I'm such a slacker! (Or just really busy...)

Ok, so I didn't manage to get around to making that tutorial video I mentioned in my last blog post. I still plan on making it, I just have to get all my supplies together and then find some SUNLIGHT to record it. All we have seen around here lately is rain, and my craft room is in the attic, so no possibility of bringing in extra light or anything. Bummer. I actually have a list of videos that I will be bringing to you, including some projects of what to DO with the alcohol ink tutorial that I previously posted, some DIY shimmer mists, alcohol ink blending tool (yes, you CAN make one yourself, and for much less than they cost at the craft store. I made 6 for about $8, and had plenty of extra blending felt to change out my colors every time I needed to,) and anything else that I think might be fun or handy to anyone else. I MIGHT even throw in a tutorial for making your own SMASH-like book, if I can make it fit into my schedule. :)

In the meantime, here is a tutorial that I posted a long time ago, how to make your own custom alcohol inks. Enjoy!

Sorry about the lack of posts, folks. That thing called life really gets in the way sometimes! I post to my pinterest boards quite frequently, since I can do that on the go, even at work, or on drives downstate, so feel free to follow me there at www.pinterest.com/mommylester. Speaking of Pinterest, here is an SVG of the logo and title for the popular website. Enjoy!

Find the snitch!

Hey guys,

Sorry, I'm totally flunking in the blogging department. It doesn't seem to matter what I do, I just can't get into a groove of writing regularly. I guess I really need to work on that some more. Anywho, I have an alpha for you today. I have been in a Harry kind of mood lately, and 1001fonts.com has this LOVELY font based on the book covers called Lumos, and it's freeware! So I thought that I would make you a set of letters and numbers to cut and use in your scrapping projects. :) Click here or on the image to download. Enjoy!

I don't know where the original image came from, there are hundreds of them when I pull it up on Google, but I took this Star Wars Coffee image and made it into an .SVG cut file so I can make a cup for a friend, and thought that I would share it with everyone. :) Click the picture to download.

A nerdy tumbler for each of the three of us managers at my job.

I didn't have the patience to weed the fine print, so I left it at the logo.

He didn't mind.

 

Considering we named our youngest after the show, it's safe to say that Firefly is still one of my favorite TV shows ever made.

 

And of course someone had to have a superhero crush, the Bat signal. 

{This is the BEST way to make a cherry Coke- concession stand cherry slushie, and ice cold Coke, fresh from the fountain. I like it better with regular Coke than I do with Cherry Coke. Blue raspberry slushie is also, surprisingly (the color, I think) tasty in Coca Cola classic.}

Just a quick freebie- Doomsday Preppers Logo

Hey, I just wanted to share a quick file that I made with you guys. My husband and I love this show- it's just so interesting. lol. We are actually hoping to start homesteading ourselves, for self-sufficiency, especially with prices on just about everything skyrocketing the last few years. Anyway, here is the logo, for your cutting needs. :)
