Great new Sponsor, a Giveaway, and 2 winners!!

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!giveaway closed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love finding a great supplier.
One with a stocked inventory…….and really low prices.
And it’s only best to share with everyone else.
I have mentioned this company before, but today we’re diving into to their shop.  Because, you’ll love what’s available to you, I’m sure of it.

Expressions Vinyl  is an independent seller, not tied to any craft cutter brand……..therefore, making it possible to offer great crafting vinyl at really low prices.  They purchase high quality Oracal Vinyl, which is the same exact vinyl that the Cricut company sells with their cutter…..but in many more shapes and sizes.  Okay, and for a great price.
Vinyl (with an adhesive backing) is great for scrapbooking, for home decor, and for other crafting projects.  (Remember my vinyl projects here, here and here?) And you know, if you don’t have a craft cutter, then print out the images you want on the computer, trace around the images onto the vinyl with an exacto knife, and you can use vinyl too.  Perfect.
But what’s great about Expressions Vinyl, is that if you just need a bit of vinyl for a smaller project, no problem, they carry small sheets of vinyl.  Find selections here.

 But, they also carry large rolls, with plenty of vinyl for those bigger projects.  You will never run out of your vinyl.  Click here to view the larger rolls.

One last thing I have to mention…..because I love this stuff, is the heat transfer vinyl.  

Or Tshirt Vinyl.  
Or iron-on vinyl.  
Whatever name you recognize.  
Remember my post here, where I used vinyl on my kid’s clothing?  Yes, great project.  And so much fun.  Well, Expressions Vinyl recently started carrying this type of vinyl at a fraction of the cost.  I’m off to place a new order, so that I can personalize more of our clothing.  Love it.

And if you’re having trouble using your vinyl, or understanding how it all works, there is a whole library of videos that you can watch, which demonstrate how to create different vinyl projects.  And it may just give you that new idea you’ve been looking for as well.  Click here for all videos.  
(Just click on any of the grey shaded titles and a video for that topic will pop up.)

 

Isn’t this a treasure trove of great crafting vinyl?  

I have actually had a great experience with Expressions Vinyl, fantastic customer service, and very quick shipping.  I couldn’t have been happier with their service……..okay, and their incredible prices.  Whew, I can’t get over the deals they offer.  (And that was my genuine experience with them……..I was not asked to mention it.)

And yes, Expressions Vinyl is offering a giveaway to one of you, so that you can get started right away on your next vinyl project.  They are giving away 2 separate $25 gift certificates, good towards anything in their shop.  
Fabulous.  
2 winners will be very happy!
