Oh What New Things I Have.

Hello my crafty friends,

Today I am sharing t-shirts I made with my two new machines.

I have been researching heat press machines and a new die-cutting machine.  Proworld had a good deal during the Memorial Day weekend, in which you buy a specific amount and get a discount on the heat press machine so I jumped on it.  I was intimidated by the heat press  machine, however after completing my first t-shirt job I asked myself why I did not buy it sooner. 

  

I have been a loyal cricut customer for a long time.  When the company stops supporting non-cricut software it limited my options to design, I started  research on various die-cutting machines.  I gave my husband a wish list for my birthday/Mother’s Day gift. I was very surprised to receive this in the mail Wednesday. 

Even more surprised because I just ordered the Silhoutte Cameo over the holiday weekend.  The Cameo is currently on back-order until the end of June, I will probably cancel that order. 

The KNK-Zing die-cutting machine is the total opposite of the cricut and cutting layout so now I have to retrain my brain..lol.  Making these t-shirts was my first project using both machines.  It is definitely a new learning curve but I absolutely love the way it cuts the vinyl. 

Here are Dr. Seuss’s Thing 1-Thing 6 t-shirts I made for my co-worker.

Recipe:

Gildan Red T-Shirt (youth L,M,S, 3T, 18M, 12M)

Heat Transfer Vinyl (black and white)

Dr,Seuss Thing "1" clipart

Make-That Cut

Boopee True Font

I can not wait to try other materials on the KNK Zing.  I am planning to keep my Expression 2 to have more options.  Now on to my vacation t-shirts and reorganizing my scrap office again.

I hope you enjoyed, thank you for stopping by,

It's a Family Reunion!!!

Hello my crafty friends,
It is family reunion time on my father’s side of the family.  During our family gathering, we spend 3 days together filled with love, good food, fun & laughter and most important family togetherness.  We definitely motto our family by saying “A family that prays together stay together”. This year our reunion is in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma and I wanted to create something with a western vibe.  I made “WANTED” T-Shirts and a banner.

I created T-shirts using my YUDU silk screening, Vinyl and Freezer Paper.  Making a mass production of T-Shirt I highly recommend using the YUDU.
