I have decided to feature using Cricut to create shirt designs.  My first one I designed a onsie for a friend of mine as a baby gift.   I used Create a Critter cartridge to make the monkey and I also cut the monkey out of paper to use as a matching card. These really do make great homemade gifts! Her oldest loved it so much he wanted me to make him one too.

So for that T-Shirt I used the Turtle from Walk in my Garden Cricut Cartridge.  I also used a  s-e-i iron on art camo sheet. These sheets are great because they already have the iron on material on the fabric.  It was super easy to make this!  I also used the pattern to make him a tag for his scrapbook. He loved it!  I just love to make homemade gifts with my Cricut! Hope you liked my project!

My Cricut Craft Room Scrapbook Friday--Father/Son

Wow here it is another Friday, where did the week go??  Seems like the summer will be gone before you know it! 

Today's theme for Scrapbook Friday that I chose was Father.  I made a scrapbook page for my husband.  Every year he celebrates Father's Day and his birthday.  It either falls on his birthday or a day or two before it.  I have decided I need to start adding my husband and myself to more of our children's scrapbooks!

I used Cricut Holiday Cakes cartridge to cut the "Happy Father's Day" saying.  I used the Martha Stewart's Seasonal Cake Art cartridge to cut the border.  I also stamped on the thin navy blue strip with white ink and a Stampin Up stamp.  I like to leave room for a few pictures.  I tend to at least use 3-4 pictures on a page.

                   Happy Friday!! Have a great weekend and Happy Father's Day to all the Dad's!
