[Video]How to make Vinyl Monogrammed Cups-Cricut Artbooking

Need a quick gift - maybe for a teacher, co-worker, friend? Scouting troop?

These monogrammed tumblers are the answer!

I got the tumblers at Dollar Tree. Then, using the Close to My Heart Artbooking Cricut Cartridge for the font and the free Cricut Craft Room Basic Shapes for the circles (scalloped and regular), I made these quick gifts by applying vinyl to the tumblers.

You can always add in a kind note and a gift card on the inside!

I used the Close to My Heart Artbooking cartridge for the monograms (see below):

    Wow, what a fantastic, inexpensive gift. I have tried vinyl. I made a sign for my craft room that says "Create".

    I"m not "into" vinyl like so many people are. Mostly because I don't need all the the things that are being made with it. I have cut a few very simple things in the past, with my Cricut

    I tried vinyl once....to put the address on the mailbox. Don't know what I did wrong; but, vowed never to use it again. Fantastic project. Thanks for sharing your time, talents, and ideas with us.

    I've dabbled with vinyl a little, very intimidated by it. You make it look so simple, I may try those cute tumblers. Thanks for your helpful video.

    Joy,
    Cute idea. I have used vinyl with my Cricut for marking the address outdoors. Works great and stands up to the weather.

    I have very little experience with vinyl. One time I was successful. The other time it was a waste.

    I love using vinyl, but find that I need the ones that can go through the dishwasher. Where can we get cheap outdoor/automotive vinyl?

    I bought vinyl because my husband wanted to buy letters to put "Old Fart Cart" on his golf cart. I used red vinyl and he gets lots of laughs and on it. Same thing when we had to replace our mailbox. I used the leftover vinyl to put our house number and Last name on our mailbox.
