Vinyl Halloween Sign & Printable

So, I’m not sure that this Halloween Sign qualifies as “subway art”, but I don’t really know what else to call it either.  In any case, I love how it turned out and now I want to make something larger and more permanent with the technique.  And probably not Halloween-themed, since you know – permanent.  Maybe this will get done some time…  Oh, and there’s a freebie printable version at the bottom of the post if you’re looking for a super easy Halloween Sign.  Enjoy!

VINYL HALLOWEEN SIGN
Vinyl Halloween Sign
Materials:
– Vinyl
– Cricut or other cutting tool (I’m so jealous of all those Silhouettes out there…)
– 8.5×11″ Document Frame
– Orange paper (or other color)
Directions:
I still have the .scut file I designed in SCAL for my Cricut if anyone wants it.  That is such an outdated method though that I didn’t bother to upload it.  Shoot me an email if you live under the same rock I do and want the file.  At least until I can figure out if there’s a way to convert the file to svg and then everyone can have fun.  Know any secrets, please share.  =)
– I designed the file with three fonts: Arvo, which I got from fontsquirrel.com, Trick or Treat 2 and Evilz I found on fontspace.com.  Click each link to be taken to the font page where you can download.  All are commercial use friendly.
– After I had my file designed I cut it with my Cricut and then weeded the vinyl.
– Then I cleaned the glass on a Dollar Tree frame and stuck the vinyl to the glass.
– I opened up the frame and stuck an orange piece of paper inside and then sealed the frame again.

That’s it.  Easy peasy, but I love the look of this vinyl Halloween Sign.  And it’s super simple to change.  This is totally my kind of project.
For an even easier version, grab the watermark-free Halloween Sign printable.

I'm Krista. Ringleader here on While He Was Napping, wife to my handsome Mr. Right & momma to my THREE energetic boys, Big J (9), Little J (6) & Little N (4). We FINALLY added a beautiful little girl to our family last December.

I’m knee-deep in Tonka trucks & Thomas trains. I survive our crazy days with Vanilla Coke, Sonic slushies, sweet snuggles and little giggles. When I tuck them in tight & kiss them good night, I get a little time to create & just be me.
