Holiday cards

started!
Finally I'm on the way to getting my holiday cards finished. Fifteen done and many more to go.

I made five of, each of the Three cards.




These were cut out using my Cricut and the designs are from Cricut Design Space.

I added another finished set of five cards the Santa one, with luck today....they will all be ready to mail out.

Back to Cricut land for me!

Popup Box....

Cards.  This is Pinterest inspired and so much fun to make.  My first attempt at making my own popup box card rather than buying the file.

I used my 1/8's Scor-Pal board for all the folds and then finished the Print and Cuts using files in Cricut Design Space.

Not to shabby for my 1st attempt.




Since my Mom will be 91 years old this month....I thought a humorous card would be in order to make her laugh.


Back to finishing up more cards, blessings and hugs, Lori m

Tee shirts and canvas bags

with Cricut infusable ink.

Quick... awesome gifts... and one Tee for Me! Yes, I've been creating with Cricut infusable ink again.

1st up is another Tee shirt I made for myself, something different from the most..... "It's 5 O'Clock somewhere" shirts.

For this shirt I used the Cricut brand Tee's, Cricut Design Space for the images and cutting, along with the Infusable ink markers/pens.


Next up, the Cricut canvas bags, done with Cricut infusable blanks.





That's it for now, next I'm working on my holiday cards and one more Birthday gift a table runner.

Enjoy, blessings and hugs, Lori m

Let it snow...

and so it did.  Our first official snow for the season left us with approximately 13 inches of snow in 24 hours, not counting the 2-4 foot snow drifts.

Here's a very blurry photo sorry....first snow for the year!


I will say.....the first snow fall of the year is just glistening and so pretty, now that's over, I'm good for the year.

So with enough snow talk, here's my first cards finished using the amazing cutting files from The Cutting Cafe, that I won the other day.
Thank you again, Regina.



Aren't these just darling and they make me happy thinking of spring and summer.

I have many more cards to finish, running behind once again, someday...I will catch up.

My day....

yesterday.... was about me... lol.

 I needed some new Tee shirts, and so..... I decided bling a few I had...purchased that were just plain boring.

After watching a great easy to do.... YouTube video.... on cutting Tee shirt designs, I gave that a go too. ( Quite out of my normal, I must admit. )  Something different.... to switch my wardrobe up a bit.

Here's my designs for the week lol.  I used some of my own hand drawn creations, then added designs from Cricut Design Space.



A few were cotton Tee-Shirts which heat vinyl was used. Since I had a couple polyester Tee's on hand....why not try out the new Cricut Infusable Ink markers?

Might I add...if you haven't tried them run quick and enjoy...oh the fun being able to create your own drawings into washable Tee's, that won't peel off....FANTASTIC indeed!

I can see a future of my photos becoming custom family Tee-shirt designs. The wheels in my head are going round and round!

Can you see the Happy Dance happening here?  Now that I've tested the items..... time to start making holiday gifts.

Being a HUGE  Game Of Thrones fan, you'll notice, the GOT inspired creations!

That's it for today, enjoy, blessings and hugs, Lori m
