Cricut Creations - Bridal Shower Mirror

I was asked to make a bridal shower mirror sign for the recently engaged couple I made the other mirror for.  It's always fun to make something new / different :)

Cards

I've managed to spend some time in my scraproom lately:)  I got some cards made - the first card was uaing a new castle die & stencil set.  I also used a stamp set I've had in my stash that hadn't been inked yet.

This is a CASE of a card I spotted on Pintrest. I really like how this one turned out - might make a few more.

I made the 4x backgrounds a few weeks ago after being inspired by a video, but wasn't sure what I wanted to make with them. While I was searching through my stamps, I found my fave large floral set and decided to have a play - I'm really happy with the final product!

Everyday Moments

Another fabulous Bunnings activity- paint pouring.  We love these free DIY activities!

Piggy cuddles :)

The shark I ordered to finish the Lego set....and a gold shark Clay wanted LOL

Valentine's day dinner with my 2 favourite people.

The boys spotted these cars while out running errands last weekend.

We fiinally found the Macca's Grimace tumbler in stock- one happy boy!

Swims and a fluffy life guard who was not impressed he wasn't allowed in too LOL

Cricut Creations - Shirt

I couldn't resist making my Tesla obsessed little man a shirt to wear when he finally got to go for drive in one last weekend :)

 

Cricut Creations- Library Bag

Clay asked for a new school library bag - so I used a design Kristy had created to make one.  I will admit this is my 2nd attempt - the first one had to be thrown away when the green dinosaur layer didn't adhere down fully and got ruined when I tried to removed the cover sheet - doh!  I made a few changes to the design and the cutting & weeding was time.consuming, so the labour of love took a lot longer to finish then expected.  Clay absolutely loves it, so it was worth it all :)

3D Print Creations

I've managed to get a few items printed over the last month :)

This Lego ruler didn't print perfectly,so will make some changes and try again.

Roses and a stud for my Lego wreath- so detailed!!

Basket for my cricut.

Legs / raisers for my cricut.

Mini Adventures - Part 2

After we finished looking at the Mary Poppins displays we headed to City Hall to see the Peace Cake. 

While we were there the tourist information people suggest we look at the Cistern Chapel... Handpainted public toilets! They were absolutely stunning (and functioning)!

Last stop - Krispy Kreme donuts and slurpees before hitting the road!

We spotted this BIG Ned Kelly on the way out :)
