Arent these cute? I still wanna add some stickles to the unicorns horn thing, but they are done for the most part. I cut out a template for each using freezer paper and then pinned that to the felt. Cute little pocket on the front for the tooth and done.

Raiders

Isnt it cute??? Ok so making sure it was centered and straight was no easy task and lets not forget to mention the fact that the first time I cut out the raider image I forgot to flip the image first! I will need to make my matching shirt tmrw :)

Teaching

I have been wantiing to create a little album to hold the pictures from student teaching along with little tidbits and stuff from my first year... I was inspired to use my new bingo cards and my bind it all. I swear.... that thing and I have a love hate relationship!

The small stuff

I have these little guys almost done.... I used velvet ribbon around the neck and a little brad... not sure I like the look though so that is why the other two are naked!

Another new cartridge

How could I resist an ebay purchase like this? $21 including shipping! Funny how it came from Oh My Crafts too.

advent calendar part 2

I put the numbers on the little tile things for my tree advent calendar. I used vinyl..... pink vinyl would have been better but I didnt have the right shade! These numbers are from designers calendar cartridge.

Boys room

Broke out the big mat for this one! I really liked now it turned out... I tell ya Im going vinyl crazy over here! That font is from the designers calendar and so is the ship.

Doors

So this whole vinyl thing.... I might be addicted! My house might be covered in vinyl next tme you see it lol! I did Kelseys door and then used this hallween cut file for SCAL for my front door. Too cute!

This was just a simple card Kelsey and I made together for her teacher finally coming back to school after being sick for so long. She was bummed she didnt bring her teacher a card like all the other kids.... bad mom I know. Better late than never though right?

Two teacher gifts done! I think I will put a white piece of paper for the background.... any ideas? I also need to attach the dry erase pen but cant figure out how I wanna do that. The idea somehow attached a thing to the fram and tied ribbon to that and the pen.

YAY I got the first part of Spencers gift done... well I need to super glue a picture hangy thing on the back but then I am done! I ended up going with a basic black ribbon to go around the edge of the picture. Used some cool fabric glue that worked like a charm.

My calendar

I said I couldnt wait to play.... :) I had this piece of metal laying around so thought I would try and make a calendar... SUPER easy with the gypsy to lay it all out before cutting it. My biggest issue was trying to line the calendar cut out up on the metal sheet.... HOW??? Its a little crooked and is driving me crazy! I am telling myself to leave it alone... just walk away... so hard!

I will design the number/empty boxed next to finish this up... oh ya and the months. Cool though huh?

calendar

I LOVED this idea at craft warehouse and want to make one of my own They sell the magnet board with the calendar on it for $9.99 and then I would just need to embelish it. OR I could attempt to cut vinyl with my new cartridge for the calendar..... Hmmm wonder which would be cheaper?
