Sweet Baby Girl Bottle Card and Diaper Bag by Aimee

February 26, 2018February 23, 2018

Hello crafty friends! Aimee here with you today and I am so excited because this is my 1^st Lori Whitlock blog post! I am still over the moon to be joining this team of amazing crafters and working with Lori’s amazing cuts!

Today, I am sharing this card/gift bag for a sweet baby girl. I used the Diaper Bag (here in the Silhouette Store) and the Baby Bottle Shaped Card (here in the Silhouette Store) along with the beautiful new Lori Whitlock Sweet Baby Girl collection. We have had 2 new sweet baby girls born into the family within the past 3 months!

This card is just adorable and came together quickly! I had it put together within 5 minutes and then came the fun part of decorating it! Every piece of this card came from Sweet Baby Girl collection with the addition of some Doodlebug twine and button.

Same thing for this sweet little diaper bag…it came together quickly! I used small amount of glue to put the box together and to adhere the “diaper” pieces to the front, back, and sides, and then a couple of pearl brads to attach the handle. I don’t know of any mom who wouldn’t love to receive this sweet little set!

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

Baby Mini Album with Anita

February 8, 2018January 30, 2018

Hi Everyone:

Anita here with a fun tutorial to make this mini baby album. My brother’s girlfriend just became a grandmother of a beautiful baby boy and I made this album for her to fill and to share with her friends.

This is a photo of the cut file. It is called Baby Layered Mini Album and you can find it in Lori’s store and in the Silhouette Store. I mixed and matched some wonderful collections from Echo Park to make my album including A Perfect Winter, A Perfect Autumn, A Perfect Christmas and I Love Family. I bought 1.5 inch colored rings from Amazon for the album.

I decided that I wanted each page the same print/color so I used the replicate function on my Silhouette to mirror the left tabbed page to the right so that I could glue them together to create a heavier page. I then cut both pages from the same paper and adhered them back to back.

I then used the rectangle tool on the left side bar to create a white piece to be a photo mat. I like to put the item I am trying to match the size on my mat.

Here is the sized rectangle on my mat.

Here is a photo that shows the other rectangles that I created for the pages of my album. I then cut two of each for each page of the album.

I used Lori’s font called Wide Marker at the 56.0 font size and moved them on to the bottle to see how it would look.

Here are the pieces for my album.

There you have it. This worked up very quickly and it so cute. Can’t wait to send it off to it’s recipient.

Hugs,

Anita

Snowbirds! with Michelle

January 15, 2018January 14, 2018

It is so cold outside! The cold and snow inspired me, Michelle, to create these little snowbirds.

You can find the SVG files for this tiny 4″ birdhouse at the Lori Whitlock SVG Shop and also at the Silhouette Design Store. In the files, you’ll notice that the branch has leaves. With my Silhouette Cameo, I used the knife tool to remove the leaves because we won’t be seeing green for months!

I made some snowflake embellishments to keep the little birds company in my large vase. Lori has designed many gorgeous snowflakes, but this one is my favorite. You can find the set at the Lori Whitlock SVG Shop or at the Silhouette Design Store. Using Echo Park’s A Perfect Winter paper, the snowflakes cut perfectly each and every time. Adding glitter was a fun way to make them sparkle!

I hope that I have inspired you to create something fun today.

Stay warm! This weather is for the birds.

Christmas Card Mini Album with Brandie

January 11, 2018January 10, 2018

Hi there! Brandie here with a tutorial on how I made this mini album for my Christmas cards. I have been wanting a cute way to display the Christmas cards I get every year and this little album will do the trick. I used the Mini Album Rounded Corners file you can find it here in Loris shop and here in the Silhouette Store.

After I uploaded the file to Cricut Design Space I resized everything so that my largest cards would fit. For this album it is 6.8 inches tall by 10 inches wide. To get the correct proportions for all the pieces select all then use the arrow corner to enlarge everything.

Once I had everything cut I added my decorative panels. I also decorated the fronts of my albums with the papers and embellishments from Echo Park’s A Perfect Christmas collection.

Then I glued my Christmas cards to the pages.

I placed the binding cover and tied them with tulle.

Now every Christmas I can pull them out and look back to see how family and friends have changed over the year as the new cards come in.

Thanks for stopping by!
