Trick or Treat Crackers

I saw these great crackers on the SVG Cuts Site created by Thienly and decided to make them for my sons’ classmates for Halloween.



They were super fun to make! & EASY!

They are called Crackers and the SVG for the Cracker is actually a freebie from 12/9/10 on the SVG Cuts Website. Click Here for the link. Here are Step by Step Directions.

Step 1 - Cut the Cracker SVG Base
Step 2 - Ink the edges / trim edges with wavy scissors

Step 3 - Add a strip of paper - this one was run thru the Cuttlebug/Torn/Inked

Step 4 - Add another strip if you like - this one was a Cuttlebug Halloween FolderStep 5 - Tie off the one side & Insert Candy

Step 6 - Add a tag and tie off the other side



I also created this fun bingo card for my son’s Kindergarten Class. It has SVG images from SVG Cuts and their sight words. Fun & Educational! Add some candy corn as markers and yummy too.

Happy Halloween!

I won!

Tria Collage

I tried something different for my latest baby name collage. I used a 12x12 instead of the horizontal shadowbox. Seemed to work better with a short name. The three squares are placeholders for photos.


Here are a few closeups of the Creative Charms embellishments:


Background cuts are from SVG Cuts & font for Tria is called Lo-type Medium Condensed.

Have a great day! Amy

A Fall Wedding Invitation Collage

I just love fall and I just love how Creative Charms has the perfect products for my projects! They have a great feature on their site. You can sort by color. I sorted by Orange & Brown and it was so incredibly easy to find the perfect embellishments for my project.


I started with the invitation. Visited my local Scrapbook Store, The Crop Shop for the perfect paper. I try and pick some solids along with patterned paper. (Can't go wrong with Bo Bunny)

Frame is from Joanns. I cut the background papers on my Cricut using SCAL Software and files from SVG Cuts. I added dimension under the scallop shapes and invite and finished it off with my brown and orange goodies from Creative Charms.

A few closeups:

Try shopping by color on your next project - works perfect!

Take Care, Amy

More Bride Journals

A few weeks back I shared a few Bride Journals - I finished the entire batch and we attended the bridal show last week. It was so much fun & an exciting day.




The brides visited our booth and I gave them these journals. In some cases I had a journal that matched their wedding colors. Seems like Black and White Weddings are in store in 2011 - I’ll know to make more for the next bridal show!





My friend and business partner Leslie got into our photo booth with David Tutera from the reality TV show My Fair Wedding. Needless to say she was so excited!


Thanks for stopping by! Amy

Sharing a Collage & Thanks!

Now that I am working full time I don’t have as much time to create SVGs, Craft or even post to my blog. Thanks for continuing to visit my blog. I just glanced at my followers and can’t even believe I am 1 away from 200! WOW!

One of the greatest compliments that makes my day is getting a photo from someone who said they were inspired by one of my creations. Check out this beautiful collage by Shelly. Please visit her blog to check out her wonderful creations!


Thanks again for visiting.
