I'm collecting sources for Subway Art, can you help add to the list?
I love Craftily Ever After! She makes a few new ones each season.

Just out of curiosity, why do they call it subway art?

Vinyl crafters pegged it "subway art", most famous is the Keep Calm signs from the UK.... the first "subway art", and now it means Word Art...

Here's another good source

Never heard that expression? Is that a UK thing? I think most Americans (or anyone from a metro area) thinks of subway art as graffiti.

I think if I had a Cricut or something like that, it would be so easy to do this...using vinyl would be cool!!
