Doodlebug Design Cut File Feature: Easter Express

Hi Everyone! Today I’m showcasing another fabulous project using Doodlebug Design’s cut files! This adorable Carrot Banner was created by Wendy Sue Anderson for Doodlebug Design.

 

Wendy used the Carrots File  from the Easter Express Collection to make this banner.

This would be such a cute way to decorate for Easter!    For more views, see the original post here.   New Doodlebug Design SVG files are being added to the Lori Whitlock SVG Shop on a regular basis, so stop by to see all of the fun SVG files HERE!

Have a great day!

 

Mini Wreath Place Setting Tutorial with Michelle

With family so far away, our Easter Dinner is a quiet gathering where we use our everyday plates. This year, I (Michelle) decided to make dinner fun with some Mini Paper Wreaths.

Lori Whitlock Easter Rabbit Place Setting Svg

Making the mini wreaths was fairly easy with my Silhouette Cameo, but I have a couple hints and tricks to make it really easy! I started with Lori’s Circle Monogram Frame (Silhouette Design Store or Lori Whitlock SVG Shop) to make the wreath. This is possibly my favorite SVG file. The wreath is actually 6 seperate pieces. Since I am making a small wreath, I’m going to release the compound path and make all of the leaves filled in, which is easier for me to cut.

Release Compound Path

I’m also going to cut a 5-inch circle to fit my plate. (Hint: When making a circle hold down the shift key and your circle will be perfect each time.) I recommend cutting three or four monogram wreaths to make your mini wreath nice and full.

Next, I cut some BRAND NEW Bunnies. This Easter Bunny Silhouette is absolutely darling! I love his little tail cut-out. He’s new in the shops and you can find him in the Lori Whitlock SVG Shop and the Silhouette Design Store. I cut two 4-inches bunnies and glued them back to back, but one would’ve been enough. I wanted to add a cute sentiment, and I found exactly what I was looking for in the Bunny Dingbats Font. You can find this in the Silhouette Design Store and the Lori Whitlock SVG Shop. You will find additional bunny silhouettes in the font. They would be cute too. With the bunnies so small, I had trouble getting the sentiment cut cleanly with paper, so I used vinyl instead. It came out perfect the first time!

Yes! Paper crafters can use vinyl too! I love how it came out.

I topped off my wreath with a cute paper bow found in the Silhouette Design Store or at the Lori Whitlock SVG Shop and my project was finished. This would be a great project to try new techniques such as releasing the compound path and using vinyl. if you would like even more information, I would encourage you to check out Lori’s class on Craftsy. With the class, Lori explains numerous techniques for getting the most out of your Silhouette Cameo.

I hope that you’ve enjoyed my Mini Wreath Tutorial. Happy Easter!
