Family Tee Shirts

Hello and welcome!

Today I have a few shirts to show you.

Every Christmas for the past few years, I've made

some shirts for my family.

These are 3 of the ones I made this past Christmas.

When I saw this idea, I had to make it for my son.

He has quite a beard and I knew he'd love it.

This is one I made for my grandson, Asher.

He is definitely "Seriously Handsome and Awesome"

I made this one for my husband, Dave.

He loves it and has worn it many times.

All these shirts were designed on my 

Shilhouette Design Studio program on my computer

and cut with my Silhouette Cameo from

heat transfer vinyl.

I pressed the HTV onto the shirts with an iron.

I have a heat press, but have found that an iron 

works just as well and is much easier and more

convenient.

Thanks for stopping by today to check out what I've

been creating.
I hope you will come again soon.

Until then,

create something fun!

and you may find better prices elsewhere,

Special Order Shirts

Good day!

When my cousin's wife messaged me and asked if

I could make some special order shirts for them

for Christmas, I was up for the job.

They needed 13 shirts all with different images

and names on them.

Each person has a nickname and that was to be

on the back of the shirt and on the front an image

to represent their name.

She gave me permission to create them with 

whatever I thought up, although they did give me

some ideas.

Here are a few of those shirts

This was for Sarah, whose nick name is 

below.
I love how it turned out.

The color is actually the color in the first picture,

don't know why it looks so different.

I don't really know if Babeless Chaps is some 

character or what, but these chaps was

the best I could do for this name.

They did turn out good though.

My cousin's name is Carla and we used to call her

Car all the time when we were young.
Her nickname is Car-Car.

She used to own a white Mustang convertible, so I found

one that I could create for her shirt and put

2 of them on the front of the shirt.

Shantelle  is called Shani.

They suggested this pop for her shirt.

I had never heard of it, but found pictures online.

It's a berry flavored pop that isn't sold in the US.

Another character I'd never heard of is 

Doop, but there were plenty of pictures online.

Apparently this character has to do with with

Marvel comics.

Sofia is called Soap,

so a bar of soap it was.

Thanks for stopping by today,

I'll have another post soon, showing

the rest of the shirts.

I hope you'll come back to see what else

I've been up to.

Until then,

have fun crafting, no matter what kind

of crafts you do.

 

Grand Kids Shirts

Welcome!

If you have followed me for a while, you might know

that I love to make tee shirts with HTV

(heat transfer vinyl) for my family for Christmas.

Today I'm sharing a couple of the shirts I made

for my grandkids.

Our granddaughter Marie is 5 yrs old.

She is pretty small and last year, in pre K she

was bullied because of her size.
I always tell her she is perfectly petite and

I thought this shirt would be perfect for her.
I love the saying and hope she will feel this way

about herself.

Asher loves Sonic, so I decided that

he should have a shirt with Sonic on it.

I think this will be a favorite to wear when he

visits Auntie Kelsie and Uncle Brad, as Sonic

is Uncle Brad's favorite character.  In fact he has

a Sonic tattoo on his leg.

Thanks for stopping in today, I hope you

are inspired in some way and will stop by again soon.

Until then,

enjoy crafting!

 

Barclay Family Vacation Shirts

Hello crafty people.

Sorry I haven't been posting lately, things have

been a little crazy around here.
Today I'm showing you some shirts I made for some friends.
They were going on their annual family vacation and 

wanted shirts for all 11 of them.
I'm sorry the pictures aren't the best, but you'll get

the idea.

This was on each shirt.

Here are the 3 generations of shirts together.

Our friends are the grandparents so they had

all three generations on their shirts.

Here's a closer look at their fish.
Fish was the "theme" of their vacation.

Their kids and spouses had the 2nd generation

of fish.

The grandchildren had the 3rd generation.

I loved designing and making these shirts.
But I did make it a big job for myself.

Between all 11 shirts I had over 250 pieces of 

vinyl to cut, weed and press onto the shirts.
It took a while, but it was totally worth the effort,

and they loved how they turned out.

Thanks for stopping by today to see what I've been

up to.  I hope you'll come again soon.

Until then,

make something fun!

 

I love Bubba Shirt

Hello crafty friends!

Today I'm showing you a shirt that I made for my

Grandson, Asher, for Christmas.

They have a pit mix whose name is 

Buster Brown.  Asher calls him Bubba and they

love each other immensely.

This isn't actually Buster's picture,

but it does look a lot like him.

Sara saw a shirt that said

I Love Bubba! and thought

it would be cute for Asher.

They didn't expect a picture on it though.

It turned out so cute and he looks

adorable wearing it.

Thanks for the check in.

I hope you enjoyed your time here

and will come again soon.

Until then,

tell someone, even if it's your pet, that you love them!

 

Crafty Girl Shirt

Hello everyone!

I hope 2024 is starting out well for y'all.

I'm sorry it's been so long since I've posted anything.

It was a crazy couple of months here with holidays

and such.  Then covid hit the family again.  Once that

was over we went on to something flu-like.
Hopefully, now I'm back again.
I have a little catching up to do, so some of these posts

might be a little out of season.

Today I'm showing you a shirt I made for Marie.

I got a larger sized tee shirt and made it into a crafting

shirt for her.  She loves her crafts and the shirt we have

has gotten a little small on her, so she was in need of

something new, to go along with the craft supplies 

we were giving her.

I created the design with my 

Silhouette Studio Designer Edition software and 

cut it with my Silhouette Cameo from 

Heat Transfer Vinyl.

The really fun thing is that the font I used is one that

Marie created herself.
Kelsie and Sara have started their own business,

with resin and hope to eventually have other

items to sell.  One of them is fonts for 

use with Silhouettes, Cricuts and such.
Marie made her own font and it's called

"Scribbles"

I love how this turned out and Marie loves it too.

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you'll come again soon.

Until then,

have fun crafting.

 

Asher's Birthday Decorations

Welcome!

Today I have some things to show you from

my grandson, Asher's, birthday party.

I love when Sara asks for help with crafty things.

I started off by making the invitations for the party.

It took a bit of figuring, but I loved doing it.

I think they turned out adorable.

Sara asked me to make a banner for Asher's high chair.

She showed me a picture with an idea and said to go with what

ever I wanted.  I found pieces of bright colored fabric at 

the Dollar Tree and just cut them into strips.

I tied a few of the strips together and 

attached the "ribbons" to them.

For the Cookie Monster and Elmo,

I printed out the pictures of them, fussy cut them,

then laminated them.  I attached them with
gourd pins

Here's our birthday boy in the high chair with his

Sesame Street banner.

Sara found a cute book for everyone at the

party to sign, so she asked me to make a sign for it.
This is what I came up with.
She sent me the little poem, but I have no idea

where she got it or who to credit it to.

The book started out on the gift table,

but it didn't stay there very long.

Everyone was happy to sign it.

She also wanted a sign to hang near the gift table.

She told me what she needed it to say and to 

have at it.  I had a ball!
I printed the Elmo and fussy cut him.

The number 1, I found a picture and printed it

inside a number 1 then fussy cut that.
All the letters and balloons were also fussy cut 

and glued to the poster board.

Sign with the "It's my birthday" board on the 

gift table.

This was one of my favorite things that I made.

A Happy Birthday banner with all different 

Sesame Street characters.  I love how it turned out.

These were my other favorites.

I love making customized shirts for the kid.

Mr One-derful 

was made using my Silhouette Cameo and HTV
I think it turned out very cute.

Here is Mr. One-derful himself with Mommy.

Abby Cadabby is Marie's favorite character,

so I made this shirt for her.

Here she is in her shirt.

Kelsie and Sara put together

these trays.
Cookie Monster was made with 

blueberries and blackberries with 

little cups of dip for his eyes.

Oscar was made with veggies and olives

with dip for his eyes.

Big bird was cheese and crackers.

Dip with little tomato slices and blueberries

for his eyes.

I thought they did a great job on 

the platters.

And last, but not least,

here is the card I made for Asher.

I used a die from Kokorosa Studio

(unfortunately, I can't find it on their site.)

I printed the picture of the characters and fussy cut them

to add to the front of the card.

The sentiment is one I have in my stash.

I thought it was perfect for his Sesame Street themed party.

The party was wonderful and we had a fabulous time.

Thanks for stopping by today.

I hope you have enjoyed your time here 

and were inspired in some way.
Come again soon, you never know what your find

on Kristie Kreates.
Until then,

just be creative!

BFF Breast Friends Forever

Hello!

"My girls" asked me to do some sweatshirts for them

to wear when they participated in the 

Susan G Koman Upstate NY More Than Pink Walk

held in October.
One of my daughter's closest friends (one of "my girls") was diagnosed with

breast cancer not too long ago.  She is only 27 yrs old

Colleen and the other 2 friends were all in her wedding

party and they walked together.
On the backs they had me put 
BFF
Breast Friends Forever

On the fronts they wanted the breast cancer ribbon.

Here are the 3 girls ready for the walk

2 Beauties ready for the walk.

Here is their team with Colleen,

they even took our grandchildren.

Kelsie giving Asher a bit of nourishment.
Both kids were dressed in pink for the day.

Isn't she beautiful?!?!

She is undergoing chemo treatments and will

be having a double mastectomy in February.

So far she is doing well and it determined to beat

this evil disease.

Thanks for stopping by today.

I hope you were inspired in some way and

will come again soon.
