Plastic Easter Egg Crafts



Here are few little things that you can create with your little one using up all of those plastic easter eggs after they have been emptied of the treasures. Some of the ideas were from a book and others where from other familyfun.com. I have done some of these with toddlers and brownie girl scouts.

Easter Tiles with Vinyl



I forgot how much I enjoy using vinyl. Here are couple of items I did for Spring or Easter, and just plain cause I love rabbits, heeheehee...

The white tile has a light gray marble in it, I could not find a pure white big tile. The tile is 12x12.

The black tile is 4x4. I was orginally thinking of putting magnets on the back but I think they are still a little too heavy for that. I also don't really like the white edges so I am going to paint marker them in gold or black, not real sure just yet and then picture hangers on the back.

Baby Onesies






Okay, so I in love with these smart ass sayings on the baby onsies. I also have become slightly addicted to vinyl and heat transfer vinyl. AND what a great time to discover this addiction with a brand new nephew and niece added to my loving family. I am very VERY new at trying the heat vinyl and learned some important things along the way... such as you have to FLIP and type in your saying in backwards in order for it to come out right if you are not using SCAL, MTC or Design Studio. Anyways, enough blabbering...on to the pictures...

Baby Shower Invitations


I have found a really cute baby invitation that I wanted to make for my two sister in laws baby showers this spring. I wanted to share it with you because I personally think they are adorable. I cut it with Sure Cuts Alot 2.

Altered Notebook (well, just the front)



I helped my mother in law make this to for a wedding shower. I think it is cute and quite addictive to make. Who doesn't like a personalized notebook and ribbon?

Cricut cutting Fondant


I used the cricut to cut hello kitty out of fondant. I have heard of ladies doing this on cricut boards so I just had to try it. Ladies advised to put gum-tex with the fondant to help it dry so that is what I did. I set my machine on slow speed and low pressure with my blade at a 6. It cut pretty good. What do you think?

Hello Kitty Greetings Cricut




I have cut a few images for Jody's birthday. The group of 3 was cut at 4 3/4" and the hello kitty balloons and cake were both cut at 11 1/2". I like to use some sort of embellishments for the bows or small areas. I used brads today. When I cut her I always use a piece of yellow to layer behind the spot for her nose. I just don't like the little dot that is suppose to be used.
