I cleaned the glass on a Dollar Tree frame and stuck the vinyl to the glass.
– I opened up the frame and stuck an orange piece of paper inside and then sealed the frame again.
That’s it. Easy peasy, but I love the look of this vinyl Halloween Sign. And it’s super simple to change. This is totally my kind of project.
