Hi everyone! It’s another Friday and time for some Digital Inspiration. I have another Calendar Topper ready for a 2017 Calendar!
I used Echo Park’s I Love Family Collection designed by Lori. The fall colors of this collection are fabulous for all your fall layouts.
Welcome Lori Whitlock Fans! It’s me Lezlye, with some inspiration for you. Surprise it’s not a card! Shocking I know! She does Scrapbook!
I had this adorable selfie my daughter took of she and her daughter, my granddaughter. It was so pretty I just had to document it using Lori’s new Fall designs with Echo Park Paper.
I tried to use a little bit of everything that coordinated with this line. That is the most wonderful thing about buying a whole collection, including the coordinating cardstock. You know everything will match!
I started off by die cutting my Doilies (they are so detailed) Then I cut the words. I used the chipboard stickers, decorative brads, washi tape, enamel dots and the larger heart on the camera was stamped in versamark ink and heat embossed with red sparkle powder.
Love the white pop on the burlap, adding that texture and the ribbon/trim are fun elements to add to a scrapbook page. I absolutely love the wood-grain paper!
Have a Great Day!

Anita here with a fun tutorial to combine two cut files to make a lip balm pumpkin. I came across this orange EOS lip balm when shopping recently and wanted to make a fall holder for it. I used Lori Whitlock’s Flourish Pumpkin cut file which you can find here in the Silhouette Store and here in the Lori Whitlock store. I also used the Lip Balm Monsters Cut file which you can buy in the Silhouette Store and in Lori’s store and adapted it to make it work with my orange EOS. How did I do this? Well let me tell you just how easy it is. I also used one of Lori’s new Echo Park collections called I Love Family.
You are going to want to open the Flourish Pumpkin cut file and put it on your mat.
You then want to ungroup the pumpkin so that you can move the parts around. Move the stem off your mat for now.
Add the monster cut file to the same mat.
Now you are going to want to make sure the monster cut files are selected and then you want to ungroup them.
Once you have ungrouped the files you should move all but the orange or green body piece off of the mat. I chose to use the orange, but you can use either for our purposes. Next you will select the body from the monster and release compound path. This will allow you to have the center circle be a separate piece from the body of the monster so that you can move it over onto the pumpkin.
Before you move the circle you want to remove color from the circle. Click on fill color and select the cross hatch design I have highlighted as that will remove the color. Move the circle from the center of the monster body to the center of the pumpkin. Cut your file and you will have a beautifully sized circle ready for any EOS lip balm.
I took some twine and curled it around a round tool after wetting it with some Stiffy, fabric stiffener and added that as an accent.
Lastly, open your EOS lip balm and carefully place the pumpkin center over the lip balm. I find that if you line up the indentation on the lip balm in the front of your design and hold it in place then it will come out perfectly lined up when you screw the cap on. This is a great little gift and you can make these out of any of your favorite cut files following these simple instructions.
Hugs, Anita
Hello out there in Lori Whitlock loving land!!! This is Courtney Lee from Court’s Crafts here!
Well, anyone who has been a follower of mine for a while knows that I LOVE shaped cards. Lori’s new release of shaped cards has me making every one!
Check out the tone on tone detailing. It’s really amazing!!! I took the heart that comes with it and stuffed it behind the layered die cut.
I brought this to someone’s housewarming and they met on a dating website with “coffee” in the name so this was SOOOO perfect.
Check out Lori’s new shaped cards and her I Love Family collection (that I used!) It’s AWESOME!

I Love Family for Echo Park by Lori Whitlock Collection
Hi everyone! Corri here today sharing my version of two of Lori’s new shape cards. I used paper from the Echo Park – I Love Family Collection that Lori designed.
The shaped cards are so fun to make and have a huge impact. All the work is done for you….just cut the layers and the cards go together in no time.
You can find the Pumpkin shaped card here.
I added a sticker from the collection for the sentiment and some foam dots to give the layers some dimension.

He’s so cute! By changing the color scheme, you could make this card for any season.
Head on over to the shop to see all the new files.
