DIY Diamond Trinket Dish on Maritza Lisa - Have you tried vinyl? Here's a simple tutorial (with download) to try! Click through for the details!

I interrupt our regularly scheduled paper crafting program to bring to you a DIY with… vinyl?! I know – not paper, but hear me out. This DIY Diamond Trinket Dish was a great way for me to do a simple project with vinyl. I had never used this medium before and I’m not sure why, because now I want to adhere vinyl to everything. I digress. Alexis from Persia Lou was sweet enough to ask me if I would be interested in joining her and a bunch of other lovely creative bloggers in a hop and giveaway that was vinyl-related. This was the perfect opportunity for me to try something new and creative, and I hope you will too. If you just discovered vinyl and want to take your interest and learning further, Alexis just launched her online Craftsy course, Silhouette Savvy: Venture into Vinyl – Yay, Alexis!

In this video-based online course, Alexis will walk you through creating eleven different vinyl projects. You will get all the cut files you need as well as video guidance for each step, and you will learn techniques such as layering adhesive vinyl, cutting large-scale decals, using the print and cut feature with printable heat transfer material, creating vinyl stencils for screen printing, and more. Details on the giveaway and links to incredible inspiration are below this tutorial…

The What

The How

  1. In Silhouette Studio, open your diamond design
  2. Set the Diamond shape to Cut Edge so that the cut lines are now on the internal and external edges of the shape
  3. Resize and replicate the design on your page for as many dishes you a doing
  4. Load your vinyl with no cutting mat
  5. Send to cut using Vinyl settings
  6. Once cut, unload and peel away the negative space of your shape, so that the diamond is left (the starter kits comes with a hook that is very helpful)
  7. Use the transfer paper to transfer your vinyl to your dish (the starter kits comes with a scraper that is very helpful)
