Silhouettes


I wanted to try to make a silhouette from a picture.  After many tutorials, this is my finished product of our dog, Trixie.  I used Photo Shop Elements 8 and then cut the silhouette out in black card stock with my Cricut.  I glued the silhouette to a piece of white card stock.

Monogrammed Tile



These are made out of 12x12 ceramic tiles and vinyl.  They are very pretty.  I add felt to the back.  They can be hung or rest in an easel.

Monogrammed "Floating" Frame

Monogrammed frame for my in-laws.  This is a glass frame with black vinyl monogram.

Glitter Ornaments!






I know it's nowhere close to Christmas, but I had to make some glitter ornaments.  I used clear glass ornaments and glittered the inside.  Then I personalized them cutting names and dates out of vinyl.  I also made a box out of card stock.  I used a pattern from Heather M's Blog.  They "glitter" so much more in person.

University of Alabama type keychain


I wanted to add something to my daughter's school bag to quickly identify hers.  I cut out an elephant in houndstooth vinyl and then cut out her monogram in red vinyl.  An homage of sorts to U of A.

Beautify your mailbox

I decorated our mailbox using a fancy frame to surround our house number.  It is cut out in vinyl.
