A2 X-Card Dinosaur with Kathy

Hi Everyone, and Happy New Year!  It’s Kathy today with one of Lori’s new A2 X-Cards!  These cards are just adorable!  I fell in love with the A2 X-Card Dinosaur (here in the Silhouette Store) as soon as I saw it!  Take a peek:

How cute is that little dinosaur??  There are plenty of other A2 X-Cards  in Lori’s SVG Shop, including a Valentine’s themed Bundle!   That’s it for me today, thanks for stopping by to peek!

Stacking Card Dot Base Birthday Card with Courtney

Hello Lori Whitlock fans!!!!!! Today is my short tutorial on focal points. This is Courtney Lee from Court’s Crafts here using two of Lori’s cut files and her awesome “I Love Family” collection for Echo Park Paper to make a birthday card for my dad!

There is this “rule of the triangle” in crafting that is supposed to draw your viewer to whatever your focal point is: your sentiment on a card perhaps or the picture on a scrapbook page. So when I am designing I remember this “rule” but like they say in Pirates of the Carribean™ “They are more like guidelines anyway.” This one works for the triangle example though.

I created this look by doing four things to get my focal point across.

  1. First, I cut the smallest hole layer out of a lighter colored cardstock. This was actually a mistake. I meant to cut the most outside layer out of the white tone one tone paper, but I REALLY liked it afterwards. Score!

2. I used my sewing machine to create an “X” behind my sentiment but where you could still see it. This is the real “star” of creating the focal point on this card.

3. I used three enamel dots (tone on tone) to surround my sentiment. This isn’t a super noticeable addition but your brain notices it in the subconscious level and it draws the eye in.

4.  I used a contrasting color and a dark color for my sentiment. So the contrasting color to blue is orange and the dark is against the light background.

The “point” of the triangle is the top of these balloons. This was the VERY first cut file that I downloaded from Lori when I got on the Design Team. I LOVE these balloons and I am kind of a balloon cut file connoisseur. 😉

So there it is! In all of it’s glory! It’s one of those super simple cards that comes together very quickly but looks uber professional in real life. I hope you enjoyed my tutorial today on creating a focal point and I hope you have a VERY merry New Year!!!!!!!

Happy New Year

Anita here to share a New Year’s card with you.  I used Lori’s Happy New Year Phrase which you can find here in her store and here in the Silhouette store.  I used Lori’s Echo Park Collection called I Love Winter to complete my New Year’s Card.

Here’s a close up of the words.  I hope that everyone had a wonderful holiday and will have a great new year.

Hugs,

Anita
