How to Personalize Scout Camp Trunk Using Vinyl

My son is heading out to summer scout camp and one of the things he needs is a trunk to pack all his supplies into.  Now the crafty mom in my knows he needs to label this trunk so he knows which is his at a glance.  The label needs to be able to stay put, not rub off, withstand high and low temperatures, and last for a few years.  Bring on the vinyl letters from Styletech Craft !!

Here is a video on how to cut and use Styletech Craft Vinyl.

I cut the vinyl letters from the glitter (blue and teal) and opal holographic (white) vinyl to write the name Morgan Reed using a Cricut for the top and bottom of his scout storage trunk.

This vinyl is so easy to cut with a Cricut, just set it and cut.  Hardest part is coming up with an idea and design to cut with the wonderful Styletech Craft vinyl!

I actually did 3 projects with this amazing vinyl.  My husband saw that I was cutting the  Styletech Craft Vinyl so he used the left over part of after I pulled out the letter to use as a stencil.

He then used spray paint to make his own labeled trunk!

I also played around with the vinyl on my tumbler and cut out a monogrammed letter E for Erin.  Super easy way to personalize my drinking glass!

Check out the video on how easy this tumbler was to make!

 Styletech Craft  vinyl is so easy to work with and the ideas of what you can use it with are endless!!

How to make Christmas Themed Resin Planner Clips

I love to make little embellishments, and resin and planner clips just seem like a match made in heaven!!  So I pulled out some fun little molds that would work for a holiday theme, plus I made a few of my own molds in the shape of a snowflake!!

Here is a video on how to make your own molds plus also create your own custom resin pieces with dyes and powders.

I first start with making my own mold for snowflakes.  I pushed a metal charm into the Amazing Casting Products Mold Putty and made a few of these.

I then started to pour various pours of Amazing Clear Cast Resin dyed with the liquid dye in Blue and Powder in Pewter and Gold to make some fun shapes.   I also used a clay mold to get a few other shapes.

This skate is one of my favorites as it had the gold at the bottom, but then I changed to colors of the resin with the dye to get the blue on top.  So fun!!

I also love this effect, I dusted the mold with the Gold powder and then poured the blue dyed resin into the mold and mixed it up with the stir stick.  It looks amazing from front where the gold dust was placed.

Now look at the back,  love this side even better!!  Not sure what I am going to do with this gem, but I am saving it for something!!

For most of the resin pieces I turned them into planner clips by gluing them to paperclips.  Look how fun they all are!

The rest of the clips I made are showed in the video, I made over 15!!

Fall Pumpkin Decor with Pastel Colors and Felt

I love to decorate pumpkins during the fall.  This year I felt like doing something a little different and go do with the traditional colors or feel of autumn or Halloween, I went with glam and princess!!

Here is a video on how to make these fun princess pumpkins.

I love the look of the Kunin Felt of the pumpkins, and not to mention the felt is made form recycled plastic bottles!!!  The felt looks soft and dreamy as flowers and leaves and they could not be easier to make since they work amazingly with wafer thin dies.  I love the colors of the felt, I chose the Kunin Premiumfelt in Lagoon, and then in the Classic Felt I used the colors of Baby Pink, Minty, Olive, and Lemon Frost.

Adding a bit of bling and twine just made these pumpkins amazing!!

The best part is I made these pumpkins using Dollar Tree foam and plastic pumpkins, a little but of paint and some fun embellishments and they are completely transformed into a fun Halloween decor item, or amazing Princess party decor!!
