Please be my Bridesmaid!

Alrighty, at the risk of offending someone, here goes!  I have a friend who's getting married and she asked me to make some vinyl for her so that she could ask her bridesmaids to support her in a very special way.  So, we found this idea on pinterest and I printed it up.  You could put this on a wine bottle, but she bought Fireball for her girls!  These girls know how to live it up!  Anyhow, they turned out pretty dang cool.

Angry birds T-Shirt for Ethan

Ok, this post is a T-Shirt I made for my grandson.  It's a little naughty, so he can't wear it to pre-school.  But I like it.  He is completely infatuated with angry birds!  I made it with my eclips, using SCAL!

CAbi Gift box

My step-mom sells CAbi and she gets these great little gift boxes once in a while and she was going to just throw them out! Can you believe that?!?   Well I wasn't having any of that!  I took those boxes and transformed them into a great gift box that she can give to her special hostesses. I used the Artiste Cartridge from Cricut.  I LOVE this cartridge.  There is so many great cuts on it.  And I added some bling to it, so now I can enter it in the Fabulous Cricut contest this week!  The best part is that I filled the little pouch inside with a perfume sample that I ordered on ebay.  I got ten little Lacoste Pink perfume samples for $4.99!  You can't beat that and it smells fabulous.  I've been sniffing myself all night!


Countdown to the Holidays Small Boards

I have posted these boards before in the large side.  But I had some of my friends that don't have the wall space ask for the smaller version.  So, I busted it out and designed the smaller boards.  Here they are in a 12 X 20 inch size:

Decorating above the cupboards in the kitchen




I found some old frames in the back of my closet and decided to change things up a bit above the cupboards in my kitchen.  I read on line that the rule was: if you don't have more then 2 feet between your cupboards and the ceiling that you're supposed to leave that space empty, but it didn't look right.  So I added a little something to add some color to my very drab kitchen.
I emptied the frames of their original pictures and on the wall I put some pears that I cut from the preserves cricut cartridge, then I put the frame over the top of it and put the word, "EAT" onto the glass frame and voila!  For the drink frame, it was the same process and I got the svg file for the bottles on a web site I found through a google search.
The frame above the fridge I got at the dollar store and cut the silverware with my Eclips machine.

Baby onsies using my Eclips

I made these little onsies for a baby shower for a friend.  I found the onsies with the pictures embroidered on them and then added my own special touch with the words, using my Eclips machine, some heat transfer vinyl and a True Type font.  Mommy to be was pleased.

Normal Family T Shirt

Okay, if you're having a hard time seeing this, it says"If you met my family, you would understand".  Since my teen girls won't wear anything I make (they're to COOL), then I decided to make one for one of their friends. It turned out pretty good, if you don't look too closely.  I accidentally got the vinyl on there a little crooked.  Crud I hate it when that happens!
