The wedding card box was a simple task and it is where we began the wedding crafting. The box is a terrarium from Ikea called Socker. The terrarium comes in white so we spray painted it gold using Rust Oleum Metallic Gold (1910830). The terrarium can be easily taken apart and the glass removed. This definitely makes it easier for spray painting. I measured the box and used the measurements in Cricut Design Space to adjust the font. One of the most critical parts of any project, in my opinion, is choosing the font. I can easily spend hours testing and trying fonts.
This was the first time I would use transfer tape. I can not believe I did not know about the existence of transfer tape. I did the mug project by manually pulling the words off and then having to form the letters and words. It was frustrating and time consuming and now I can definitely laugh about it! Being that, this was the first project using the tape I decided to print the writing and cut and place it on the box before moving to the vinyl. This was just to ensure that sizing was perfect.
After cutting the letters and weeding the extra vinyl, I was able to use the transfer tape to lift and place the letters on the glass.
