The other day I was crafting with my friends who had never used a Cricut. Alls I did was show them which buttons did what, and they went to town. I have a few cartridges I’ve never really looked at and someone discovered a moose! Then, I fell in love with him and became inspired. I also bought some chrome spray paint earlier this week and wasn’t sure what to do with it. I put the moose, spray paint and some paint chips I grabbed today together and came up with this….
Here’s what you need:
paint chips
Cricut (or some good cutting skillllllz)
tape
canvas
spray paint
glue
Spray paint your canvas.
Let it dry. Meanwhile, put your paint chips next to each other on your Cricut mat. Tape them down. My canvas is an 8×10, and I used 4 paint chips. The paint chips were from the Gliddan brand and I found them at WalMart.
Then, I used the Animal Kindgom cartridge for the moose. Here’s where your creativity comes in. If you don’t have a Cricut, bless your soul. When it’s finished cutting, remove the moose!
Be careful taking off the tape. A tiny bit of color came off with the tape from the paint chip. Glue that sucker onto your canvas! I laid something heavy on top to make all the ends stay down.
The end.
Next time you make something like this, just put the tape on the backside of the four corners. If paper comes off no biggie. I sold my Cricut. Now Im sad.
You should unsell your Cricut
