Printed T shirts - ready for an outing

I see people selling t shirts with slogans but can never remember what they are, or what's suitable for me

So this afternoon I decided to print some up for a forthcoming outing

My OH is always joking around, he`s very intelligent and ran a successful business but he always winds people up

So I decided to get one over on him

I printed these t shirts for the whole family

I used T shirt transfer sheets i picked up on eBay and some t shirts that were 5 for £12, also on eBay 

4 of the t shirts are like this

And his is like this

Sweet Bouquets

These are easy to make and are lovely for all ages and any budget

They`re great for Christmas presents, Valentines and Birthday treats

And fun to make too, what more could you want

Cat and Dog Window Cards Silhouette Files

I designed these cards for Cats and Dog lovers everywhere and the free cutting files are available from here

christmascraft

I think the cat is looking out for Santa while the dog is looking in looking for the cat

Old frames, cardboard boxes, recycled with decoupage

fancied a change from usual crafts so thought I`d give decoupage a go

I took some old frames and cardboard boxes

PVA glue

and some free backing papers from magazines

I tore the backing paper up into small pieces

Then coated the frame a little at a time with PVA glue

After all frame was covered , I applied a thin layer of PVA glue

I think they came out very well and as all the items were free, very cost effective

I had to share this, it made me laugh

Sorry its my silly sense of humour

I know Christmas is coming when...

....my first Christmas card is made

This is my first attempt at a tri-fold card, I`ve enjoyed making it but as alot of my cards are to go through the post this year, this one will be too thick...back to the drawing board I think
