Father’s Day Mower Box Card

Hello crafty friends! Aimee here with you today with another fabulous Father’s Day card! As soon as I saw the Box Card Father’s Day Mower (Lori’s SVG Shop, Silhouette) with the John Deere tractor I knew I needed to make it for my husband. He’s not a country guy but he loves his tractor for doing yard work!

For a little more dimension, I used some pop dots between the tractor and the insert card and the tree and insert card. This box card is absolutely adorable and I can’t wait to give it to him!

I adore this little tractor and have had the thought of making a larger cut of it to use on a scrapbook layout. I have quite a few pictures of my husband pulling our kids around in the cart behind the tractor or of my kids driving the tractor.

Thanks for stopping by today! Hope everyone is staying safe and healthy!

Accordion Fold Dad Card

Hi there friends! I am sharing a different take on the Dad accordion Fold Card (SVG, This file is coming soon to the Silhouette Store). The original is darling with the little tools but I have an outdoor loving father in law that will enjoy getting this camping themed card. I just love a card that that can be easily altered with papers and embellishments. I used the Summer Adventure paper collection by Echo Park Paper Co. This card will also fold flat and fit in a A2 envelope.

That’s it for me today! Thanks for stopping by!

Unicorn Cake Stitched Layout

Hi everyone!  I’m excited to share a layout with you today that I created with Lori’s 5×7 unicorn card.  You can find the file here in Lori’s SVG shop or here in the Silhouette Design Store.  I wanted to show you how to add stitching lines to your layouts with your sketch pens.  It’s pretty simple and it adds so much detail.

I first picked out my papers and then brought the file up on my screen.  I only need the cake, stand and flowers.  I un-grouped the file and grabbed what I needed, and then regrouped the remaining pieces.  Next, I enlarged the remaining pieces to 14.75 x 18.5.

 

Next I set up the stitching lines for the pieces.  I started with the unicorn face, but removed the eyelashes first by releasing the compound path.  I  cut the eyelashes separately.

 

When I add stitching with pens to my layouts, I almost always do an internal offset of .130, then change my line style to the second stitch design that you see in that window.

It’s easier for me to cut first, leave on the mat (don’t remove the mat from the machine)  and then go back and do the pen.  You can also do cut by line color.   Once you are ready to add the lines just insert your pen and change the setting from cut to sketch, and blade to sketch pen.  Next, let your machine go to work.

This next screen shots shows the flowers, cut three sets in different colors.  This is before I removed to main flower shape.  So you can see the detail you can get with the pens.  I added sketch lines to all my pieces except the eyelashes.

Check out the detail you can get. Love it!

I used Lori’s All Girl Echo Park collection and embellishments.  I added a few punched circles for a border and vellum circles.  It’s just the sweetest layout of my little grand baby!
