Glass Etchings

I had a friend turning 40 this month, so decided to make her some monogrammed etched wine glasses with stencils made in SCAL and cut on my E.  They turned out super cute.

ACU Leopard Purse

Newest order for a purse was for a customized purse.  The lady wanted something that reflected her life.  The outside ACU to reflect her husband in the service.  The inside to reflect her love for leopards, and a lady bug applique on the strap to reflect her daughter.

I will say I was a bit skeptical about how this was going to look, but once it was put together, I was quite amazed that it looked pretty dang good.

Baby Shower Card

I made a baby shower card for a friend having a little boy.  I made these on my new Cricut Expression (E in the future) and using SCAL.  I was tracing the images with a gel pen that was crap and died on me half way through the project.  I didn’t have any extras, and this was made the night before the shower, so I was unable to go buy a new one to finish it up.

K’s Thank You Cards

Again I used my Cricut and SCAL to make the Thank You cards to go along with K’s party.  I love that SCAL allowed me to cut out “Thank You” in the Rope font, I need to try to find a lasso to put in her hand yet, but I think they turned out pretty cute.

Twinkie Minions

I found this link with a tutorial to make minions, K is loving Despicable Me right now.  When she seen these she begged me to make her some.  How can I say no to that cute little face?  I did change up the black licorice (YUCK) and used tootsie rolls instead.  They melted in my hand though so didn’t stick up too well for the hair and actually makes these look really sloppy, but K didn’t care, she devoured them.
