 With Mother's Day quickly approaching I wanted to create some personalized crafts and show you step-by-step how to create them Today, I will be creating some DIY Mother's Day subway tiles using some 651 vinyl These are really easy and fun to create and I can't wait to show you how to create these So let's get started with Mother's Day quickly approaching. I wanted to show everyone how to do these They are so quick and easy to create and you can change them and use whatever colors you want Use whatever kind of blocks you want. I'm just using the regular ones that I bought from a Nards They're just like clear ones that I picked up from a Nards I think they were under $3 a piece and then these files here that I have I Purchased these off of the last design bundle dollar deal So I got all of these for a dollar which was amazing because if you go look now There are a couple bucks a piece So I got a really good deal there And I always leave the link and always let you guys know ahead of time before the dollar deal begins So you don't want to miss out on that. So that's where I got these I will leave the link below in case you're interested in purchasing these my girls don't really call their grandparents Nana, so I'm just gonna get rid of these ones Anyways, and then this mama one. I don't really like too much. So I'm just gonna work with these three here So I'm just gonna take these and X out, but I just wanted to show you what they actually look like when you purchase them So You guys know me if you follow my channel I like to visualize things and see how things are gonna look you can skip ahead if you don't want to do this part But I love doing this part to visualize it So what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna go to the left here grab a shape click on square And I'm gonna make the square the size of my tile that I'm using and it's a roughly a 4 by 12 I have my tile on my mat right now and I can kind of see it's just a little bit smaller than a 4 by 12 But for visual to visualize it. I'm just gonna change it. So I have it selected here I'm gonna go to the unlock box up here and then change the width to be 12 and then the height to 4 So again, you don't have to do this part is just to visualize it instead of going in here and saying okay I want this to be you know 11 and a half by 3 and a half I like to visualize to see what it looks like So I'm gonna start with this grandma one here actually and pull it over and you see it went black So don't be afraid your image is still there You just have to go to the arrange button up here and send to front So here it is. So what I like to do is put it up in the corner and then take the double arrow and drag it and You can leave it this way if you want and leave all the space above here and down below But I'm gonna actually unlock it here on the left here and just drag it down a little bit just to see what it's gonna look like so remember that If you do 12 by 4 for your tile itself or the background here It's not actually a 12 by 4 so it's gonna be a little bit smaller. So actually I'm gonna make this just a little bit smaller Just to visualize what it's gonna look like so I want to make sure that my file is not going to go over that box So this is where visualizing comes in really handy. So you can see how it's gonna look on your tile Rather than just guessing and saying okay, I want this to be 11 by 3, you know, so now you can visualize it to see what it looks like so I Really like how this one looks so I'm gonna leave this one down here next what I'm gonna work on is the best mom ever So again, I'm gonna move it. It's gonna go behind. So I'm gonna click arrange center front I like to put them up in the corner and then just stretch it out from there and then unlock it and Then just pull it down. You can kind of see Where you want it and it doesn't have to be this stretched out I mean you can make it smaller if you want just like this But again, it's just to visualize it just to see what it looks like So I really like this one and then we're gonna do the last one really quick again go up to the range center front And then just make it larger. These don't all have to be the same size I think that's a fun part of it too is you can kind of make them different sizes You can make them bigger smaller You can make it like kind of like this one actually where it's got more room at the top So I'm gonna leave this one the way it is too. So we don't need this part This was just to visualize what it was gonna look like. So The next part here So I have the three here that I want you can tell that they're different sizes So on the side here this first one you can tell that they're all Ungrouped so if you go to cut this out, it's gonna cut each individual piece Separately and it's gonna be a real mess. So the way I like to do this is actually click the ungroup button up here And I worked with this one already before so I already have the size right the most important thing to do is change the size First before you even do this next part. So this part is all together. So I have this best ever on here I'm gonna move this over and since we ungrouped it. This is what it's gonna look like So it would cut out each one of these pieces individually. We don't want that So I'm gonna go ahead and select it all and I'm gonna go to the attach button down here So it attached all of these pieces for me together So when I go to cut this out, it'll cut out just as it looks So if you're bringing this back in here, it doesn't really matter where it goes right now Because we're not gonna cut it out together. I'm gonna actually gonna change the color. So I Guess you can leave it the way it was and just change the color But I want to do two different variations of colors So I think for the first one I'm going to be using a holographic color So it doesn't really matter what I choose on here So I have the best ever selected and I go to the color box and I'm just gonna choose this You know lighter pink color here and then I want the mom to be a different color So I'm gonna go up to the color box again, and I'm gonna choose, you know This color doesn't have to be these two colors. It's just when I go to cut it out I know that I'm going to be using Holographic and I know it's going to be two different colors. So Let's say I want all this to be the same color all you have to do oops Wrong button. All you have to do is you know select all of it And then you can go to the attach button here and then that will cut everything out all together as one piece I'm sure you know me. So I'll change this one to blue. So this is what this is gonna look like So it's gonna cut out is one whole piece together So I'll do this one last one the grandma best ever and you got to do the same thing on group up here And then this should come down here. So you have two different ones So here it is again best ever we can change the color again So I'm just gonna choose green it doesn't have to be that I'm going to be cutting this out green It's just going to tell me that I want it to be different and then when I go to cut these two out up here That are gonna be on holographic. I'm gonna know on my head. Okay for the pink and the red It's going to be holographic and then for this one this blue, you know, it could be a red color But I know that it would be just regular vinyl. So in your head you just kind of kind of remember that So for this last one again, it's gonna cut out separately. So you want to select all of it Go down here and push attach. Whoops as you saw when that flashed if you saw that a little bit flash here I actually did not grab every single piece. I don't know if you guys caught that or not But I'm gonna go ahead and select it again and now I'm gonna push attach So this time it grabbed all those pieces. So before it was missing, you know This little piece here and the piece to here. So I wanted to make sure that we got all of that So again, it doesn't matter where this is going to go right now Honestly, don't remember where it was. So it doesn't matter where it's gonna go I think it was about there, right? I think that was about it It doesn't matter where it's gonna go because it's gonna cut out separately anyway So for this one with all the colors the same and it's already attached It's gonna cut out as you see it. So you won't have to or anything together So for this last one, I'm just gonna change the gram of color to let's say A yellow and again, it doesn't have to be these colors It's just in the back of my mind that I know that again I want this to be holographic and this will be one other color and then this too. So that is it So we resized it, right? We resize it to what we want We change the color and we attached everything. So now we're gonna go to the make it and I'm gonna show you what it looks like Okay, so here it is. You might be able to hear my machine in the background I turned it off and I forgot to turn it back on. So here's what it looks like So like I said, this is going to be the holographic. So when I go to cut this out I'm gonna show you which setting I use and then I'll show you these other ones really quick what they look like because we attached it Everything is gonna cut out exactly how we want it. So I'm gonna click continue and I'll show you which Setting I use so for this first one again holographic. So for the first and second one I'm going to be using holographic. So I have this one right here at this premium vinyl holographic This is what I'm going to use for the first two and then when I cut out the grandma and Best ever and then this one I'm going to be using regular vinyl. So very important You want to go back and change it to whatever you're going to be using. So I'm going to be using just regular vinyl I use stencil vinyl for this. So before I cut out the yellow the green and the blue I'm gonna come back and push Stencil vinyl so I hope that makes sense to you guys so because I'm using holographic first I'm going to change that We're not we don't have to mirror this. We don't have to Do anything else with this. So I'm going to get the holographic vinyl on there I love this holographic vinyl. I bought I will leave it in the link below in case you're interested in it But I'm going to go ahead and cut these out on the Cricut I will weed it out and then I'll show you the next step of putting this on to your tile And it is gonna turn out beautiful and any mom or grandma would love to have this So stay tuned guys. Let's finish this up All right, so I finished cutting out my files. I'll show you them here quick So I did this one in the glitter vinyl and then I did this one in the holographic vinyl I don't know how well it shows up and then this one goes to the together I just chose to do a gold one for grandma and then black for best ever And I'm gonna show you I did two of them really quick to show you what it looked like So this is the grandma best ever and I'm not sure if it shows up Well because this is white, but I really love how this turned out and then I'm gonna show you the holographic one Which I'm not really too impressed with on this white. It's kind of hard to see But I think it's really pretty. So those are those two and then I'll show you the tile alone that I bought So I bought it off or I bought it from Menards And I think that one scratched a little bit and I think it was like under three dollars for the whole glass thing And they have a whole bunch of different colors, but I chose to get like the clear one here It's got this nice white backing on it So you don't have to do anything with the back The only thing you have to do is clean the top with this You just want to take some alcohol on like a paper towel or something and rub it really well and clean it So you don't have any finger marks or anything on it or any dust or anything So I already did that so I'm just gonna take my file And I'm just gonna start with I'll start with an easier one So I could do this one I'm gonna do this gold one. I really want to see what this one looks like. So this is the Glitter gold one, so I'm just gonna take Some transfer tape and you all know I hate cricket if you are subscribed to a channel, you know, I hate cricket But I have this cricket Transfer tape that I'm gonna give a try and see how it works It came with a couple of the rolls that I bought previously And I never use the transfer tape. So I'm gonna give the transfer tape a try I still don't really care for the vinyl itself. So I'm gonna see if she was I can even get it off I'm going to see how this transfer tape Compares to the kind that I have. I do like it that it has the grid on it, but I also have some stuff from Frisco, I think it's called and I really love their transfer tape. It has the lines on it as well So I'm gonna kind of compare these two and see which one I like better I do love this that it has the grid lines on it so I can kind of line it up at the top with my file and We'll see how it works and then I love this it's got a soft part on the edge here And then you got the hard part here. I love this because no matter how hard you scrape you're not gonna Tear or rip your transfer tape. I really love this scraper It's a little bit smaller But I love this one compared to the other ones that I've been using because I had not ripped or tear Tor anything with this. So if you're interested in this, I'll leave the link below, but I really love this It does a really good job So what I like to do is Pick it up and then work backwards to make sure that I get everything off So we will see how this transfer tape works So hmm, although I scrubbed it really hard or rubbed it really hard. It's still not coming off Very well And you know what? I see another problem. I totally forgot This is cricket brand. What do I say about cricket brand? I hate it So I do actually notice that this vinyl is the cricket brand. So I think that's why I'm having the issues here I've never really Got any great results with the cricket brand. I don't know. Is it just me guys? Is it you? I don't know what I'm doing wrong I'm using the cricket brand and the cricket transfer tape And it still doesn't want to come off and I scrubbed with this really really hard and it's still not coming off I don't know If it's just me if I'm doing something wrong, but I've never had this issue with any other vinyl that I've had before I went extra slow because it's just picking up the pieces here So I am not happy with this transfer tape. I am not happy with this vinyl I think I'm gonna stick with what I do I just buy whatever cheapest off of Amazon, but I love the and I think I'm saying it right the Fresco, I think I'm saying that right. I'm gonna double-check and I'll leave the link below to what I use But I am not impressed with this at all So I'm just gonna take one of my tiles and Then I guess that's where the grid comes in handy as you can kind of see where you're gonna put it before You lay it down I'm gonna move my camera a little bit closer so you guys can see this there Hopefully it's a little bit better for you guys to see So here is my file and then I'm just gonna go ahead and Find the center of this with the grid lines So I know it's straight on the top and the bottom And you want to make sure it's straight on the sides too so there And I guess the test will be to make sure that this comes off of the transfer tape But here's what it looks like so far I'm just gonna take my squeegee again and work really hard And push this vinyl down Like I said, I really do not like the Cricut brand You know leave a comment down below. Do you use Cricut? What brands do you guys use? I would love to know what you guys are using if you have the same issue with the Cricut brand as I do or if it's just me I don't know. I just don't like it. It doesn't seem to work as well as other ones So you see how hard and how long I've been pushing this on so we will see if this peels up A lot of shacking Actually does I was thinking it wasn't gonna pull it up, but pull up the vinyl with it I will admit it is very pretty, but I do not like the vinyl. So here it is best mom ever So it's just like this It was very easy to put together took but a couple minutes to cut this out And this would make a great gift for you know a mom a grandma a friend You know anything but Mother's Day is coming right around the corner So I thought this was a really neat idea. So again the back is just the white so you don't have to do anything to this So I thought that was pretty neat So you just need like a dollar store stand and then you can just put it up just like this So I'm gonna show you one more because this next one is actually two pieces. So we have to layer this So this is two pieces. We have the best ever and then the grandma part here So we have to layer this so the first part you want to do is grab the best ever And then you want to layer it on top of the grandma one So I'm gonna take the same piece of transfer tape and then just do oops Just do the same thing and I'm gonna use that grid lines on here as well And kind of line it up And now I'm gonna work even harder with this and we're gonna see if it sticks any better But I'm really gonna I'm pushing hard on this and let go for a few times I'll try this side as well We'll see if that doesn't mean better And again, I like to flip it upside down and then Work up sit down to make sure everything comes off. Okay, that time it came off a little bit better So then I want to take the other piece and Line this up with that one So there's little lines in here that you can see right there. So you want to line it up with those pieces there so I'm gonna take my time and Put them in the middle So there so one thing I should have done is actually moved the middle part up down a little bit further Because my transfer tape did not quite hit all the way at the top So I'm gonna do the same thing and just use my squeegee and push really hard to get these both together Oops, I missed up my part here because they don't have The top part so if you make a mistake like that, you don't get it all the way at the top You can always use another piece of transfer tape Which I think I might do and actually go over the top of it. So you guys know me. I'm always honest I made a mistake. I didn't go up high enough So I'm just using another piece of transfer tape and I'm going to write over that So now I got the whole top part here done. So I was gonna take my squeegee You can get the bubbles out and then push really hard so it all sticks together So hopefully that makes sense. So now I'm just gonna peel off my transfer tape and then again Peel off the backing Here we go So here's the other one. I like to see where the tag is on the back I'm gonna trim the lower right hand of that So now I'm gonna do the same thing. I'm sorry about the light. I have a light above I'm in my kitchen. So I have a light above me. So it's kind of glaring off of there. I'm sorry about that and Now just doing the same thing as before you just want to layer this on But make sure that you have enough on each side and then you can use your grip paper as kind of a guide To see where to put it. So my grid is a little bit off I don't know if you can tell I didn't do the best job making it straight. So I have to kind of eyeball it here I'm not going off of my grid. I'm going off of The actual file itself So I'm trying to find the center part and then I'm trying to give enough on both sides and Then also at the top so I'm kind of gauging up here We're how far and then on each side here on how far I'm going over so it looks pretty good the way it is now So I'm just gonna take my squeegee and then go over it again Because I really like this site so it won't break anything And then just rub really well Have you guys done these tiles before this is my first time and I really love the way they look And my craft beer last week. I saw somebody selling these but it was outrageous I think they were selling for like $25 for exactly this and no stand no nothing's I was really surprised at that So I'm just gonna gently peel back my transfer tape. All right guys. I am finished. I am throwing this transfer tape out Normally I like to reuse it, but no I am done. I do not like the transfer tape and I definitely do not like The cricket vinyl have you guys used the cricket brand before leave it in the comments below I would love to hear from you guys. So I am not really happy with this at all. It's got some Bubbles in it which I've never had before so the way I get my both bubbles out is I actually take a hairdryer on low And I go over it and then I take my squeegee and I just push on it And that just gradually brings the bubbles out Otherwise people have been telling me that they use pins and they stick it in there, but I've never done that I'm always afraid that it's gonna leave like a little pinhole in it that you're gonna see So I just work with it to try to get all the bubbles out. So I got them out suffer one little one in there But here is what it looks like I really love how this turned out except for like I said the vinyl wasn't sticking very well And the transfer tape was giving me a hard time, but this is what it looks like. I think it's beautiful I'm just gonna get a little stand for it, you know from the dollar store and Put it on a stand and see if I can sell that the two stores that I'm in I'm gonna put it on my website I create crafts if anybody's interested in it. I love how this turned out I'll show you what they all look like when they're all done and on some stands You can kind of see what I'm talking about But here it is give me a thumbs up if you liked this video and hit that subscribe button share with your friends All right guys, here's how they turned out. What do you guys think? I love how these turned out They were very inexpensive and a lot of fun to create actually except for the Cricut brand vinyl I don't know. Please leave it in the comments below. Do you use Cricut brand? But anyways back to this so I'm gonna be putting these into the two stores that I'm in currently selling in right now And a little bit later this summer. I'm going to be doing I'm going to be branching out and going to different stores and seeing If I can sell anything in there So if you guys are crafters and you love what you do and you want to make a little bit of money This would be a perfect opportunity You take your stuff you go to store or a little boutique or a consignment shop And you ask them if they want to buy stuff directly from you or if you can put it on consignment That's what I did and I'm in two shops. If you're interested in more in this I have an e-book for sale go check that out I would love for you guys to check it out and let me know but Overall, I'm pretty happy with this. Happy Mother's Day everybody Leave me a thumbs up if you like this and hit that subscribe button if you haven't already
