Before and After- Valentines Project

Hi Everyone!  I hope you are all having a fantastic day!  I got a few emails from lasts weeks project (Snowflake Plate) that I would like to answer.

 Can you use a plate that has vinyl to put treats on and how do you wash it?
*Yes, you can put treats and other goodies on a plate decorated with vinyl.  When washing, use warm (not too hot) water and DO NOT put in the dishwasher.

What can I do to take a vinyl decal off a plate that has already been applied?
*The easiest and fastest way to take off vinyl off an object is to heat it with a blow dryer until the edges start to curl up.


I also got an email wanting me to show a Valentine decorated plate and here it is:

 Don't you just LOVE it?  I sure do!  Can't wait to display it with all my other valentine decorations.

Be sure to check out EAD DESIGNS for tons and tons of adorable Valentine decals!

You can find the one I used HERE

See you back here Saturday for another fun vinyl project:)

Vinyl Snowflake Plate

Hi Everyone!  I hope you are all having a fantastic Saturday.  I wanted to share a fun project that I made in December and didn't post (It was a CRAZY month).
I like to have a holiday themed plate on my kitchen counter.  I had a cute snowflake one last Christmas but it broke :(  I decided to make my own.
I still wanted to stick with a snowflake theme, so I pulled out my Cricut cutting machine and some vinyl sheets from EAD DESIGNS.






After a few minutes I decorated a plain plate into something extra cute!  Now I need to make a plate for Valentines Day:)  I just am having a hard time trying to decide what cute Valentine vinyl decal to get from EAD DESIGNS because they are all too stinkin' cute!

If you need some vinyl sheets for your Cricut machine, check these ones out:

See you next Saturday with another fun home decor project:)

What I have been up to...

Hi everyone!  I have been the worst blogger ever this past month.  I have been so super busy with getting ready for Christmas, work, family parties and everything else that has been going on.
I went through a few weeks where I was just "crafted" out... I really thought I was going to be done with keeping up on my blog... but I have some really super exciting opportunities open up for this coming year and I can't wait to share them with you :)  I think I finally got my mojo back ;)  I have lots of projects that I will be posting in January as well as so other exciting stuff.  I will try to do more videos this coming year too.  If anyone has any projects or product questions that they would like me to demo, send me an email at inkingitupcrazy@gmail.com  
See you all very soon!

Last Minute Cheap Gift Idea

  Hi Everyone! I hope you are having a fabulous Saturday.  I know there is a lot of you that are doing you last minute Christmas shopping/ Christmas Crafting projects.  If you are like me, you are just STARTING your Christmas shopping TODAY.  
  I wanted to share a fun and cheap gift idea.  I always am having little unexpected gifts arrive at my door from neighbors and friends.  I like to have a little supply of handmade gifts on hand in cases like this.
  A few weeks ago I ordered a bunch of little jars on the internet and they just arrived this week (I was a little worried).  Anyways I used these jars, some hot cocoa mix and I used a bunch of my ribbon scraps that I have collected all year.  I put together these fun snowman soup jars :)
