Valentine Shirt (FREE CUT FILE)

January 30, 2021January 30, 2021Leave a comment

Ahhhh… love is in the air. February is right around the corner and that means we are already seeing tons of Reds, Pinks, Hearts and LOVE in all of the stores. It got me thinking. Why must LOVE and hearts be red for Valentines?

I mean teal is absolutely LOVELY.

Raspberry love makes my heart go pitter patter.

And blue makes my grandkids eyes sparkle so bright!

The SVG looks cute as a Sublimation Printable as well! Check out my LOVE MUG! You can get the heart mug here. (Save 15% with code 9PSR5 – Affliate link).

I had a lot of fun using my Pink Heat Press, Siser Easyweed and my Cricut Maker to create these fun sweatshirts! I made the SVG cut file and I am sharing it with you!

You can get the FREE SVG by CLICKING HERE.

The SVG is a ZIP file which means you need to download it (don’t click Paypal, it’s FREE) and then double click it to open it and inside the folder that opens will be the SVG. If you’re on an IPAD or other device, you will need to research how to save and open zip files on your particular device.

As always, I’ve got a video for you. Happy Valentines Day!

How to Iron on a Canvas – Cricut EasyPress 2

August 18, 2018August 18, 20186 Comments

The new Cricut EasyPress 2 (available for purchase this Fall) was released at the Cricut Makeathon a couple of weeks ago! We were all so excited about the new features! Besides the new color (how about that amazing flamingo pink/orange), the new EasyPress 2 heats up to 400 degrees, heats up faster (than the prevous model), has a new improved base plate and now has a USB port for future firmware updates. Already have the Original model? No worries! it still does everything it did before and is still an amazing machine (available on Amazon for $109), however, the new EasyPress 2 now comes in 3 sizes: 6 x 7 (great for onsies and hats), the original 9 x 9 and the big daddy of the bunch 10 x 12 (great for adult tshirting. Yes, Tshirting is a word, a verb rather… the act of making tshirts.

OK… so what is today’s project? Why it’s a super, duper Canvas Wall Decor “Never Stop Making” design.

1122

Sort of fun, right? I record the how to video live on my Facebook Page (yes, live is not my thing.. and I meant to do this in my Cricut EasyPress Group, but instead did it on my personal page… Ugh….), but I saved it, edited out some of the chatty stuff and uploaded it to my youtube. Here you go!

Checkers with the Cricut

July 7, 2018July 7, 2018Leave a comment

I don’t know about you, but I love a quick game of checkers! It’s even more fun when you can make your own checkerboard in any cute fabric and color scheme. This turned out to be a Chicago Bears color scheme (totally unintensionally), but how fun would it be to make one in your school colors for a graduation party, make a patriotic one for July 4th outdoor party or even use some pretty summer fabrics to create a checker set for your deck.

This project comes together so quickly and takes very little sewing experience. I bet you could get away with hot glue if you wanted to… just sayin!

I added this tic tac toe drawstring bag to house all of the checker pieces and it doubles as an alternative game. You could also add the tic tac toe game to the backside of the checkerboard… lots of alternatives with this one!

When you are all done and ready to put it away.. it rolls up into a nice little size that you can easily store until the next game time.

So.. have I convinved you that you need a personalized DIY checkerboard in your life? Well you’re in luck because I’ve got a step by step tutorial for you and you can grab the Cricut Design Space Pattern for the checkerboard here. You can find a product list below the video.

Cricut EasyPress Insulated Lunch Tote

June 23, 2018June 23, 2018Leave a comment

Well hello there! I am back with a QUICK, EASY summer project using your Cricut EasyPress and an insulated lunch tote from the Target Dollar Spot. I picked up this really cute, striped lunch bag and floral can kooze in the Target Dollar Spot earlier today. They had a few difference styles, but these were “my colors”…. and so.. they jumped in my cart…(darn you, Target Dollar Spot!)

As soon as I got home, I knew I needed to find a super cute summer saying to add a little Cricut iron on to make it uniquely mine. LoveSVG had just what I needed and it was FREE. You can find the design I used here.

Applying iron on to a coated polyester (feels like plastic) material can be a bit tricky, but

a few easy to follow steps and you’ll be off making your own personalized lunch totes in no time! Products used are listed at the bottom of this post.

Wouldn’t this be a fun teacher’s gift or great to throw in the tote for an afternoon trip to the park with the kiddos?

Beach Towel Tote Bag!

May 26, 2018May 26, 2018Leave a comment

Hello there! It’s finally starting to look like Summer here in Indiana and that means beach time and lots of running around. I can always use an XL tote to keep me organized from one place to the next. I created this fun bag from a beach towel!

You can’t even believe how easy it is! I made this in under 30 minutes and you can too! This is the perfect beginner sewing project. ( How cute is this “Tropic like it’s Hot” SVG from LoveSVG?)

The best part is, it’s so easy to throw in the laundry with your other towels, it’s easy to personalize (make one for each of the kiddos with their own name), it’s is so big you can use it for the beach, a diaper bag, sleepovers, you name it – I’m pretty sure it’s going to fit! If you want it a little smaller, it’s really easy to downsize, simply cut your pieces smaller.

I personalized my bag with the Cricut EasyPress. I used the cotton settings and made sure to press from both the inside and outside of the bag. I used Glitter Iron On and Regular Cricut Lite Iron On. (Hint: use code LORRIE and save 10% and get free shipping on Iron On and other Cricut Accessories). I used pretty towels from Walmart, but any beach towel would work. Are you ready for the step by step tutorial?

Burp Cloth with the Cricut Easy Press, Maker & Thermoweb HeatnBond

April 15, 20182 Comments

Burp! That’s not something you usually see a blog post start with! Of course, we are talking baby burp cloths. This burp cloth started with a towel from the Target Dollar Spot! I couldn’t resist the cheery orange and pink stripes. Of course, I had to add a cute ruffler (you can watch my tutorial here to find out how).

Now, you know I couldn’t stop with just a ruffle! I had to get the Cricut Maker & Cricut Easy Press involved! I mean, hello?!! This fun, little, ruffled towel was screaming for some pretty letters that said BURP! It was so easy with the help of HeatnBond Lite Adhesive.

So… you want to know how I made this little ditty? Here’s a tutorial for yo

PJs with the Cricut Maker & Heat N Bond

March 11, 2018March 11, 20181 Comment

It’s Sunday Funday! I’m having all the feels for this oh so cute set of PJ’s I made for my cat loving granddaughter, Evie.

cat-pj5

It is so easy to whip these up for any theme. The Cricut Maker cut the fabric which I had fused with Heat N Bond Lite. I just fused it onto a t-shirt with my Cricut Easy Press and then stitched around the edges .

I used the same fabric to make some matching pj pants and ba-da-bing ba-da-boom… the Cat’s Meow PJs are finished! The fabric (in case you have a kitty loving granddaughter in your family) is from Joann Fabrics.

Want to make some? I’ve got another tutorial for you!

Foil a T-shirt with your Cricut Maker, Cricut Easy Press and Deco Foil by Thermoweb!

March 10, 20187 Comments

OH, how I love a good sparkle!

I’m a girl… I think we are born with a “I love a good sparkle” gene. It’s simply a part of who we are. Well, that’s my story and I’m sticking to it.

… and then there’s Evie

Evie has earned the name “Drama Queen” from her mommy. Now, as Grandma (or Lolly, as they all me, I have to defend my sweet little angel grand-daughter. Maybe, she really is a drama queen, but she’s cute!

I made her the perfect sprarkly shirt with Deco Foil, Adhesive Vinyl and some help from my Cricut Maker and Cricut Easy Press! It’s really easy!

What would your child, grandchild’s shirt say?

Want to make one? I’ve got a tutorial for you!
