Laceylp 1 Posted November 7, 2008 I know what your saying...I bought 80 black plates off ebay....then could not figure out how to cut a zebra style out of the vinyl to make it! LOL I'm out lots and have 78 plates left to play on! LOL Maybe someone can help us! Thanks! Lacey Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
katiebug 0 Posted November 8, 2008 I have a zebra design I just finished doing if you would like to have it. Just finished doing a black tag with it and it is so cute. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Laceylp 1 Posted November 8, 2008 I would love it to try. I'm not perfect yet but getting better. I have done my first door! It was mine but I loved it! LOL Lacey Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
katiebug 0 Posted November 9, 2008 I am not at work today,but I will post it for you when I go in tomorrow. The design is endless on what you can do with it. Tags,tshirts,travel mugs,trash cans,tissue boxes,pic frames and i could go on and on.Change up the colors and do hot pink or lime green zebra stipes. You can do the polka dots the same way. Now just need to find time to do it all.lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Laceylp 1 Posted November 9, 2008 Time....we can never have enough. I have two kids under two and am trying to start a business....Wish I could buy some or barter for it! LOL Thank you so much! Lacey Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

katiebug 0 Posted November 11, 2008 Your welcome, another idea is a maibox with red letters on it. I think I have zebraitis.lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Laceylp 1 Posted November 11, 2008 I love all animal prints now! LOL I bought a really cute giraffe print for daughter. I think I may have animalitis...but my fav now is giraffe. Wish we could find that as well. LOL I have a question for you...when doing other things like mugs, etc would you use the same vinyl as you use for your banners? Do you have to do something special to seal it? Just curious because I have only done two plates as practice plates and not used them at all! LOL Thanks, Lacey PS is this the size of a license plate or do I need to figure out how to make a template? I have not yet looked! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
katiebug 0 Posted November 12, 2008 This is the size I made a tag with. You can enlarge or shrink to the size you need once you get it in sb Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cortney03 0 Posted December 1, 2008 hey guys.. havent been on in a while.. these have been really popular for me.. taking a dry erase board, divide it up with a piece of wood... then personalize it with the zebra stripes or polka dots and then putting a name on them. They are so flipping cute.. you can also do this with the divided dry erase/cork board. Some other ideas that are cute are taking plastic cake plates and putting polka dots and then the customers last name on them (then apply a sealant) coffee mugs, wall hangings, cookie jars (great ideas for teachers and fill with candy) i've even done some stuff with glass etching.. really really neat with the zebra on a plate!!
