 I am so very excited! Summer for us this year is a new baby in the family!!

My brother and his wife have a new addition to their family.  A baby Girl!  She was born last Sunday!  They did not find out the sex of the baby until she was born... So I had to make my present after she was born. I bought the onsies while my sister in law was pregnant and tried to get colors that could be used for either sex.  I have a new heat press and I love it so much!  Most of my projects lately have been t-shirt related!   Today's project is also along those lines.

                        I created some onsies for my sweet niece. 

My brother and sister in law live in Husker territory so I had to make a football related design. (this pattern I had gotten off of one of my fb groups I did not invent it I just used the pattern.) I love how it turned out!

The next one I made was a design off of the Silhouette website.  It is the cutest little bear! I did hand cut her bow and smile because I thought it needed a girly touch to it.

The last design I had also gotten from one of my fb groups.  I think this one is my favorite.  The necklace with her initial.  I think this design is so pretty!!

                                 Here is a picture of all three designs:

Our Kreative Karma Blog Post Tuesday April 23rd

Hello everyone! I feel a weight has lifted! We made it through PROM!---

My Daughter had Prom over the weekend, and she had a great time. I am so relieved that we made it through it! I felt a little stressed! Finding the right dress, shoes, & accessories. Making sure the hair was perfect! It all turned out in the end!

It is a sure sign that spring is here when it is Prom season. (even if the weather doesn't cooperate!)

Then summer is right around the corner!!

For my project today I made this cute purse which hold tic tacs. They are such a cute gift!

I used a pattern that I had gotten from Creative Kuts: http://creativekuts.com/Tic-Tac-Candy-Purses-TT11513.htm   

Please visit the Kreative Karma blog to see other fantastic projects by our very creative team!

Thank you for visiting my blog today!  Here are the pictures of the tic tac purse.  Have a great day!

 Hope if it was Prom weekend for you that everything went smoothly!

Monday April 14th Posting for Our Kreative Karma Blog

Happy Monday to everyone! I cannot believe how fast the weekend went! My oldest son is in culinary school and over the weekend he had a Gourmet Dinner event. It was fantastic!! Soon the kids will be out of school! My youngest is getting spring fever! Wanting to ride his bike outside and to color with sidewalk chalk.

I have been in a little creative slump! I think I too have spring fever and just want to get outside! I cannot seem to concentrate on my crafting!

For today's post I am going to share something I made awhile ago. I have such a difficult time making manly crafts! I had a co-worker request some decorative envelopes for gifts. One of which was for her son, the other two were for her daughters. Now while I had no problem creating the ones for the girls I found the one for the son a little more of a challenge. I asked her what each child (these were for grown children) interests were and went from there.

I used my cameo to find the designs that I liked then imported them the the Silhouette Studio and traced them and added my cut lines. On the manly one and the Eiffel Tower I used the cracked glass and let it dry. I used washi tape and ink on the star one.

                         Here is the (what I call) gift-a-lope I made for her son:

                                            Here are the gift-a-lope's that I made for her girls:

                      I hope you will visit Our Kreative Karma blog to see other great projects!

Sunshine, Smiles, & Summer Posting for Our Kreative Karma

Our theme this month for Our Kreative Karma is Sunshine, Smiles, & Summer!

I am so ready for some nice weather! I can't wait to get out into my flower beds and get them cleaned up!

I am really excited about today's post. I have been on a kick to use HTV (heat transfer vinyl). I have made quite a few shirts.

I made this one for my son who is in love with snails right now. I saved a coloring page to my computer then opened it up in my Silhouette program. Enlarged it, added cut lines and cut my vinyl. It was so easy! I used my heat press to adhere it to the shirt. He loved it!

I am going to try layering different colors next! Here is a picture of my project:

Thanks for stopping by!!                     ~~~Christina~~~ 

Our Kreative Karma---Saturday March 23rd

Hi everyone!  I know it has been awhile since I have posted! Lots of things happening at our house and I have had to take a little break.. I'm hoping to get back on track in the next couple of months!

Today I am posting for Our Kreative Karma.  We have such a wonderful group!  No stress, lots of fun!

The Easter Bunny has been working on some projects for next weekend.  I can hardly believe the Easter is next Sunday!!

I started with some large Easter Eggs that I purchased from Target.  I then used my cameo to design the kids' names and the polka dots that I cut out of vinyl.  Here is an example of one of the eggs that was made:

These were so fun to make.  I think that even the teenagers will like them!  Thank you for
stopping by my blog!  Hope you have a great day!!

Our Kreative Karma Design Team Blog Post Feb.23rd

Hello everyone!  I know it has been awhile since I have posted anything.  I have had a lot happening in my life.  I had a death of a family member. I was admitted to the hospital 2 weeks ago and had to have surgery.  I am on the mend and trying to get back into the swing of things!

Today's post is about LOVE.  Well I LOVE all my friends and family! I love to make gifts for the people in my life. So I created this gift for one of my friends whom I love for her Birthday!

I bought reusable soap dispensers from Target.  I then cut various butterfly shapes from vinyl and my Cricut. I used this snow like 3-D stuff to create the clouds. I also made a tag for her gift.

Thanks for stopping by! I promise to have more postings soon!  Here is a picture of the gift:

                                                   

 

 

I hope you come back to our blog and see all the great projects the team members have made through out the month!  http://ourkreativekarma.blogspot.com

Creative Kuts Design Team Post: Tea riffic Package

Happy Monday!  I have a great file that I want to share with you from the Creative Kuts Website.

It is the Tea riffic Package.  You can find it here:  http://www.creativekuts.com/Tea-riffic-Package-TR0113.htm

I used the Digi stamp to create an invitation.  Using the cut and print feature on my Silhouette Cameo I colored the digi stamp and cut it out.  I cut an extra tea pot so I could make it stand out.
I used the file to also make a treat bag.  I cut out the girl server, and the Title.  Once again using the print and cut feature I cut out the serving tray,cupcakes,and tea pot.  I thought it would make a great party favor to go with the party invitation I created.
