3 day Weekend = Craft Weekend!

I got so many projects done this weekend! It all started with my mom’s birthday on Saturday. I started editing pictures of our horses and making them into cuttable files. I made two shirts with our horse Fool’r on them and then one with Juliana. Here is the pic I used for each file:

               


I made a shirt for my mom with Fool’r in gold metallic vinyl and then a shirt for Etta with Fool’r made of red vinyl. They turned out beautifully. I then made my dad his father’s day present, which I also failed to take a picture of, but I am quite proud of the design and tag line on it. If I get a chance I will take a picture.

Next, I finally made the shirts for Sarah’s daughters. I failed to photograph them, too. But I made two zebras and two giraffes, one in white and the other in metallic rose gold. I was really impressed with how they turned out!

Okay, now this next project I ended up getting a last minute picture from in the car! A former riding student of mine had a baby shower so I made a diaper cake for her. It is made up of dark brown burlap and two sheer peach colored ribbons. I like how it turned out, but of course it looks lopsided here due to the seat.

Lastly, tonight, I went back to the cricut machine and finished the labels on my bathroom organizer. I have three small plastic organizers with three drawers each that I have in the bathroom separating pain killers, prescription drugs, moisturizers, cold and flu, immunity supplements and digestive aids. I bought the first two organizers at the same time and labeled them immediately, so when I bought the third I wasn’t motivated enough to label them until today...so- CHECK that off the list!

And then finally, in the end, I cut the Juliana file in the rose gold metallic and put it on a nice, bold magenta short sleeved shirt. Here it is!

I love my Cricut!

So my newly-turned 3 year old has become obsessed with the characters from the movie Madagascar. Her Nana gave her some beanie babies that she takes everywhere, one is a zebra named Marty and the other is a lion named Alex. Then she found that we had a giraffe and a hippo around the house so they have joined the crew. Depending on the day it’s either Marty and Alex or Marty and Melman (the giraffe) that need to go everywhere we go. Lately it’s very Marty and Melman-centric so I decided to make some cool t-shirts.

Here is what she got...
