Fun Team Vinyl

I had a friend order this University of Utah vinyl from me the other day and I loved how it turned out so I thought I would share it with you.  She is making them for Christmas gifts for her friends she is dorming with how cute huh?  I know it is late for Christmas gifts but this is defiantly something you could do all year with any team!!

I thought I would give you an update too.....we are having a little girl!!!  I am so excited my daughter will have a sister.  Every girl needs a sister, I know I love having one, my brothers just don't quite cut it all the time...ha ha!

I hope everyone has a very Merry Christmas!!!!

Do it yourself Christmas ornaments

My tree all the past years has been lime green and orange....yes I know odd colors but I get them at an after Christmas sale for so cheap.  I decided this year I wanted a Green and Red tree.... my orange ornaments are big ones....So I decided to spray paint them, glitter them and add rhinestones!!  You could really do this to any ornament as long as it has a smooth surface so the glitter and paint will stick!!

here is before....

I just used a spray paint that will stick to plastic

Once the spray paint dried I sprayed the ornament with a spray adhesive and sprinkled my glitter.  For glitter I found that the brand Sugar Coating worked the best.  Once the glitter was all over I sprayed it again with the spray adhesive to hold the glitter on a little better.

 I then added my rhinestones.  The believe above I purchased at a scrapbook store and for the star i just put them on like that myself!!!

 For this fun one I got double sided adhesive tape...again from the scrapbook store and added white glitter.  I love how much it added...and it is different!!

ENJOY!!!!

Christmas Crafts....

I have been a slacker...But I LOVE these wood crafts at Mary Berry!!  I love the simplicity of them but they are still so cute!!!  I will get working on mine soon!!!!

Photo tips....part 2

One of my favorite things to do it mix up the angles you take pictures from.  It can add some great dimension as well as a new look on a photo.

This photo is taken from standing over the subject!!  This is my little Princess, I just love her

 I love how this one turned out from behind, it really tells a story!

This one is taken from the side....I have to say this kid is so so so cute!!!

 I love photos taken in the distance that are not posed but straight on.  Sometimes a "in the moment" pictures tells more than a posed one!

Easy Last Minute Ideas

Here are some super fun easy Fall decorations for last minute decorating!!

Holiday Photo Tips....PART 1

I LOVE to take holiday pictures.  Probably for the fact that everyone is together and so much work goes into the prep and of course cause they are so so so fun.  I have taken a love to Photography, it is so fun to try new things and see what the result is!!

For my first tip:

Don't be afraid to Zoom in on the subject.....(now this doesn't always have to be true) but it can make a much more personal photo with less distractions.

 I know my child really really loves Santa...we will hope for different this year!!

You can check out my photography blog too if you would like!!
