Finished Object Fridays - Big Sister Shirts

Funny. It seems like when I was doing FOF every week or even every other week, I hardly had any projects to share... now - when I do it once a month - I have a hard time picking WHICH project to share!! This one wasn't too hard to pick though. Such a fun and exciting time for our little church family. We got to welcome a new little member! :) My friend Regina just gave birth to baby girl #4 a couple of weeks ago!! Welcome to Baby "D!" (or "Love" as she will be known here...)

Last year my mom, with her nose for bargains, found a Cricut machine at a local Goodwill. My sister and I snatched it up and we share joint "custody" of the machine. And.... since she's off at college, guess who gets to store it!! :)

A while back Melissa made these shirts for Brittany's boys. I had heard that this kind of project was easy with the Cricut, but I wasn't too sure until I got into it. (It is EASY, but even easier if you know how to run the machine... I'm learning!) :) I used this tutorial - great explanation!


So Regina came over one afternoon and we started working on these. I finished them up and made a little surprise for baby "D!" I also made bows to match.


Here they are posing with their shirts right after they got them:


And here are the three big sisters posing with the little sis!!

Yep... they are ALL smitten with this little one!!!

And wouldn't you be?? This is a picture I took of her just this week:

She's growing and changing so fast!!

Maybe you have a project to share? I'm excited to see what you all have been working on!!

~PS. Just FYI, Cricut doesn't know I exist... not an advertisement, just craftiness at work! :)
