Wedding Job

A couple of months back I posted some Bride & Groom mugs I made as bridal shower gifts & another set for a Bride & Grooms wedding day.  Well one of the brides asked me to make her bridal party mugs...oh did we have fun!!!  

Take a look....

There is a story as to why the lips & stache are on the bottoms of these mugs...it goes back to this group of girls who are all getting married this year....the bride loved my idea of adding that element!

 

Fans of Michigan

One of my friends who lives in Maryland recently posted a shirt she liked, I told her that I thought I could recreate it for her...So she sent me the shirts & I showed her the design I came up with and she approved & I completed.  She & her hubby are diehard Michigan Wolverine fans (GO GREEN) which living in Maryland they cannot attend any games but this is a great way to show your support....

Now they can show there Wolverine Pride!!  I know she will be happily wearing these this Saturday for the MSU vs UofM game....Happy Crafting 

The BIG game 2012

Well we here in the great State of Michigan are always divided over a college football game once a year.  You either support the Michigan State Spartans or the University of Michigan Wolverines.  Supporting these teams can cause a great divide in your home.  Well, my home is one of those homes =)....I've been a DIEHARD MSU fan my entire life...My hubby on the other hand is a DIEHARD Michigan fan.  So this year we are hosting our ever growing family & I decided to make sure for everyone!  Although we as a WHOLE family are bigger Spartan fans =)  I guess this Saturday we will see how really is the Victors.....

This one is the first one I made...it's for my grand daughter....You can never go wrong with Hello Kitty & Bling!!!  I know she is going to love love love it!

Next up is the oldest grandson....he is a BIG Michigan fan but he will support Michigan state when they are not playing Michigan....

These 2 are for our youngest daughter & youngest grandson!!!

And these are for the other men in our family that are Michigan fans......I love love love that I can create all these items for my family to make a SPECIAL day unforgettable .....hoping to have a family photo taking and play some football during halftime.

 

Erica's 25 daily projects for the 25 days of December

Hello All...today's theme is Sports.  I am #23 ornament.
I am from the great state of Michigan.  We have some great college football teams but the 2 that stand out the most are University of Michigan & Michigan State University being a fan of these teams can pit families against eachother (I live in a divided household myself 2 U of M fans, 2 MSU fans I am a BIG MSU fan).  Our Detroit Tigers had a really good season this year also.......let's take a look =)

 Supplies:

For the Michigan & Michigan state bulbs I used Plantin Schoolbook, & for the words Tiger also.  
Blackletter cart was used for the old english D on the Tiger bulbs
glass bulbs
martha stewart glitter
vinyl from www.expressionsvinyl.com

Happy Crafting =)

A Princess of a Gift

Hello all if you are coming from Jill Thee Scrapoholic Christmas blog hop you are in the right place.  This is my 2nd project this month & I am super excited that I was asked to participate.  I found these cute Pink boxes clearanced out at my local Michaels this Summer and I knew from that moment what exactly what I envisioned for this...I saw some bling & an ornament holder all in the same.  So of course I held on to these until Christmas time and came up with this..

So I took some bling placed it in the crown holes on the block, wrapped some double sided wire ribbon around the brim of the box....

Use my gypsy to cut out the word Princess from the Winter woodland cart ( Love this cart...thanks Emma!) Used transfer tape to place it on the box.  The box is done...but that was not the only part of my vision on had for this....

Took the flat glass bulbs filled with glitter, cut out a crown (cannot remember the name of the cart for that =( sorry ).  Put some Bling on the crown, add some feathers to the top, placed some tissue in the box & done!!  I just love this packaged item for a Christmas gift for the Little Princess in your life.

Merry Christmas to you all~
