It's been a while!

I just realized that this is the longest I have gone without posting since I started my blog!  WOW!  Well, I have been busy, but the projects I'm working on right now are longer ones.  I have a couple more baby shirts coming in the next couple of days, but they are still a work in progress.

Here was a quick project I did today, and it is courtesy of a free SVG I found on the web for MTC.  Just Google "chess pieces svg" if you want to find it, because I truly do not remember where I got it, sorry!  So, here is the story on this.  My boyfriend absolutely hates his first name, which is Jason, so he goes by his last name, which, obviously, is Bishop.  He likes it so much that he got the bishop chess piece tattooed onto his right upper arm.  Therefore, when I found this SVG, I immediately knew what I wanted to do.  I used a free font called Black Forest, cut the vinyl, used Armour Etch, and here it is!  PS - photographing an etching is NOT easy.  I had to hold this up to a light fixture in the dining room to get it properly!  Anyway, thanks for visiting, and I have lots more coming this week!

Pro Bowl Sunday

OK, so I'm not a big fan of the pro bowl, but since several of my Denver Broncos are in it this year, I figured I would post this plate I etched in honor of them today.  I used MTC for the image, and then used Armour Etch cream, letting it sit for about 20 mins.  Getting a good picture of it was tricky, so please ignore the white sheet of paper behind the plate!  Thanks for visiting!

Etched mug

In honor of the NFL championship games today, I figured I would post a mug that I etched for my boyfriend, who is an Eagles fan.  I used MTC for the image, and Armour Etch cream.  The mug was from Wal-Mart, of all things!  Hope this picture shows up well enough.
