Easter Cuties with Guest Designer Brigit Mann!

Hello everyone!  It’s Brigit from Brigit’s Scraps, I’m so excited to be guest designer here today.  I was on Lori’s Creative Team a couple of years a ago and had the best time.  I love creating projects with Lori’s cut files, they are truly some of my all time favorite files to work with.

With Easter just around the corner I thought this shaped bunny card with shaker basket would make a cute gift set.

I used the bunny and carrot from the Easter Icon Set (here in the Silhouette Store) and the sign and pole from the Fishing set.  I placed all the files how I wanted them in Silhouette Studio Designer Edition and then did an offset.  I cut out two of the offsets and scored straight across both ears about an half inch down on one of them.  I then glued the two layers together above the score lines to form my base card.

 

This shaker basket (here in the Silhouette Store) is just darling and it’s so simple to put together, I love it!  You just need to glue the bottom and inside liner, the brads hold the sides together.  All the paper used is from Doodlebug Design.

Hope you have enjoyed these projects, thanks so much for stopping by and have a wonderful day!



For Peeps Sake with Lezlye

Happy Spring! Lezlye here today! When I start seeing” Peeps” at the store I know that Spring is here. Now if the weather would cooperate and be as bright and cheery as this card I would be a very happy girl!


I modified Lori’s row of peeps, by cutting them apart. I wanted to be able to make several of these cards to send out to some of my crafty friends. I chose to use Lori’s  Echo Park collection Celebrate Easter for my papers. I love to layer pretty patterns and solids. So bright and fun! I added some iridescent cording behind my popped up peep and also some iridescent shreds for sparkle.

 

Hope you enjoy!
That’s it for me today!

Carrot Box Card with Courtney

Hi cut file lovers! It’s Courtney Lee from Court’s Crafts here to share with you this DARLING Carrot Box Card for Easter!

My printer broke (no joke) as I was trying to print and cut the darling sentiment that goes on this card. So instead I used one of the stickers that came with this collection and I just LOVED how it turned out!

Aren’t the layers sweet!? I just hadn’t gotten my “carrot patterned paper” fill yet and had to get a lot in there. 🙂

Isn’t that green polka dotted paper sweet!? I used everything from the Celebrate Easter collection by Lori Whitlock for Echo Park Paper.

Thank you for looking, happy Monday, and I hope your day is a little brighter!

Digital Inspiration with Ashley

Happy St. Patrick’s Day!  I love this day even though I’m not Irish nor do I drink.  But I love the fun of wearing green and luck and shamrocks.  I am planning to spread some of this green fun this year to some friends and neighbors, so I made a Digital card to share.  I sized it 4×6, so that I can print right to photo paper.

I used Lori’s St. Patrick’s Day Collection and the Dreamy Font.

I’m planning on serving corned beef tonight along with lots of green food. Have a fun weekend.

Early St.Pat’s Day Wish with Lezlye

Happy early St. Pat’s Day! These center box card files are so much fun. They make for a nice stand up card on someone’s desk or table.

I love the print and cut sentiments that come with the cards!  Here is the process for print and cut using Cricut. First you need to ungroup your images. Then select the whole sentiment piece and click attach.  In addition, click the scissors and change it to print.

When you select cut,  Cricut will prompt you to put your paper in your printer to print.  When printed, place this paper on your mat when prompted to cut.  Print and Cut is a nice feature !  Could you imagine cutting and gluing all those little letters?

These are all the pieces of the card cut out. I added some inking and Stickles,  then easily put it all together.  If you need more help with the assembly, you can see Lori’s Center Box Card Tutorial here.   The papers are from a few different Echo Park collections, designed by Lori.  I’ve listed them below.

I hope you’ll head on over to Lori’s Shop and give these a try! They do make you smile and you could make someone else smile by sharing your creation with them.

Have a great Day!
