Justin Bieber Picture Frame and Glass Block

As you all know, my niece absolutely loves Justin Bieber.  Her birthday is on Wednesday, so I thought I would make her a few things to go along with her present.  I found this svg file of Justin on the Sure Cuts a Lot forum on Craft Edge.  I ended up using purple as my other color on this, because my sister informed me that purple was his favorite color.  (Apparently Kaylee knows all of her JB facts, lol)

For the frame, I used the cut file and the font Ariel Narrow.  I painted the frame white and then added my vinyl cuts.
Here is the glass block that I made her.  I put Justin on the front and then used the Ariel Font to put Bieber Fever on the back of the block.

I started out with a mini glass block from Hobby Lobby (the $9.99 ones) and added my vinyl onto the front and back.

Then, to fill the block, I used table scatter from the Target $1 area.  They are little purple hearts.  I ended up buying four packs of these and it only took two, so I have plenty of these hearts left to do something with.  After the block was filled, I added my ribbon and tied a bow at the top.

Ooooooohmygod!!! Jean, she is just going to love this!!!

The picture file cut so well, is it an SVG file? I've had trouble cutting SVG picture files for some reason.

Jean said...

Yep Audrey, it is an svg. It was a little difficult to cut and get all of the little pieces weeded out.

Jean, this is wonderful! My 6 year old walked up behind me as I was pulling up your post and I think I may now be deaf in the one ear she shrieked "JUSTIN BIEBER" into. She has completely succumbed to Bieber Fever. What would you charge me (with postage of course) to cut Justin and the phrase out of vinyl? I don't own a program that I can do SVG files with. Let me know -- her birthday is April 2 and this would be the PERFECT gift!

Thanks!
