"Let it" has been cut on the Cricut after being designed and welded on the computer. The "s" also received a sponging of White Daisy Ink (Z2863) around the letter.
"N" is sporting paper from JoAnn's store. I really wish we had something like this - it's super fun and fits the project so well!
Like I mentioned already, the "O" is from our White Glitter Paper (Z3237). I love the sparkle.
"W" has been stamped with Pansy ink (Z2804) on JoAnn paper (clearly I was shopping when I picked the papers out. I blame the snowflake paper). The snowflakes are Falling Flakes A1223.
Let me back up a little bit.
After I chose my colors, I traced each letter on the appropriate paper, making sure the front of the letter kissed the back of the paper. The line around the letter was as close to the letter as possible.
Next I cut each of the letters out, staying on the drawn line. If you are going to stamp, now is the time to do it. I actually stamped the snowflakes before I cut out the "W".
I applied mog pog to the letters (rather than the paper) one at a time. Then I placed the cut out paper on top of the mog pog. The mog pog allows you a little bit of time before setting in order to place the letter where it needs to go.
After the letter dries, you can use a craft knife to cut excess paper away. Although if you traced your letter close to the letter, you shouldn't have to cut. You can also use sand paper (from the front to the back) to remove excess paper.
After making each letter pretty, I sponged the "S".
"Let" and "it" were welded and cut. I used my non -stick micro-tip scissors (Z1836) to cut very thin pieces (and small) of thin 3D foam tape (Z2060) to prop up the letters.
This home decor will be going up in my home in January. It should take a little sting from the empty mantel after my moose/deer collection gets put away.
The answer was, "we're going to pass ... for Winter [quarter]". Oh, well, I still had fun making and sharing it with you! : )
