Oscar Night: Bird on the Linen Door

 

(source)

So while the Oscars where starting, I decided to do a mini project.  In between Eric's comments about Zac Efron's height, I found a bird and branch picture.  I used MTC to create the cut file.

Then I put my vinyl and mat into the cricut. And waited for it to finish.....

 

I then weeded out the vinyl I didn't want to use.  Then Dodger played with the extra vinyl.

The bird and branch looked like this:

The following process is the same process I used to get the name stencil on the wine glasses.  After I weeded the image I cut some clear contact paper to fit the image.

I removed the contact and placed it on the image.  Then I made sure there were no air bubbles by using an old credit card.

Then I removed the backing, making sure that all the pieces where on the clear contact. 

 

 I placed the image where I wanted it and then used the old credit card to eliminate the air bubbles.

 I took off the clear contact and made sure that the black vinyl stayed on the door. After I removed the clear contact, I made sure there were no bubbles in the vinyl. 

Here is the final project:

This was a super easy project and I was done before the red carpet segment was done. It took me longer to write the post but that might be the couple glasses of wine .

I guess I will go and finishing watching the Oscars with Eric to see who wins Best Picture.

Here is the MTC file: Perched Bird 
This file includes two different leaves. Duplicate the one you like and position on branch. Delete leaves you don't like.
