Hot Fun in the Summer Time part 2

Flannery took the big girls to check out the Navy Pier, but seeing as it's 90+ degrees outside, I stayed home with the littles. I sent them outside to play and they quickly figured out what they wanted to do. Plastic bowls, wooden spoons, grass and leaves plus the hose made for a fun morning.

More Silhouetting-This time for a verrrry special goddaughter.

Dear Maeve,

We love you.

You are sweet.

You are tough.

You are fun.

But. you. are. trouble.

Mary Larkin and I decided you needed a cute shirt. And instead of a four shirt for your approaching birthday, we thought we'd celebrate your spunkiness. (Is that a word?)

We used black heat transfer from Silhouette.

(and by 'we' I mean 'me' of course)

Then we modeled a bit so that we could show the blogging world how cute it turned out.

Mom, can I touch it?  Does it really stick?

Oh, Mary Larkin, it sticks so well that the inside of the e that I weeded out (official Silhouette phrase, trust) got stuck on the underside of the shirt during the ironing process.

But Maeve will never notice because all she'll see is a CE-YOOT fun new shirt celebrating her.  WE LOVE YOU MAEVE!
