I finally decided to buy the Cricut Imagine. I was on the fence about it for a while. But then I was thinking when I start back making goody bags for my kids class and I'm talking about 65 bags, it would be nice to have the Imagine to cut one complete image and smack it down on the bags base. When I used my Expression to do it, it took forever to layer 65 images together.
I painted the Imagine by prepping the plastic first with some Clear Primer spray paint by Valspar for plastic. I was then able to use any spray paint and I chose a BEAUTIFUL shade a lavender purple by Krylon called Gum Drops. I AM IN LOVE WITH HOW IT LOOKS NOW.
Beautiful!! Thanks for posting this. I was torn between buying the end caps or attempting to do this myself. (I did just buy some great spray paint, but I see that I should get that plastic primer too.)
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for sharing your idea.
ReplyDeletePlace the bag in a protected spot where temperature remains around 68-80 degrees.
ReplyDeleteBetter to have a few, well chosen, bold splashes of color than to have
tiny spots of color spread all over a large area.
It made beautiful an awkward angle, an ugly bit of carpenter work.
