Happy (inter) National Scrapbooking Day (weekend)! I am up on The Cut Shoppe blog with this layout using one of the free NSD cut files! Our challenge today is all about stitching! Here is my take on the challenge:
The free cut file from The Cut Shoppe is available here. I used it in my Silhouette studio software to create holes to stitch! I used Elle's Studio's Noteworthy collection -- the colors were perfect for these pictures! Here are a couple of close ups:
Hi Friends! I am up on The Cut Shoppe Blog today with a layout I made using a new cut file called Flutterby. I also used a bunch of Shimmerz Paints on my background and I love how it turned out -- here is my project.
I knew I wanted to use Paige Evans' Pick Me Up collection that I had just gotten in the mail from the Paper Issues Store, so I grabbed a bunch of Shimmerz products to match the colors in the collection. I used several Creameez, an Inklings, some Vibez, and a Coloringz! For a complete list, check the comments in the process video.
I actually cut this file twice. The first time I cut it too small -- so I cut it again. I used the larger piece for my main circle of butterflies. I cut three of the smaller butterflies out of the circle (with my scissors) and layered them on top. I love how that ended up working out!
I also made a process video, if that suits your fancy!
Don't forget, if you are purchasing any Shimmerz products, put my name (orange gearle) in the comments and you will get a little something extra in your order!
Thanks so much for stopping by and see you again soon!
Hi Friends! I am up on the {a flair for buttons} blog today with this layout about Spring Break! Here's my layout:
I used the Hello Spring cut file and the Up and Down background file from The Cut Shoppe as part of my title and my background. I think that Hello Spring cut file is one of my all time favorites!
I used a BUNCH of Shimmerz Paints to add a water color look to the cut file (for a full list of Shimmerz Products used, check out the description box in the process video). I used the Dear Lizzy Stay Colorful collection for my patterned papers (purchased from Paper Issues) and I added some gold elements with thread and alphas.
This piece of flair from the Inspirational Words 1 Flair fit the feel of the layout perfectly -- and I simply love the design. The flower and the text are perfection.
I also used these butterflies from Color Cast Designs March release. I love them. I should buy some more for sure. Here are a couple more close ups:
I also made a process video if that suits your fancy! The description box includes all of the Shimmerz Paints that I used on this project!
Thank you so much for stopping by -- and I'll see you again soon!
Hi I am up on The Cut Shoppe blog with my first layout for them as a member of the Design Team. I did a lot of hand stitching on this layout! Here is what I came up with:
I used two cut files for this layout. First I set up my Silhouette Cameo to cut holes in my card stock using the Dainty Doily cut file. For some reason when I saw this cut file I couldn't stop seeing rainbows -- so I stitched rainbows! I also used the Happy Clouds cut file
And here are a couple close ups:
I used Color Cast Designs Sunshine and Rainbows from the March Release as my title (and I painted it black)! I also used some flair from {a flair for buttons} for the perfect touch.
I made a video of my process if that something that suits your fancy!
