Well, have been blogging three days straight. That is a new worlds record, considering that I have 3 blogs and a blog that acts as a website. (one day I will have some nice 14 year old to really set up my website, or hire someone.
Well, I have my first order. The person wanted a simple tag, made out of blue/silver metal. Now I have never made anything out of metal sheets before. But I get it, and it has been a challenge for me. first of all, it is rolled up, so I have to unroll it, and place it on the Cricut mat. I am using the 12x24 mat, and made the decision to switch to the 12x12 mat. The reason is the sheets are much easier to handle. Did I mention that the client wanted 450 tags? OK the problems: Thank God for metal sheets that are forgiving, because these things bend on a dime. I am working with super sticky mats. the printer would not except the tags as is to print on, so I am cutting a second set of white tags, printing on one side, and adhere to the back of the tags. I am alternating between the blue side and the silver side. and they look like this:
I love the results and so the client when I showed him the images.
Well that is it. Short and sweet. Next time, I hope to show you some holiday stuff. Until next time, God Bless you.
Love the blue! I wonder why the printer would not accept the sheets to print on. Are you using the Cricut Imagine or just a regular printer?
