Irish Unicorns?

Do your grand-daughters love all things unicorn?  Mine do and when I saw this unicorn bundle from Lori Whitlock, I HAD to buy it.  The bundle included a gable box which would be just perfect for St. Patrick's Day with a little Design Space magic.



I added shamrocks from Home for the Holidays, Anna's Seasonal Soirees, and CTMH Flower Market.  I imported ears from another Lori Whitlock file and welded them onto a diamond shape so they would stand up behind the shamrocks.  Lastly, I duplicated the horn and flipped it horizontally to make the horn golden and glittery from both sides.  Easy peasy!




There is a gable box in Tags, Bags and Boxes, and there is also a very similar unicorn image in DS by LoveSVG.  Check it out!

I'm linking my treat box up with the "Show us you Shamrocks" challenge at BBTB2 and the "St. Patrick's Day" challenge at FCCB.  It's always fun thinking up something a little different for the seasonal challenges!   Thanks for visiting on this sunny Saturday.  : )  Christine

The 101st Day of School

Today marks the 100th day of Kindergarten for Master J.  Despite the fact that I saw immense growth in my own K-Kids when I was a teacher, I am just amazed at how much Master J has grown socially, emotionally and academically.   What a sweetheart!  He and Mama designed a T-shirt to wear, but of course, Grandma had to give her Easy Press a work out and I designed a shirt to be worn tomorrow on the 101st day of school.  (A big shout - out to Charlotte C. for her enabling.  I LOVE this machine!) 





I used a dalmatian from Create a Critter, and the Carousel font for the number 101.  The "I survived" sentiment is cut from the Candice font.  The tally mark is a rounded card template, sliced, diced and welded together.  This was hardest part of the design and just in case you ever need it, here's the DS file.
