Little Crafty Me!
I’ve been busy in my craft-room again, yup, little crafty me. I’m so happy.
My Cricut Maker has been working overtime!! I made a ton of t-shirts for friends and family. I’m really excited about my sisters t-shirt. It came out super cool! My sister Lea is a huge Sugar Skull fan. This t-shirt does look better in real life, some of the glitter vinyl doesn’t show up well, however, that is how I learn right??? Still overall, I think she will be happy with it.
Next up, with all the construction going on around the house we have a ton of scrap wood and I’ve wanted to try stenciling on wood and what better way than to use the scrap pieces?? SERIOUSLY, this came out awesome!! 
Now that I know what it looks like I’ll be trying different designs on slices of the stumps from the trees we had to cut down. Wouldn’t that look awesome? Round with bark still attached? Maybe 2″ thick???
Now that I know what it looks like I’ll be trying different designs on slices of the stumps from the trees we had to cut down. Wouldn’t that look awesome? Round with bark still attached? Maybe 2″ thick???Then of course I did some of my favorite items to add vinyl to are tumblers.
I had to give up the last one I created for myself, (needy friends and family!! Ahhhh it comes with the price of creativity. I ALMOST said that with a completely straight FACE!!)! So, I decided that I would grab a PURPLE color tumbler this time. I THINK I’m safe with purple. Right??
Anyway, right now a mug for ME!!
Check this out; this is an insulated wine tumbler. Two tumblers in this package. Each as a well-fitting lid 2 extra gaskets, 2 metal straws.
I put ice in this insulated cup before I went to bed. It’s been in the mid 60’s at night here in Idaho.
The ice was still solid with very little melting 12 hours later.
The purple color is very pretty. Not a bright purple a very rich color. There are tons of colors available.
Ohhhhh that Aqua color!! How I am drooling over it. 
The vinyl adheres quickly and stays strong.
Check out my design.
MAN! I do love creating these tumblers with funny quotes.
What do you think? What would you put on a tumbler?
Maybe it’s time for just a design? So many options!

Gracious, you have been busy, Connie! Do you have a plan/structure or do you just wake up and think, right, today I’m doing …. ?

Kate, I just wake up and think Alice needs a new t-shirt. Or I’ll think Ohhhhhhh these colors would make a great pour. Yup, flyin’ by the seat of my pants.
My day starts with Bear and I taking a hike. Sometimes 15 minutes and sometimes 2 hours. Then I tell Bear “Let’s go to work” she flies down the stairs to my room. I usually check emails. Try to remember to answer comments. Think of something to post about on here. Then the room behind me calls to me!! Turn on the CRICUT do it….. do ittttttt.
3pm Bear and I head upstairs to start dinner. My day sounds boring but I am truly calmer, happier, peaceful and more creative than I have ever been!

I had to go look up some quotes on sarcasm: “Sarcasm – the ability to insult idiots without them realizing it.” “Everyone seems normal until you get to know them.”
Connie Gruning
Sarah, I think that sarcasm quote will be making it’s way to a t-shirt!
Terri S.
You are so creative. I love all 3 projects. My favorite is the skull tee.
Connie Gruning
Terri, Thank you. I haven’t heard from my sister if she like it. I guess I will have to ask.
Nancy C
I really like those tumblers. I have a cricuit that’s been just sitting there so you’re inspiring me to get going. Love the Sugar Skull tee!
Connie Gruning
Nancy, thank you. I really truly love my Cricut. I’ve been watching all these YouTube videos of the crafters making paper flowers. I have to try that this week.
Sue E
I like it! The colors are cool ? And I would be sarcastic if I didn’t have my coffee ☕️
Connie Gruning
Sue, I’m pretty much sarcastic all the time. Even with my coffee.
Tamra
I love the sugar skull top. It looks sooo cool. Your sister will be thrilled.
Connie Gruning
Tamra, Thank you! I hope she likes the t-shirt too.
