Birthday card, Tshirt & Badge

I made this card, badge, and T-shirt for my Mother-in-law's birthday.  I matched the card with the badge using The Paper Studio Terrace Bloom cardstock. The card file is from the Silhouette Store, #286139. It's called a Wiper Card. I enlarged it to 8 x 8 because I like big cards and it was being hand-delivered. It's a quick and fun card to make.

Atlanta Falcons!!! Rise Up!!!

I couldn't find a shirt I liked so I had to make one. It's simple, but I like it. It goes with my blinged out Atlanta Falcons shoes (see below) #AtlantaFalcons #RiseUp

Superbowl Baby!!!

Sweet 16 T-shirts

I made these two shirts back in April (forgot to post) for these young ladies, both celebrating their Sweet Sixteen birthdays.. The one in the red is my "niece" (my friend's daughter) that I have known since she was a toddler.

 Here's the back view. I think they liked them!

Have a great day and thanks for stopping by!

Graduation gifts and cards!

Finally all my babies have completed their graduation ceremonies so now I can post pics of their gifts! I'm so proud of these awesome kids!

These are the monogrammed t-shirts I made using the "knock-out" method with my Cameo. Be sure to check out the Subway Graduation Cards at the bottom!

I used glitter HTV for both shirts. It has been said not to layer glitter on glitter so the knock-out method  works best to give you that layer on layer look. Oh. and I did not follow the standard monogram rules because I did not like the way they looked. (Who says I have to follow the rules?)

 You can find the link to one of the videos I watched by clicking on the lime green knock-out.

Here's some close-up shots. You can see (or maybe not, if I did a good job, lol) that the names are sitting "inside" the black and red glitter, not on top. 

 Love the Rainbow glitter!

I made these subway art cards from a file that I got in one of the Silhouette Facebook groups. I changed the names, colors and the year. I was trying to match each card to their school colors but it didn't quite work out that way. 

I had to mail two of the gifts (along with checks, lol) but the one that was delivered local was packed inside this gift bag that I got from Michaels. The designs is from the Silhouette Store. I added the 2015.

Thanks for stopping by!

Thank you cards and Matching T-shirts

Whew!!! This was a huge project (for me anyway) for my daughter's travel group. They took 42 of their clients on a cruise and wanted something "special", as she put it, to give to them. 

It wasn't so much that it was 42 Thank You cards and 7 T-shirts, it was the fact that it was a time limit. A last minute time limit at that! lol

It got done and she helped out a lot on the cards. I think she finally realizes what goes into making things by hand. In the end, I think everything turned out okay, considering the rush.

Everything was designed and cut with my #Silhouette Cameo. 

This is the card for their clients. 

 Inside of card. It looks blue here but it is actually Teal.

 Here are the matching T-shirts. The Vinyl is Teal except for the palm tree which is glitter black. Each shirt was personalized with their names.

 You know I had to have some bling somewhere!! lol

 Here's my daughter with her boyfriend in the shirts. She said they were so busy they forgot to take a group photo of them wearing their T-shirts. I'm not happy about that, but oh well, this will do!

Here she is learning to "cut and paste" lol!!

 Getting the hang of that ATG gun!

I'm so proud of my daughter and all the members of the #Talented Tenth Travel Group. They are passionate about their work and are doing a fantastic job. There were no complaints about their excursion, in fact many of the clients can't wait to travel with them again and they picked up a few new ones! This is their "side" job. They all have full time jobs! It's refreshing to see young people go after their dreams and work so hard to obtain it.  I wish them much success in the future!

Crop T-shirt

Here's another crop T-shirt I made with the Silhouette software and my heat press. I think it might just be my favorite.

Circle Mania, Crop T-shirt and Calling Card

Hello everyone!!

This month has and is going to be just crazy for me. I have a crop every weekend up until Thanksgiving and even one after that. Whew!!! There was not much crafty time for me to come up with projects other than what I did for the crops, so I'll share them with you.

I attended a crop last weekend at a friends house where I was able to get 30 card bases ready for Operation Write Home, (OWH) cards for soldiers. This may not sound like much, but those who know me now I never do ANYTHING at crops other than socialize!!!

This weekend I am attending a 3 day crop called Circle Mania. It's a huge semi annual event hosted by Paulette Trent (Scrapalette) in Alpharetta, Ga.  Crafters from all over attend. Provo Craft(the makers of Cricut/Cuttlebug) came last year bearing gifts and is schedule to attend this year as well. They are providing us with lunch on Saturday and bringing a special guest!!!  I can't wait to see who it is!!  We always have a lot of fun and leave with a lot of gifts and crop bags!!!  I will post more pictures throughout the coming weeks. Also, the Maniacs always turn in cards for OWH. Our goal is 1000 cards, so far I have 70 made!

Be sure to click on the links to get more information about the events I mentioned above. OWH is great for those you who like to make cards and it serves a great purpose. Check out the link.

Okay, lets start with the calling card. It is a 3"x3" trading card for crafters. It usually has a theme, and you make a card for however many are attending the crop, in this case 50. Here's mine for mania:

I use the Crafty Girl Stamp, scaned it into my Silhouette software (ya, I know, not Cricut) and colored it. Normally I would use my Copics, but this was 50 cards!!! The actual size of the girl is 2.50 inches!!! I also did the Chevron background with my software.

Here's a close up shot.

I put my name on the craft bag and I made my Cuttlebug the new Anna Griffin one! See all the supplies in the bag??

 

I try to make a gift for each Mania event I attend.  This time I made a charger. It's not clear whether or not this will be a give-away or a hostess gift. So far none of my gifts have made it to give-ways!!!  lol.

 

 

I also made "me" a matching T-shirt with my heat press.

Here's both together

Here's the back of the shirt

Thanks for looking and be sure to check back soon as I will be posting more pictures from Mania and my other upcoming crops.
