Simply Gorgeous ~ Olivia's Baby Shower Blog Hop




Hi and Thank You for joining us on this super fun hop! Sandra from 365 Days of Cricut is due to have Baby Olivia very soon. So we thought what better way to celebrate than with A Baby Olivia Baby Shower Hop!

Ok so sit back, relax, grab a Diet Dr. Pepper or coffee and have fun!

For my project today, I decorated a onesie for Baby Olivia:
I started with my Gypsy.
I got the sentiment from Creative Memories Stork's Delivery and sized it to 3.12 inches.  I flipped it and cut it out of freezer paper.  I set my E2 to Light Paper.  When I use my Expression, I use 3-3-3.  Make sure to put the shiny side of the freezer paper up.

I bought a pack of onesies and some soft tulip fabric paint in hot pink.

I ironed on the freezer paper stencil shiny side down.  I added the inside cuts carefully so as not to burn my fingers!

I put a piece of chipboard inside the onesie and painted inside the stencil with a foam brush.

I peeled off the freezer paper.

Simply Gorgeous just like Baby Olivia!!





Thanks so much for helping us celebrate Baby Olivia!

Here is the line-up if you get lost!
