Hanuka Bunting
I love bunting. I think it’s awesome. I wanted some festive decorations for Hanuka last winter so I decided to make bunting. Even though I love bunting, you’ll be surprised to know that this was the first time I’ve made it! I basically just added tabs to letters in Silhouette studio and then added a…

Silhouette Sunday: Lioness Rhinestone Tank top
So my friend Coco is a lioness. It’s kinda an inside joke, but it’s cuz she’s fierce. I felt the need to emblazon this on a shirt for her so she could advertise this to everyone else. Plus it gave me an excuse to try out my rhinestones. I started by laying out the words…

Silhouette Sunday: Tent Cards

Silhouette Sunday: Thank You Note with Envelope
I needed to send a thank you note to someone at work for a Secret Santa gift, and I thought, why not make the note myself on my Silhouette? I’d been wanting to try this sort of card where the letters stick out from the main area. I designed both the card and envelope myself…

Silhouette Sunday: Flowered Pants
I’ve been itching to try out the heat transfer I got. So I went on to the online store and picked out this cute flower [rough_flower_C00014_27011]. I hate wasting so I copied a bunch of the leaves on the flower and made copies which I then ran down the side of the leg of those…

Silhouette Sunday: Bathroom Wall Art
In our guest bathroom, we have a toilet which is attached to the wall (the kind where the tank is actually in the wall). When we received this toilet it was accompanied by a warning which said there was a 400 lbs. weight limit to prevent it from being ripped out of the wall. Not…
