Bunco Fun

My sister lives in a great little subdivision which includes all sorts of social events.  Once a month the "Bunco Babes" get together at someone's house and spend the evening playing bunco (with plenty of eating, drinking and socializing thrown in).  For the holidays they planned a wine glass exchange, so my sister called to see what I could do for her.  Once again, I turned to my Cricut and got to cutting some vinyl.  The dice are an SVG that I designed using SCAL2.  After cutting the shadow and individual die, I layered them and applied them to a glass.  The words were done the same way, using the AR Christy font, again cut with SCAL2.  I added a few of the dots left from inside the die, tied on a ribbon and it was good to go. 

I always worry that when I'm left to design something myself,  it won't be quite right.  I'm happy to say that wasn't the case with the glass...I just finished making 15 22 more for the girls that didn't win the glass in the gift exchange.  Here's a picture of a few that were requested.

I'm waiting now for a supply of insulated acrylic tumblers like these

to arrive so I can do some personalization on them as well.  I think they'll be great for those cool summer beverages that we'll be drinking soon...if the warm weather ever finds its' way here.

  2. What a fun idea. I just got a curicut and am going to have to try cutting some of the SU vinyl and the chalk board paper. Thank you for the idea. I found you through Momo. Isn't this a wonderful and sweet thing she is doing for us.
