Beyond the scrapbook.

I love finding other uses for my scrapbook supplies, and digital supplies have opened a whole new world of possibilities. I created these onsies as a baby gift for my dear friend, Shannon. All the images are by the talented Nancy Kubo. When I saw these I thought they would make adorable iron-ons.

ETA: Pointers on iron-ons. I used the Avery T-shirt Transfers (#3271). Available at Wal-mart. Make sure that under your printer settings to change it to mirror image. There are complete instructions included in the packaging but I've found it is very important to trim as close to the image as possible. Leave just a very small border. Also very important to use a dry iron and a place a piece of fabric over your transfer when ironing it onto your t-shirt. I use a white pillowcase. Otherwise you may have scorch marks on your t-shirt. You need to use a hard surface (not your ironing board). I use the countertop in my studio. Hope this answers all your questions!

And I used this set to create the invitations for Elizabeth's birthday party this weekend.

I'm thinking she's going to need a shirt to wear, also! ;-)

So what can you do with your scrapbook supplies? I would love to see!
