Lots of Cards

Hello - Hope your weekend is a great one! I have some fun cards to share with you today. I created these using the SVG Cuts Five Minute Cards SVG Kit. Card making is easy with this kit.

First up is the I Like You Card. This one is perfect for a guy. I made this one for my son’s God Father.

I did not switch it up from the original one ~ just selected more masculine colors.

Here is a Thank You Card I made. The lettering is from the Thank You So Much Card and the flowers are from the Congrats Card.

And last but not least - here is my new Baby Card. I used the base from the SVG Cuts Kit and added some print and cut elements from the Echo Park Bundle of Joy Kit. I also printed out the papers from the kit. I added some Trendy Twine to accent.

Thanks for stopping by today. If you have not seen the SVG Cuts latest kit ~ here it is!

It’s the Farmhouse Kitchen SVG Kit. Such a great kit. I am a big fan of cool typography and just love the Menu Card.

 Have a great week!

A Shadowbox for Winnie

Hope you had a great weekend. I sure did! I was traveling for work all week so being home with my family was a perfect weekend for me! Here is a recent shadowbox I created for a coworker. Love the whimsical name on this one.

I used the pretty lace from from SVG Cuts Battenburg Lace and Crochet Trim SVG Collection. I have been using these goodies alot lately. Love to thread ribbon or twine thru them. The cute heart border is also from this collection.

I added some flowers from the Mother’s Garden SVG Kit.

Trendy Twine

Hi Everyone - Today is my last post as guest designer over at Trendy Twine. I really enjoyed creating projects using their wonderful twine. Those of you who are regulars here (thanks by the way for following my crafty blog) know I create alot of shadow boxes. It all started about 3 years ago when I made one for my coworker. It has spread from there and I've probably made close to a 100 shadow boxes for family and friends. They really do make a perfect gift for a shower.

Here is one I created using Trendy Twine!

Pick up a frame at Joanns or Michaels. (I get the white ones from Joanns)

I start out by taking a peek at the baby registry online - that will give you a good idea of what the color scheme and theme is. Then start cutting your elements. 

Once you have everything cut add foam tape or pieces of foam core under the elements to give it dimension. Afterall it is a shadowbox so make some shadows. I added Krazy for Kraft Trendy Twine to my project which was the perfect accent.

You can either hang this in the baby's room or purchase a holder at Joanns to display in the room.

I really enjoyed my time as the May guest designer ~ have a great Friday and long holiday weekend!

Summer Travels

My husband is a teacher and came home this week with a bunch of requests for teachers who are retiring. I always ask about their hobbies and he said his coworker Sharon is really looking forward to traveling. Well thanks to SVG Cuts I had the perfect project to make for her!

This little suitcase is from the latest SVG Cuts Kit ~ Summer Holiday SVG Kit.

It was really easy to put together and makes a perfect little gift holder. 

I used the Congrats from Five Minute Cards SVG Kit. I added some stitching and attached the luggage tag with Trendy Twine.

I also make some quick Thank You Cards for the Scout leaders. This time of the year I make alot of Thank you cards and this one is so easy and fun. It is from SVG Cuts ~ Five Minute Cards SVG Kit. I am loving the Authentique Papers - it is from the Carefree Line. I accented with some Trendy Twine and used by Epiphany Craft tool.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great week.
