Not only can you fill the pants up with goodies, but the green beer bottles also open up so that you can stuff them full of your favorites too!

I am SO in love with these pants and these papers are so gorgeous too!!!

And if stuffing the pants and bottles weren't enough... you can also fill the shoes with more treats! This will also help to hold the pants up in place! And just look... aren't these the coolest looking Leprechaun shoes?! Man, whoever gets this treat bag will for sure feel lucky!

I love that glittered belt buckle! OK, have to share a funny story about the buckle... I actually had to rip it off and re-glue it in a different position. The way it was glued on before made the pants look a little too Lucky if you know what mean, hehe! ;)

Check out those papers!!! OMG! LOVE!!!

This Mug is such a great file! Fill it with treats for a birthday party or give it to your favorite guy as a cool Beer Mug gift box! With St. Patrick's Day coming up it would also look great as Green Beer Glass!

Cristiano's Baptism Cake | DIY Cakes


 Yesterday my husband I had the honor of becoming God Parents to the cutest little guy! May God Bless Cristiano and his Family!

Of course I wasn't going to pass up the opportunity to make a cake for this special occasion. It's a little different but I'm happy with the results ;)

Cristiano's Baptism Cake | DIY Cakes


Top layer - Vanilla flavored - baked in 9x13 inch rectangle

Bottom layer - Chocolate flavored - baked in an 11-inch square pan

The entire cake was frosted with vanilla buttercream icing and covered with fondant.

 I'm so used to creating round cakes that this square cake was a little challenging for me, guess I just need more practice with them, lol!

Illuminated 3D Paper I Love U Sign | SVGCuts

I just realized that two years ago today was my first blog post EVER! Hard to believe how far I've come... for someone technically challenged it makes me excited about all that I have learned and done these last few years! Yay me!!! Anyways, enough about me lets get to the post ;)

I'm really excited to share with you my latest SVGCuts DT creation! Inspired by the recent marquee craze, I thought I would try my hand at creating a Valentine "I Love U" sign! This project makes a great Valentine decor piece or a unique gift idea!

For complete instruction on how I created this project make sure you click HERE.

I love it when something I had envisioned actually turned out as I planned. It was actually quite easy and quick to put together too :)

Here is what it looks like when the room lights are turned off, and the LED lights are turned on.
 Love how it looks in the dark. Ooooo, Aaahhhh!

Illuminated 3D Paper I Love U Sign | SVGCuts Files

To create this look, I used a battery-operated string of LED lights and added a hole to the back panel, and strung them through! Clever right?! The coolest part is that this battery pack has a built-in timer that turns on every 24 hours and stays lit for 6 hours! I don't even have to touch it!!! A pleasant bonus as I found them at the dollar store...  Amazeballs, right?!

If you want to, the battery pack could easily be attached to the back and then the sign could be hung on the wall!

I hope you've enjoyed this project, maybe even inspired you to create your own LOVE or any other WORD sign for that matter!

Valentine Classroom Treats | Ink On 3 Files

Hey All!

Today I want to share with you a few Valentine classroom treats that I made for my kiddos friends and teachers. The files for this project come from Fleurette Blooms Valentine Be Mine SVG Kit and digital papers from Hearts a Flutter Paper Pack

Really easy to make and so easy to put together! I hope they are all gonna love it :)

I created this Valentine's sentiment using the Print n Cut feature of the Silhouette. Used a font I liked and just layered it on top of the digital paper before I printed it.

I also personalized the label on the coffee cup using the same technique.
I love this coffee cup! Perfect for filling with treats or storing a gift card to their favorite coffee shop.
