    Happy Valentine’s Day! Today we are celebrating Sunday Funday Freebie Day with some funny adulting humor! Let’s face it adulting is hard and then add in this last year! So pat yourself on the back and remind yourself you are doing amazing! Don’t be hard on yourself. Laugh and enjoy life. We will all get through this. So with that being said I have a FREE Adulting Bundle for you. In the bundle there are different options and choices, why, because one, I couldn’t make up my mind and two, I want male and female options.

    I have also created a video on using HTV (Heat Transfer Vinyl) on a shirt. This weeks video I used Cricut Design studio to show you how to upload your project and send it to your cutter. You will also see a little trick that i like to do. What is that you asked?? Mirror or flip you image (SVG) before sending it to cut. We have all forgotten to mirror. This little trick has helped me not to forget, especially if you cancel to go back and tweak something. Also, you will see a little visitor while I was weeding. Mr Lumiere loves to help mom craft and especially weed vinyl. #gingersnap

    Conversation Hearts

    Hello to Sunday Funday! So hard to believe this is the last day of January! So have some fun with this weeks FREE file. The Conversation Hearts FREE Cutting File reminds of the hearts we use to exchange on Valentine’s Day at school. It was always so much fun to read the messages. To get your FREE file head please go to my Freebie Library, sign in (don’t worry if you are not a member yet, sign up and the password will be emailed to you!!!) and download Number 9. In the zip file you download will be 4 files.  They are SVG, PNG, DXF (If you have the free version of Silhouette Studio you will need this file) and EPS. The file actually has 4 groupings for you. One is the words, the second is the smaller heart that the words are on. Then i made a really cute lace that has dots in it. Then l created a larger heart for it all to sit on. If you would like to use print and cut or sublimation i have included 3 versions of the png for you. Take a look and have some fun!!

    If you enjoy the weekly FREE Cutting Files please make sure you are pinning my blog posts. This really helps me!! Also, please stop back and leave a comment with what you made. It is so much funny seeing that creative energy!

    I made quite a few things. First i made lollipops. These were made from wooden hearts from the Dollar Tree, posts are from Home Depot and then vinyl and paint I already had on on hand. I then grabbed some basket bags from Dollar Tree and put those over them. They were so fun to make. However, in Wisconsin I have to stick them in a snow bank! Then i made a fun garland for the fireplace. Using card stock and foam tape to layer the hearts and string them on jute. Super Simple!! Next was this fun heart bucket. I used the same hearts I used for the garland, put them on skewers and then added some twine hearts to give it an extra twist. I then just stuck some in my tiered trays. Something simple, easy and fun. These would be cute for the kids to make valentines with too!!!

  • FREE Heart Subway Tile Cutting File

    FREE Heart Subway Tile Cutting File

    Heart Subway Tile
    Heart Subway Tile

    Happy Sunday Everyone!! We are snowy here in Wisconsin so it’s a perfect day to do some crafting! Today I am sharing with you my FREE Heart Subway Tile Cutting File.  I designed it to be use a Dollar Tree Heart. This helps keep the costs down and a perfect use for that chalk board center! To get your file head over to the Freebie Library, sign in (don’t worry if you are not a member yet, sign up and the password will be emailed to you!!!) and download Number 8! In the zip file you download will be 4 files.  They are SVG, PNG, DXF (If you have the free version of Silhouette Studio you will need this file) and EPS.  Also, before you go and download your file I would appreciate the Pinterest save on this blog post! That helps me so that I can keep sharing free files!! You can also follow me on Instagram, Facebook and Pinterest! Again, I am small business and this support is HUGE!!!  Thank you!

    I have also uploaded to my shop some really cute Valentine’s files. There is some cute gnomes, leopard and other animal prints, etc.  Also, keep on the watch for a pink gnome valentine truck design that would be great as a print and cut or sublimation!!!

    Now, back to the Heart Subway Tile….
    Here is the list of supplies that used to make it:
    – Dollar Tree Chalkboard Heart
    – 4 Different colors of vinyl.  I used Red, White, Dark Pink and a light pink. 
    – Transfer Tape
    – Scrapping tool
    – Cutting Machine and software
    – Heart Subway Tile File from the Freebie library

    Heart Subway Tile - Supplies
    Heart Subway Tile – Supplies

    Load the file into your cutting software.  I have designed and grouped the file for you into the four different colors.  When I uploaded the SVG to my cutting software I did add registration marks on the top to help me line things up. I also added a cut box around the image.  This helps save on vinyl so you know where the perimeter area is.  I then cut all four pieces of my vinyl. One thing I also like to do before pulling my mat out of the cutting machine is confirm that everything is cut.  I normally will weed out the center of a few letters to confirm this.  This way if something didn’t cut all the way I can send it back through without wasting any vinyl!

    I then weed all 4 pieces of vinyl. Next up, I take my transfer tape and lay it over the biggest area.  I do this so I have the back I can put back on the weeded design.  I use my scrapping tool and rub the transfer tape onto the vinyl.  I pull the back off from the vinyl.  Expose the registration marks and then put the backing back on the rest of the design.  I then take the next piece of weeded vinyl, line up the registration marks.  Once that is done I then start pulling the backing away and rubbing the transfer tape over the new piece.  I continue this process for all 4 pieces.  Once that is done I pull the registration marks from the transfer tape and apply the design to the heart. Using my scrapper I rub everything well.  I then I pull the transfer tape.  I keep the transfer tape close to the design as I peel it off so it comes off easily.

    Now you can add your own finishing touches!!!  I added a messy bow of ribbon and jute (all from the dollar tree) and then add some beads that I had on hand.  I actually had all items on hand in my stash.  This was a great project to use what I had!!!!

  • Sunday Funday Heart Lines Free File

    Sunday Funday Heart Lines Free File

    FREEBIE FILE

    Happy Sunday Funday! So let’s have some fun with these Heart Lines Freebie File cutting file to start our week off! I have designed 4 cut files for you in this bundle. The design is Heart Lines that I then added either the word Love with hearts, a Heart with a paw print (you can leave the paw off too!), a paw print or plain. Let your creativity go!!! You will also see the project I made with the Love cut file and the steps I took to create it. To get your file head over to the Freebie Library, sign in (don’t worry if you are not a member yet, sign up and the password will be emailed to you!!!) and download Number 7! Also, I would appreciate the Pinterest save! That helps me so that I can keep sharing free files!! You can also follow me on Instagram, Facebook and Pinterest!

    12PD Heart Lines Bundle
    Here is the cute sign I made with the Love

    To start with I use a Dollar Tree sign I bought at halloween time. It is 6″x6″ in size. I pealed the paper word part off and then gave it a good sanding to get everything off. Next I used chalk paint and applied 2 coats on it. You can use acrylic paint as well or whatever you have at home. I did do a light sanding between coats. Next I took some painters tape and placed it on the board about 1 ½” apart and painted those stripes black. It also would have been cute in grey! Again, let the creativity go!!! While the black was still wet I peeled the tape off to make sure to help eliminate bleed. Below i have my initial steps.

    • Sign from the Dollar Tree
    • Peel the words off and sand
    • Paint with your favorite paint
    • Use painters tape to paint the stripes
    • Peel the tape off while it is still wet

    Next I uploaded my file into my favorite cutting software. I ungrouped the heart i was going to use and then picked my colors. I used red glitter for the heart, pink for LOVE and the heart base and then white glitter vinyl for the hearts on top. I like to save time and cut my 2 glitter vinyls together and then cut my glossy vinyl. Cut out your vinyl and then weed out the pieces you don’t want. If you noticed on the red glitter, I cut out the extra before weeding so i could save some for a future project. Once I had everything weeded I then needed to grab a stickier transfer paper for the glitter vinyl. I then applied my vinyl to the sign. You want to make sure your sign is nice and dry. I will let mine sit over night. However, I am normally impatient and I will use a heat gun, hair dryer or put it in front of the heater or fireplace (I live in Wisconsin). I applied the heart first, then Love and then the white glitter hearts on top.

    • Cut out your vinyl
    • Weed vinyl
    • Place vinyl on the the sign

    Then to finish it off I added a messy bow. A mess bow is layered cut ribbon on top of each other and tie in the center. I then glued it onto the sign.

    Please share what you make with these files! I love to see the creativity!!!
