I decided to use this pattern to do the painted horse. The color of this vinyl just spoke "western" to me.
I did learn on this one that sealer does not work on vinyl !! It leaves a sticky substance and every lint that touches it will stick to it ! I am working on a way to correct this ! Hope you enjoy this one ! Will hopefully have all the kinks worked out if I keep experimenting ! Maybe those of you who want to purchase the pattern and try your own will know what to try or not try . Of course if you are working on cotton or canvas you will not have this problem at all .
Has anyone else painted on vinyl ? I would appreciate,( and I'm sure other crafters would ) any suggestions you can give us on this !
You all have a blessed day ! Until next time,

The lastest purse I have designed ! I wanted to do a color wash on this and then paint a design. I am using vinyl and didn't know how the colors would do on this. I know on Leather they would sink into the leather, but on vinyl ?? Nothing to sink in to !! So , I am "test driving" (LOL) this purse myself ! Well that is an excuse to get a new purse, isn't it? I tried a leather dye, but it didn't go on right, so I have used fabric paints.
We will see how this holds up. I have painted on canvas and other fabric and these do very well. I have a special fabric paint I use, and you can order these from me, also the pattern for this purse can be purchased. I have more ideas for this pattern, I will post later ! Let me know what you think ! Do you like the design?
Back of purse. Three pockets here, 8 pockets on the inside.
Side view. Side unsnaps to allow for more room in needed when placing items in purse .
