Circuit explore t-shirt creations

So I received a Cricut Explore for Mother's Day from little man and the husband. I also have one of the very first Cricut machines and owned a Sizzix machine way back when.  I will say they have come a long way.  With the Explore I was able to electronically link all of my cartridges. You can connect to the website anywhere to work on your projects. All you do is connect your Cricut with the USB cable provided.  There are also settings for the depth of the blade that are much simpler than changing the dial position.  Set the dial to paper, vinyl, card stock, fabric, etc. It is pretty simple. We have a subscription to Circuit Design Space. It is well worth the money if you are going to use your Cricut often. So here are some shirts I've created so far.

The shirt above was a shirt I made for a friend's daughter, and the one below is the shirt I made for my friend. Everything from the shirt above was from Cricut Design Space. I actually found a monogram font for my friend's shirt. I bought both shirts at Hobby Lobby for about $3-$4.  The heat transfer vinyls above we're bought online while the black, sparkly heat transfer below can be bought at any craft store that sells Cricut. just make sure it is heat transfer and not just vinyl.  It was pricy though, and no coupons can be used on Cricut products. I think it's around $17.  FYI:  Heat it for a good, long while with the iron. I always put a towel underneath the shirt, a kitchen towel in between the shirt, and a pillowcase on top of the vinyl. also, read the directions carefully, and don't forget to check reverse image before you cut. 

The shirt below was a shirt for my friend's son. 

The shirts below were created using a pocket template (online), an anchor (online search), and a font from Design Space. I bought the chevron iron on fabric from Hobby Lobby as well as the white vinyl and the shirts.
