Now on to my project!

I wanted to make a shirt to go with the theme. I was debating on printing the design on iron on transfer paper with the Imagine or making it with the YUDU. I decided to do it with the YUDU because I just bought the toddler/baby thing for it and thought I had better put it to use. For the YUDU I use the vinyl method to make the shirt. There are several great tutorials on YouTube for it.

Supplies:
White t-shirt
YUDU
Cricut
Gypsy
vinyl
Red and white YUDU paint
"Little Firecracker"- Mickey Font Cartridge
Firecracker- Sweet Treats Cartridge

Thanks for stopping by!

I will see you tomorrow for Day 3 of this hop!

Now on to my project!

I received some Delicious Chocolate covered Oreos as one of my anniversary gifts and knew I wanted to save the tin they came in to make a project for this hop! It was a plain red tin, so it works perfect for this theme!
I used the Martha Stewart Elegant Cake Art cartridge to make the border to go around the tin as well as the die cut on top of the tin.
I then printed out this adorable image, which is also a cut file available at http://www.designsoncloud9.com/.
It was very easy to put together and SO CUTE!
It can be used to carry some treats to take with you to a 4th of July Barbecue! Or as a hostess gift!
