Fireball Cups

Hello all you crafty people!

Today I'm showing you a couple little gifts I gave

my girls for Christmas.

They have a resin business and sell at craft shows.

One day I was shopping with Jaryd and he found these little cups. 

They are bigger than a shot glass, but smaller than a 

regular cup.  They hold 3 oz.

They happened to have purple and teal, which are the 

Clumsy Cloud Gifts signature colors.

I picked them up for the girls so I could customize them.

On one side I put their logo.

On the other side I put the logo for 
Fireball.

Neither of them are big drinkers,

but it is their custom to have a shot of 
Fireball once they are home from a craft show.

These little cups will be perfect for that.

They loved them and they were easy to

customize with vinyl that I 

cut with my Silhouette Cameo.

Thanks for stopping in today,

I hope you've been inspired in some way.

Come again soon,

you never know what you'll find on 
Kristie Kreates!

 

2024 Shot Glasses

Hello crafty friends!

Today I have another Christmas gift that I made.

Every year I give my son in law, Brad, shot glasses

to add to his collection.

This year, I decided to do etched glass with 2 of his favorite

characters.

I know it may be hard to see Sonic on

this glass, it's very difficult to photograph 

glass and the etching.

But it is Sonic on this shot glass.

This one may be even harder to see, but it's 

Knuckles.  I know, literally, nothing about these

characters, I just made what my daughter told me

he likes.  LOL

He was happy when he opened them.
Now to figure out what to do for next Christmas.
This has become a tradition and I need to come up

with another idea, I'm running out.

Thanks for coming by today,

be sure to come again soon.

Until then, 

smile and bring sunshine to someone else.

 

Shot Glasses

Hi everyone!

I hope you're having a wonderful day.

Today I want to show you some etched shot

glasses that I gave my future son in law for Christmas.

He has a shot glass collection and loves the

Marvel characters.

I started by asking my local Buy Nothing Group if anyone

had clear shot glasses they no longer wanted.

(I've linked to the Buy Nothing Project site so you can

learn more about this and see if there is a group in

your area)

I got response from a couple people.  I only needed one

at the time, but it turned into a bigger project.
These weren't all what I was expecting, but I think they

will work out for a later project.
I did use the green one for this gift.

I also received these 6 glasses from another member.

They were perfect for what I was planning.

Using my Silhouette Cameo I cut stencils with 

vinyl, then applied the stencils to the glasses.

This one is the Captain America logo.

On the other side of the glass,

I etched the character's name.

Once the vinyl stencil was applied

I used Armour Etch etching cream.

It's simple to use, just follow the instructions

on the jar.

Here is the Avengers Logo.

And their name.  Sorry these pictures aren't

great, it's very difficult getting photographs of

etching on glass and the size of the names 

makes it difficult, but you get the idea.

Hulk is Brad's favorite character and the

green shot glass was perfect for that character.

These 2 pictures show the HULK 

that is etched on the back of the glass.

Brad was thrilled with this little gift,

even more so because I made them for him.

I'm glad you stopped by today, I hope you are too. 

 Come again soon,

until then,

give something new a try and

check on a Buy Nothing Group

in your area.  I highly recommend 

being involved in one of these groups.

I didn't necessarily purchase from these sites,

except where specified,

and you may find better prices elsewhere,

I am in no way promoting any particular site.
