Lisa Somerville's Wall Plaque
Our design team never cease to amaze us! Today we have a beautiful project from our designer Lisa, that is not only classy and easy to do, but it would be a great handmade gift for the holidays!
Here is her how-to:
Wall Plaque
Designer – Lisa
Somerville
Details:
Photo (sized to fit wood piece)
Wood
Transfer Tape or
Contact Paper
Light Brown Vinyl
Needle or Craft Pick
Tool
Sponge Brush
Sable Brown Acrylic
Paint
eCraft
Sanding Block/Ink
Blending Tool, Ranger Distress Ink Gathered Twigs (optional)
Printer
eCraft Settings:
Pressure Setting – 1
Tab Density –0
Tab Width – 0
Multi Cut – 0
Blade Cap – on
Card Stock Stabilizer used
Prep your fame if needed by
painting the sides with Arcylic paint, let dry.
In photo program size photo to fit wood, print photo onto Square 1
Printable Adhesive Fabric, let dry.
(Note I changed my photo to Sepia)
If your photo is a larger
than the area you are putting it on, just sand off the sides with a Sanding
Block.
If desired ink edges of photo to blend in with painted
wood. Here I used Gathered Twigs
Distress Ink.
Open SCAL3 type desired text, resize and send to eCraft; cut
from Light Brown Vinyl.
Weed vinyl, leaving words.
NOTE – this is where the new eCraft Tool Kit comes in handy!
Apply Transfer Tape over cut letters, pressing firmly.
Carefully remove backing, to reveal vinyl on Transfer
Tape. Note sticky side of the vinyl is
now facing you. The Transfer Tape is a
bit tacky like Painters Tape – don’t worry it won’t stick to your project. Place sticky side down onto your project; rub
gently to remove vinyl words onto your project.
