Rip oFF



Okay, I totally ripped off this shirt. 
Sometimes I need a little inspiration, so I look around in other places to help me get creatative...I'm not the only, am I?  I found this one here...



(Mini Boden USA $24.00)



And then I made this one...


(Walmart & a little time and effort...less than $4.00)


I'm loving how this one turned out.












Another HaPpY customer.
He calls it his Sk8 boaRd Dude shiRt.

I also borrowed the embroidery idea from her...lover her, she's pretty much genius.

Fun Freezer Paper Tees


So I've had these on my desk (er, craft table) for quite some time now waiting to be finished up. 
Another take on the tee.  Freezer paper stenciling.  Have you seen these around?  I've seen them here and there and thought I would try my hand at them.  They are so fun and not too hard to do!  I've made a couple of them now and will show each one for the next couple of days as to not make this post super long.

First I found some plain front tees (Walmart...my boys LOVE the muscle tees) and a bit of fabric paint (Joanns).  I already had the freezer paper from previous projects...so I was off to make my tees.

I decided to start with a shirt for my 3 year old.  He has outgrown his favorite t-shirt (finally!), a pirate t-shirt, but he cannot bring himself to 'hang it up' for good...still tries to sneak it on, EVERY DAY, and I'm afraid it is no longer containing his little belly. So to make this transition a little eaiser for him (and me) I made up a new pirate shirt using this template for the skull and crossbones.

Here's how it turned out...



After I stenciled the skull I added some applique...



And then a little embroidery stitching...





He is a huge fan!  He tells me almost daily, "I wuv my new pirate shirt, Momma!"



And that's good enough for me.  ArrGh.

Sharin' Some LOvE {a GiveAwaY}





I feel like sharin' some love today.  But before we get to that...









The ScaLLoped LoVe BaNneR. We all know I  have a little addiction.  I've almost got one for every season now.  If you're interested in a tute, I found a few around the web...here...and here.  I made my scallops a little bit bigger and used ribon instead of bunting or fabric for the top.







Now, did I say something about a giveaway?  In honor of the season of LoVE, I thought it would be fun to share a little.  So here's what I've got.  I'm giving away an I {HeaRt} MoM (or DaD) tatoo tee/onesie or a LOVE tee/onesie (pictures below). 


boys I {heart} Mom onesie.




girls I {heart} Dad tee.






girls LOVE tee





All you have to do is pick which shirt you like best, then sign up to be a follower on the side bar (if you are already one that counts too) and leave a comment telling me what shirt design you want and what size.  Shirt colors and styles may vary from those pictured.  Depends on what I can find.  So there you have it.  Easy.  You share some love, I'll share some love.  Giveaway closes Monday at midnight.  I'll post the winner on Tuesday (next week).


Now if your looking to share a little love somewhere else.  Haiti sure could use some.



Craft Hope for Haiti on Etsy. Crafters around the world have donated their crafts and proceeds from their sells are going to Doctors without Boarders.  They have stopped taking craft donations for the next little bit, they've been overwhelmed, but I intend to donate a few items once they start taking them again...really one person can only have so many banners.  They've already sold 10,000 items and have raised over $20,000 (as of yesterday).  I loved this quote the had on their blog...

"A small body of determined spirits fired by an unquenchable faith in their mission can alter the course of history." --Gandhi

The shop is still open to purchase these donated items.  So go.  Shop.  Share some love.  And alter the course of history while you do it.

SpeciaL DeLivery




Note!  MeGaN H.  this post includes the items I will be sending to you...if are wanting to be surprised...look NO further.


I'm very excited because my cute sis-in-law FiNaLLY had her sweet baby boy just this past week. So you know what that means...I got to break out the sewing machine. Yay!  Instead of going to the store and purchasing one outfit that would last maybe a month (you know how fast those babies grow) I came up with the idea to do a years worth of onesies...a shirt for every season.  Here's just a bit of what I've been working on...


His name is Tate. Cute. And he is from the land of potato (Idaho).  So it was obvious there needed to be a "tater" shirt.




And you can't cultivate those potatoes with out one of these...





For Spring/Easter...




I'm not finished with this one quite yet...but thought I would post it while I'm posting.  I totally photoshopped his little legs in :)




For HaLLoween...






One more...Valentines is just around the corner (this one happens to be my favorite)...




I loved it so much I had to make one for each of my little guys.



These are on their way tomorrow Mr. Tate.  We are so excited you are here and CANNOT wait to meet you!
