Ornament

My godchild lost a baby last year. It was her first baby and such a terrible loss. They later got pregnant and she had her son this year. 

I made this below ornament for her to remember her first baby in her belly!

Mom's Frame


I made my momma this picture frame for Mother's day. I glued down these flowers on the frame and coated it with mod podge. I also put a picture of my mom and I in this frame before giving it to her. 

It turned out so well!

This is my Mandalorian mask with Baby Yoda on it... or shall I say Grogu.

Birthday sign


I made this super cute sign for a friend. She wanted to put it in a co-workers cake for her birthday. (I also know the birthday girl too, so it was fun to make.) I cut the words with cardstock paper, I had the Baby Yoda (Grogu) sticker already, so I just created the purple background and then put it all on a white background. It turned out SUPER adorable. 

I have not played around with making cards yet, but I might do that at one time frame in my life. I just haven't had the time with making shirts/stickers/signs/masks. I might try my hand at making some custom ones next year for some family/friends and see how I like it. 

Until then, I will do these custom orders when they come in...

Baby items




These are some of my first baby items I have created. I think they turned out so well. The baby ones are so fun to create. 

 

My first sign

 


For this past Christmas, I made this sign for my friends. It turned out so well. I bought the sign on Amazon and added permanent vinyl onto this. I loved how it turned out...

My newest hobby...

What a crazy year and a half it has been. I never in my lifetime thought that we would be going through a pandemic like the one we are going through. I never thought my kiddo would be doing online schooling for 1 1/2 years of her middle school life. It is just so crazy. But I am thankful for my life and all the people who are in it... so I feel blessed!

That being said... here we are in the start of a pandemic and my best friend decides she wants to buy a new Cricut machine. I played around with hers before and I LOVED it... So, when she said that and offered to sell me hers, I said YES!

I have had my Cricut now for around 8 months now and I am still loving it. I think this hobby will be one that lasts FOREVER! 

I finally have a heat press for the shirts that I create and for my birthday from my parents I got a mini heat press. I used my iron when I did my masks, but I felt like it didn't work as well as I wanted it to. I absolutely LOVE my mini press. I have used it now on a few masks and on some of my wood projects, that I will be sharing soon.

My new favorite trick is to use heat transfer vinyl on wood. It turns out so neat and it barely looks like the vinyl is there. When I used permanent vinyl on wood projects, you could feel the sticker on the wood, but this is a new experience and I am having so much fun creating with it. 

I figured, why not create my craft blog to share some of my favorite projects I have done. Welcome, if this is the first time stopping by. And please let me know if you would like any projects done! I am having so much fun creating!
