Using Adhesive Vinyl on Gift Bags

Описание: Adding a little bit of vinyl to a plain and boring gift bag can make all the difference. And it is so simple and quick to do. What a great way to personalize all your gift giving this season.

For this project here are a few things you need:

Adhesive Vinyl - https://expressionsvinyl.com/adhesive...
Any type will work.
Transfer Tape, we used the gridlined to help us line up everything on our bag but any type will do - https://expressionsvinyl.com/transfer...
Gift Bags - You can find these at most craft and department stores.
Ribbon - Grab a patterned one or use Heat Transfer vinyl in it to make it patterned - https://expressionsvinyl.com/heat-tra...
Fun images or phrases for your gift. This used the following:
Merry Christmas - Phrases #M396CD
Holly - Winter is in the Air #M352B5

Now you are ready to go. Dig out your Cricut, Silhouette, Brother or any other machine you want to use and start cutting. Make sure you check the cut settings and do test cuts on the different types of vinyl you use. They are all a little bit different. Here is a link to all the ones we have and they are a good spot to start - https://expressionsvinyl.com/machine-...

Once your image is cut out, weed all the excess vinyl out of the way and apply your transfer tape. If you have a layered image, we suggest doing the layering before you actually apply it to your project. To do that simply take the top layer and apply it to the bottom later. If you have more, take both of those and apply them to the 3rd layer. This way you will only be using a small piece of transfer tape and only applying it to the paper bag one time.

If you are adding vinyl to the ribbon make sure that you have mirrored your image. All images being cut from heat transfer vinyl need to be mirrored. Weed the excess vinyl out and you are ready to apply it to the ribbon. On this project we used a mini iron so that we could easily apply to the small area. It is a Dritz Mini Iron that we found at Walmart but you can find them at local craft and sewing stores as well.

We can't wait to see all your fun gift giving ideas.
