Stand tall Pineapple Makeup bag| My Life in Arts n Crafts

Hey everyone Jessi here from My Life in Arts n' Crafts and today I have a cute makeup bag using the adorable Pineapple from the Shoptastic Cuties collection, as always pop on over to my blog for direct links to products used 



I did have some issues with this project, I couldn't get the printable transfer to transfer so some bits are a little choppy, I think if I was to redo this project I would use a different transfer material.

Dream Big Baby Onesie

Hey Everyone 
Jessi here from My Life in Arts n' Crafts 

Today I have a baby onesie, at this point I guess I'm stocking up on baby gear incase we have kids ever...  anyway. 

I used the Cute Lil Hatchems Giraffe with a Dream Big quote. 
I really like how it came out. I didn't use my go to avery printable transfer because I ran out so I used some off brand and it didn't quite transfer right, it gave more of a watermark effect. It worked well with having the glitter Htv over top.

Sharky Birthday card

Hey everyone Jessi here! 

Remember when Spectrum Noir came out with the sparkle brush markers? I bought all of them and there they sit .... so I decided to play with them. 

I used the same shark as I did for the shirt the other day. I cut all my pieces out of white 110# cardstock and colored them with blue sparkle brushes. Blending was not easy so they ended up just being a sold color, since this is for a kid I figured it’s all good he won’t care... I added some balloons and some rainbow paper...

 how many of you bought the sparkle brush markers?

It's a Shark T-Shirt

Hey everyone! 
Jessi here from My Life in Arts n' Crafts, Thanks for stopping by! 
Can You tell I am obsessed with printable iron stuff?
I will have Direct Links to all supplies over on my blog! Click this banner below to pop on over there! 


I printed the shark on Printable Iron on for dark fabrics which is basically a weird white film. I then pulled off the backer and laid it on my shirt I cut out text with mint HTV from Siser. I used my easy press to melt it to the shirt. Make sure you put the parchment sheet over it because it melts to the heat press if you don't. I set my Easy press for 350 degrees and 30 seconds I pressed it on the front once, checked it and then pressed more on the HTV as needed I waited for it to cool pulled off the plastic from the HTV and then flipped my shirt inside out. I made sure to put the parchment back inside over the design and pressed once more inside out to make sure everything was secure. I think it came out super cute and totally fits this kids personality. He Loves Sharks. 

Like I said I will have links to everything over on my blog if you want to pick up any of the items used for today's projects.

Copic Colored Beachy Cricket Bug

Hey everyone Jessi here from My Life in Arts n Crafts
Today I have another simple project for you. 
I cut all my pieces out of white 80# neenah Solar White cardstock and colored them with my Copic markers. I left the pieces on the cricut mat while coloring them, this made it easier to hold them down while shading them. Most of the pieces used 3 shades. For the background I swirled a bunch of blues for the water/sky and similar for the sand effect. I left the sentiment off my card until I'm sure who I am going to send it to. I like to do this as a way to stock up on cards to have on hand. 
I also added a few nuvo drops.
