Rainbow Pudding Cups

I'm not sure where my brain was this week... I felt foggy and groggy and sleepy and zzzzzzzzzzz

On Monday, my friend Shelley and I were invited to a play date on either Thursday or tomorrow, my response was, "Thursday doesn't work, Madison has school on T/TH, but tomorrow should work :)"

The next text was from my friend Shelley, "Doesn't Madison have school tomorrow?"

Really?!?!?  Where was my brain?  Tomorrow is Tuesday, not Wednesday! duh!  {Thankfully my friend knows my schedule better than I do.}

Later that afternoon, I was working on my Pintastic craft of the week and since I was still completely confused on which day it was, I was worried I wouldn't have my {wednesday} post completed in time.

Then I realized I was doing it again!  It was still Monday... clearly my brain was broken.

Until today... the sun is shinning, it's 80° and the fog is starting to lift :)  So let's get started with today's Pintastic craft.

Start with Jello & food coloring

Separate into bowls, add dye and mix to the color of your liking :)

I have to admit that I was super excited to have bowls {and spoons} the same colors as the rainbow.  Thank you Ikea!  {Yes, I'm a huge nerd}

Now after trying {with little success} to place the pudding in the glass without smearing it everywhere... I figured pipping it through bags would be easier.

It worked perfectly!

If you've never used zip lock bags to pipe, it's really easy.  Snip the corner and just twist the top and squeeze out.  

I put them in shot glasses, since I couldn't find my small glass jars

So cute!

Since the shot glasses turned out so cute, I thought I'd try some other glasses

 

My kids LOVED these, they were sooo excited to finish dinner, so they could have their rainbow pudding for dessert.

HAPPY CRAFTING!

Pintastic Friday #3 {St. Patrick's Day}

Welcome to Pintastic Friday!!

For those of you here for the 1st time, here is a little recap...   I'm going to start sharing a few of my favorite pins each week and then pick one to make.  Last week I selected a few favorites and the "goal" is to share my completed pin with you the next this week. So here is the big question... did I actually complete anything?    {drum-roll please....... }

 

YES!!!

Do you remember all those deliciously yummy PB & Choc desserts I posted last week?!?!  I had the toughest time deciding which one to make, but I finally decided...

Peanut Butter Coffee Cake

So I'm kinda excited about St. Patty's Day this year.  Why??  It's because my kids are finally at an age where they can enjoy the all the fun & festivities.  I can't wait make a leprechaun trap and for them to wake up to green milk... hehe

I'm LUCKY Printable

I'm on a roll!  I made my very first printable a few days ago (St. Patrick's Day Printable) and since I loved the way it turned out,  I decided to make another one!

This one is a little different, it's not Subway art, it's a sweet sentence that everyone can relate to.

I'm LUCKY that you LOVE me

It's such a simple but perfect saying.  You could be referring to your hubby, child, parents, friends, even your four legged loves!  Everyone is loved by someone and we are all lucky to be loved!

Here is what I did:

1. Create design on my Silhouette Cameo
2. Print (I actually shrunk mine quite a bit, since the frame I was going to use was small.  It was 6x8 - very random size)
3. Added a few pics of my family  
4. Taped (or Glue) design to some pretty (and festive) scrapbook paper
5. Frame
6. Find a place to display it 

Done!

The design looks pretty with OR without adding pictures, but I liked the personal touch the pictures added!

 

Now onto the fun stuff:

Below is a .PDF and .JPEG version that you can download and print for yourself!

** Now I've attached it using Scribd AND 4shared, so please let me know which program is easier for you to download - Thanks! **

(If you want the design smaller, just go into your printer settings and shrink the image before printing)

ENJOY!

St. Patrick's Day Onesie - Girl

 

Last week I posted my St. Patrick's Day Onesie for the boys... this week it's time for the girl version!

I was making a bunch of onesies for my future nephew and I figured I should make girl versions of all of them as well.  I wanted to make one for my little girl (arriving at the end of April) as well as one for my best friend who is having a girl, correction, had a girl - she just arrived this past weekend!!

First I made my template on my Silhouette Cameo.  I purchased the designs from their online store.  When you purchase the designs, they will be separate, so you'll have to choose the colors you want and then stack them up how you want them.  Next, I wanted it to look "girly" so I put the clovers in the middle of a heart <3.

A few pointers:

1) Make sure to PRE-WASH your onesie/clothing item first

2) Make sure to print your template out on normal paper first to confirm that you have the appropriate size/shape for the garment you are using.

3) VERY IMPORTANT!! Make sure to MIRROR your image BEFORE you print the final image on your iron-on sheets.  Otherwise everything will be backwards :/

 

Here are the templates all ready to be ironed on.

DONE :)

I love the rainbow on the back - so cute!  Soon, I'll have a little one to actually model my creations - I can't wait! :)

St. Patrick's Day Printable

My new favorite thing is Subway Art, I think it's so much fun and so creative!  Two people can use the same words and even the same program to make something and the two projects will turn out completely different!  I just love the creative freedom it allows. :-D

In the past, I usually tried to find a few printables that I could just download and display (in a pretty frame), but this time I thought I'd make one myself.

Here's what I did:

1. Create the "art" on my Silhouette Cameo
2. Print
3. Frame
4. Add a few green and cream felt flowers to the frame     (felt flower tutorial - click here)
5. Place on mantel

Looks cute huh?

I have to say, for it being my 1st one, I was very proud of myself - haha.  

Now on to the good stuff... 

Below is a .PDF version that you can download and print for yourself - FOR FREE!

ENJOY!

UPDATE:

Since this is my 1st time trying to attach a .PDF to my blog, I wasn't sure which program was the best (and easiest) for YOU to use and download (with little hassle).  Anyhow, I originally attached the documents using Scribd, but now I'm also going to attach it using 4Shared.  

Please let me know which is more user friendly for YOU, since that's what matters! THANKS :)

St. Patrick's Day Onesie - Boy

Pin It

It's hard to believe that February is already over!! These past 2 months have flown by and now we are on our way to March... which means St. Patrick's Day Projects!!  

As I mentioned in my Valentine's Day Onesies post, my sister-in-law is having a little boy, so I wanted to make some cute (and personal) onesies for him to wear.  Now, he won't be here until the end of April, so this will have to hang in the closest for awhile....

The onesie was pretty simple to make, I used my Silhouette Cameo (which my hubby bought me for xmas and I absolutely LOVE).   I purchased the designs from the Silhouette online store and then made my template.  

A few pointers:

1) Make sure to PRE-WASH your onesie/clothing item first

2) Make sure to print your template out on normal paper first to confirm that you have the appropriate size/shape for the garment you are using.

3) VERY IMPORTANT!! Make sure to MIRROR your image BEFORE you print the final image on your iron-on sheets.  Otherwise everything will be backwards :/

The 1st image is before the MIRROR option, the 2nd image is after - see the difference?

Next, either have your Silhouette cut out the image, or take a pair of scissors and cut it out yourself, then iron it on.

So cute huh?
I can't wait to see my little nephew wearing this!
