..:: be the light ::..

Hi Fiends! I am up on The Cut Shoppe blog with a one file -- two projects post!  Today I am using the Be The Light cut file for two off the page projects. Here are my projects!


Here is the Be The Light file?


The word I chose as my "word" this year is Light!  When I saw this cut file I wanted to plaster it on everything!  I settled for two things (so far). I used vinyl to make myself a skin for my computer. I cut out the center of the lightbulb in yellow for extra pop!

I also made a t-shirt that I will wear proudly!!!

Thanks so much for stopping by. I hope I have inspired you to look at using cut files not just for paper projects -- but also to take it off the page! XO o.g.

..:: totally clawsome ::..

Hi Friends! I am up on The Cut Shoppe Blog today with a layout using the Photo Album cut file. I shrunk down the file so that it wasn't a full page -- and I made my photos about 2x2 inches. Here is a look at my layout :


And here is a look at the cut file : 


I backed the cut file with papers from Pretty Little Studio's Document Life Collection. I love these bright colors!  I popped up each of the photos with some craft photo to add dimension.




I added some banners to just about every photo. These banners are from a cut apart from the Bohemian Dreams collection also by Pretty Little Studio. 



I used a hexagon punch to embellish to my layout. I made three clusters with these, using all the colors!  I added tangled thread through out for texture and more pops of color!




I printed my journaling on photo paper and cut it into strips! I also made a video of my process, if that's something that suits your fancy!


This was a fun one to put together! I hope you are inspired to create with this cut file. Thanks for stopping by! XO o.g.

..:: favorite circles ::..

Hi Friends! I am  up on the {a flair for buttons} blog today with this layout using three pieces of flair from the Geo Love Flair Set. I am using mostly Pinkfresh Studio papers from the Flyover States July kit from Paper Issues.


I started by formatting my photo in Photo Shop so that it was shaped like a circle and just under 3 inches. Then I used my 3 inch punch to punch my photo out with a bit of a white border.



The Pinkfresh studio paper from their Office Hours collection had tons of circles on it -- so I punched them out as well using my 1, 1.5, and two inch paper punches. I also punched some tiny circles that I'm going to guess are 1/2 inch or smaller! I splattered some inks for pops of color, and then I sprinkled the circles across the page and added my flair! I mean you cannot have a circle layout without flair, right?



This flair matches the colors of this collection perfectly!



When I shared this photo as an instagram post I titled it "some of my favorite circles", which became the title for this layout. I made a video of my process if that's something that suits your fancy!


Thanks so much for stopping by! See you again soon! XO o.g.
