BUCKET LISTS ANYONE?!?


So... my brother-in-law turns 50 this week and skydiving is on his bucket list. I thought this would be a fun gift - (would be even more adorable as a candy bouquet, huh?!?!) We'll see if it gets checked off the list while we are in CO together this week! :-) I wished I had done the white shadow on the front but had that part done before I thought of it... and I hadn't figured out how to do that until I got to the 'saying' side! Oh well, it's a learning process and he'll get a kick out of it nonetheless!

Easy Weed

OK girls... I FINALLY got busy with my Easy Weed iron on vinyl tonight and made a couple of personalized items for my great niece who is to make her debut next month. First attempt was a little 'iffy' but then I reset pressure and it was a breeze! I am anxious to see how it washes up for her. If it's as great as I've read, this is super slick!! This photo isn't the most clear (was much better on my computer than here) and I used white on the pink hooded towel. I might end up adding hot pink as another layer and make the white sort of a shadow... that's the neat thing, you can use this stuff and do layers - so they say. I'll let ya know if I do that!

16" tile

Here's the latest tile I've done. It's a 16" - my first this size. Wanted to do a border too but couldn't find what I was looking for so I spaced out the names a bit more than I first planned.

Pop Can Candy Bouquets



Sara had the great idea of using pop cans for our candy bouquets. What a cute idea!!
