Baby Crib Box Card for Olive

Hello friends!

Today I have this adorable Baby Crib Box Card to share with you that I made for some friends of ours to celebrate little Olive's arrival. This card comes from SVGCuts Tiny Miracle SVG Kit. Felt like forever since I last used my Silhouette Cameo to create something and I think I was really missing it!

Well, whatcha think!?
CUTENESS, right!!!
I hope her parents will love it too 😍

I can't believe I hadn't used this file sooner. It makes the best baby card!

Like I mentioned earlier this file comes from the Tiny Miracle SVG Kit, I did however change it up a little by adding the baby's name to the front rather than using the baby blocks that the file comes with. To personalize the card, I used some metal letter dies from MFT and did some partial die-cutting. I also used the Darling Baby Stamp and Die set from Simon Says Stamp to finish the back panel of the card. I guess I did sacrifice the writing space on the back to use the cute die, but I did just attach a little love note to the card 😉

As you can see the card folds flat for mailing.

First Day of School Teacher's Gift Card/Holder | SVGCuts

Hi guys!

Just wanted to share with you all the card I will be sending along with my kids for the teachers on Tuesday. This year they have a late start, probably because they went until the very end in June! Whatever the reason I am so grateful for the last few days!

So here are the First Day of School Teacher's Gift Cards I made! What teachers wouldn't love to receive these cuties?!

Here is what they look like on the inside.

I created some cutout tabs on the inside offset layer (3.5 inches apart) just make sure when you glue the layer down you don't glue them down! I also created the card using the bottom (yellow) layer by welding the flipped image of it together to create the base of the card. See the image below for the pieces I used to make the cards ;)

Here is a close-up so you can see the embossing, inking, and other embellishments! Backpack blues stamp comes from Craftin' Desert Divas School Zone set. Thought it was the perfect sentiment for teachers on their first day back ;)

Files for this card are a mash-up from SVGCuts, Miss Baker's Classroom SVG Kit.

Hope my little back to school creations, have inspired you to create gift cards of your own :)

Paper Lantern Card Birthday Card | SVGCuts

Hello, my Crafty Friends!

Today I have a Paper Lantern Card to share with you all! The files come from SVGCuts latest kit Spring Blossoms. Perfect timing on their release... Just so happens one of my amazing friends who happens to be Chinese celebrated a birthday a few days ago. So I thought this would be the perfect card for her ;) Happy Birthday Ling, Ling!

Anyways, let's have a look at the card I made her :)
This card is SO pretty and super quick to put together!

The stamp I used comes from Craftin Desert Divas, Simply Said Stamp Set.
I also used some Trendy Twine on the lanterns.
And, for a pop of color, I added touches of gold using some paint markers.

Hope you enjoyed my Asian theme inspired Paper Lantern Card :)

Lucky U - Shamrock Treat Box | SVGCuts

Have you seen the latest SVGCuts, Feeling Lucky SVG Kit? If you haven't, you must!!! It was SO worth the wait :) Check it out HERE!

I immediately fell in LOVE with the Shamrock Box, and of course, had to drop everything and make it right away! Usually, I wait for Mary's how-to videos to see how to put it together, but I really couldn't wait,  LOL! It took some figuring it out but it all came together nicely :)

I added some elements from the other pieces of the kit and made it my own, so many possibilities here. The stamp I used comes from Craftin' Desert Divas - Happy Celebrations set.

Hope this has inspired you to create some St. Patrick's Day projects of your own. Anyone receiving this will surely feel "LUCKY"!

Pine Tree Paper Camping Scene Lamp and | Camp Lamp | SVGCuts

Hey Guys! SVG Cuts is having another Facebook Challenge, this time we are to create our version of the lamp from Maison de Madeline SVG Kit. Since we just ended the longest winter ever here in Edmonton, Summer has been on my mind... which led me to create this "Camp" lamp! 

This may be one of my favorite creations, love how it all came together! I'm always amazed at what paper and a little creativity can do!

Unfortunately, this project will NOT be entered into the Challenge as I got a bit ahead of myself. I got halfway through it only to realize that when I read the challenge rules a bit more closely, it did not qualify as I modified the lamp shape :( 

Oh, well... Lamp FAIL! I'm not too heartbroken though, my son fell in love with it as soon as he saw it... the only problem so did my daughter! I guess I may be making another one, lol! This would also make a great Father's Day gift for the Outdoorsy Man in your life!

Here is a closer look at the campground ;)

Isn't that Teepee the cutest thing ever? It's even functional too. Lift off the top and the base can be filled with little goodies!

Here is a birds-eye view from above...

My favorite part of all is when the tree is all lit up. Instead of using battery-operated tea lights, I used battery-operated LEDs, that I had purchased at the dollar store (the kinds you push down to light up a small closet). Since I used 3 of them, they actually do light up the room. I did use a tea light in the Teepee to give it a soft glow. I love the lit tree... reminds me of the sky at night. 

Recipe for Camp Lamp:

Lamp file comes from Maison de Madeline SVG Kit 

First I enlarged the whole lamp, then I created the middle and top shade slightly smaller than each other. Welded a triangle and tab to the top shade to create the point on the tree. Finally, I added the holes (circles) to the lampshade. (I didn't do this but, I would recommend you cut at least 2 or 3 pieces of the lampshade base for each tier. I think that would make the tree a little stronger)

The tree measures about 20 inches tall.

Teepee file and fire comes from Camp Smore SVG Kit

The Rowboat comes from Picnic in the Park SVG Kit

Modifications to the files done on the Silhouette DSE, all cut on the Silhouette Cameo.

For the base of my lamp, I used an unfinished wood picture frame (I need something strong and sturdy). Covered it up with cardstock and finished the edge with washi tape.

There you have it! The possibilities are endless... I'm sure I'll be making a few more of these trees for Christmas time... maybe even a Christmas scene! Oh, the wheels are turning... 

Well, onto my next project... SVG Cut Facebook Lamp Challenge... wait, didn't I do that already, he, he! Oh, oh, here we go again ;)

Thanks for coming by :)

3D Letters Lowen | Baby Shower Gift and Decoration Piece

Happy Friday Everyone!

So happy with how they turned out! Love the colors they scheme they chose for me to work with! 

Welcome to the world baby Lowen!

Here are some closeups of the establishments I used on the letters. 

The files for the 3D letters come from here. The paper I used comes from Recollections open card stock from Micheals, all cut with the Cameo.

Hope you liked this project!

Witch Boots | Halloween Treat Boxes

Happy Halloween Everyone!!!

This year for treats I thought I would make this witches boot. I had bought this file on the Silhouette Online Store and had cut all the pieces for it, but life, as usual, got busy and only tonight did I get to finish them up. Nothing like waiting until the last minute, lol! I slightly enlarged the file, but now I kind of wished I had enlarged it some more, as they are kind of tricky to put together when they are this small! Update this file is no longer available. Here is another "NANNY" boot file that could be used as a Halloween boot. 

Aren't they soooo cool?!  They actually can fit quite a bit of goodies. I also like that they can fit a full-size chocolate bar... and even extra candy in the front part of the boot :)

Here is a closer look! BOO! Did I scare you? Maybe those eyeball chocolates did, kinda creepy, aren't they?!

Just put it in a treat baggy, wrap it up and it's all ready for a very special little goblin!

I hope you like my "Boots!" Have a fun Halloween!

Happy Haunting & be safe!
