Princessaurus Shirt

Hi all!

Today I am sharing a t-shirt I made for my cousin's daughter. She loves dinosaurs and its not too easy to find girly dinosaur shirts.

I cut this cute dino from Create a Critter at about 5 inches. I used two different colored pink heat transfer vinyl and layered the pieces. I did use my Gypsy to hide a few contours on two of the layers.

The font is from Nursery Rhymes, its 1.25 inches. I really like it and use it a lot for my girly font. I used Glitter heat transfer vinyl for the hat as well as the font. Normally I would lay out the letters exactly how I want them to be on the shirt and then cut it that way, however, I didn't want there to be too much waste with the glitter vinyl, so I cut them separately and ironed them on one at a time.

The hat was cut from Once Upon a Princess. I sized it up on my Gypsy to fit the dino's head.

After I ironed on all my vinyl, I took a few thin strips of glittery tulle and sewed them to the tip of the hat. I added a few heat set gems to the hat as well.

I am quite pleased with how well it turned out. It is the first time I ever made a shirt with this type of vinyl layering. I am eager to try more vinyl designs on clothing.

Thanks for visiting today!

Have a Great and Crafty Day!

Abc Book 1 - Pic HEAVY

Here is an ABC book I made for my niece. It is such a picture heavy project that I split the posting up into two parts. I used many, many cartridges for this project. And it is a very simple pages, the cuts are arranged so I could label everything. I will list each cartridge used on the page under each picture, except for the letters used on each page were from the Mickey and Pooh Font Cartridges. I couldn't label every cartridge used! LOL

After I completed making all the pages, I then laminated them and used the Your Story to bind them into a book. I took pictures of the pages before they were laminated. The lamination wasn't the best on the pages, as there were so many layers and levels to the surface of the page, but since this was a book for a one year old, I wanted it to hold up to a kids love. For the cover, I adhered my cut with ModPodge and then went over the cuts again, sealing them on to the cover. That has held up quite well.

Cartridge Challenge - Week 7

Hello All! It's time to announce the cartridges for the weekly challenge.

This weeks picks are:
Create a Critter
I used this cartridge quite a bit in an ABC book I made for my Niece for Christmas this past year. There are so many cute animals on this cartridge, as well as other cute images and accessories for the animals. When this cartridge first cam out, everyone was raving about it, and honestly I couldn't really see what the big deal was. Now that I have it,m I can say that I am a big fan of the way the layers are done on this cartridge. Instead of having tons of little pieces to put on the images, some of the layer are made by using negative cuts, and that make assebly SO MUCH easier. It also gives the final pieces a bit of heft to them because of so many layers. Here is the posts for that ABC book: Part 1 and Part 2

Forever Young
I love the silhouettes on this cartridge. Also, this cartridge has quite a few 3D purses on it. I love making the 3D cuts, and who doesn't love PURSES?

Sweet Tweets Valentine's Day Treat Bouquet

Here is a Valentine's Day Treat I made. I have bought these clear bags from my Stampin' Up consultant quite a while ago and have been waiting to use them.


I needed to use the Songbird cartridge as part of my own cartridge challenge, so I chose the frame cut from page 62. I cut two and sized them in order to have a shadow layer. I then used my gypsy and the word tweet on page 69 and welded an s to the end I then cut that image twice. I also used a capital S and just cut off the t and s for in order to spell Sweet. The adorable little bird is from Create a Critter on page 65. I flipped the image in my Gypsy before cutting it. I also cut the little flower for her head twice for and extra layer, and used a stylus to give it some shape. I added a gem to the cneter for some sparkle.

The flowers were made using a 2.5" scallped circle punch. The rosettes were made with 1" strips of heart print paper I found in the dollar bin at Target. I used my Martha Stewart Scoreboard to make the rosette. I hot glued a small heart punched from a Creative Memories punch to the center of the rosette. I stapled the scalloped circle to the top of the clear bag, and then glued the rosette to the circle.

The clear bags can be found at www.ClearBags.com
The ones I used are 1" by 8" with a flap seal.

Have a Great Day!
