12×12 Easter Bunny Page

Hello friends! Traci here and today, I have a cute 12×12 Easter scrapbook page to share with you. I made it using two of Lori’s pretty cutting files and lots of colorful papers. Since Easter is this Sunday, I thought a fun layout would be perfect for a few holiday photos of coloring eggs. Take a look …

This sweet bunny rabbit is the star of this page! I just 🩷 her little flower crown. So, let’s start with her …

I used Lori’s adorable 5×7 Easter Bunny Card 4 file (SVG, Silhouette) and a colorful mix of solid card stock. I assembled the pieces, then added
some enamel dots to the flowers for sparkle.

Next, I chose another one of Lori’s cutting files called 4 Spring Borders (SVG, Silhouette) to make this pretty scalloped piece. Now … time to build the page!

To begin, I chose a rainbow stripe pattern paper from the Doodlebug Design Bunny Hop
Collection as the base. Then, I added bubblegum card stock at the top and the scalloped border in the middle.

In the top corner, I adhered the “coloring”, “eggs”, and flower die cuts from the Bunny Hop Collection along with some pretty enamel sprinkles. And for the journaling spot, I used 3 punches to make this … a 3″ scallop circle, a 2.5″ circle, and a 2.25″ circle then layered them all.

Next, were the photo mats. I cut 2 out of limeade paper and added more die cuts, dots, and the “Happy” tab.

As a finishing touch, I gave the bunny 3 colorful egg die cuts to hold on to, and … she’s ready for Easter! Yep … she and her carrots are pretty cute. 🥕🐰🥕

I hope this layout gives you a little holiday inspiration. I had so much fun using the 5×7 Easter Bunny Card 4 and the 4 Spring Borders cutting files. Highly recommend! Thanks for stopping by and have a great day.

Summer Layout Tutorial

Hello! We got the dreamiest paper in the mail last week and I couldn’t wait to create with it.  Echo Park’s Have A Great Summer designed by Lori Whitlock has all the best colors and papers. It made me think of how fun this layout would be with these papers.

First I decided on papers and made my cuts. (*If you are making this on cricut, check your sizes, my scallop page cut 7×7 so I had to adjust.)

I went ahead and inked all my little pieces

And then I added letters to the banner pieces.

One thing I’ve learned over the years is it’s never a bad things to flip the paper over. I had originally thought I wanted to use the pink side of the solid paper, but it just wasn’t as summery so I flipped it and used the yellow. I love that I did. So bright and fun.

I added my photo and took a few liberties with positioning the other elements. I made sure my sun was over my clouds so it wouldn’t blend into the background and popped the photo corner up on the outside of the photo.

My banner I wanted on a string so I added my bakers twine and then popped the banners up over top of the bakers twine.

Finished off the layout with some chipboard and stickers from the Have A Great Summer line and a few enamel dots.

Thanks for stopping by and Happy Crafting!

Bee-utiful Day! Layout

Happy Monday everyone!  I have some fun layouts to share with you today featuring Lori’s Bee Happy Collection,  This collection is just pure joy as are these pictures of me and my besties visiting the Friends set in Denver a couple years ago.  We had the best time.  Oh the memories of that trip!

For the first layout I used this Shaped Bee Card in Lori’s Shop or here in the Silhouette store,  and I just used the top layer to create this little guy and I used 11 Hearts in Lori’s Shop or here in the Silhouette Store, for all the little hearts scattered and stitched on the layout.

And for this next layout with that famous door to Monica’s apartment…I used just the top layer of the Flower Shaped Mother’s Day Card in Lori’s Shop or here in the Silhouette Shop,
Flower shaped mothers day card,  I love it on this page!

 

Thanks for stopping by!

Now we will turn the blog post over to Chelsea…

Hi everyone! Chelsea here! I think spring has finally hit South Dakota! We have had a lot of rain so far this spring and my cute little grandson has become aquainted with puddle jumping and who can resist taking pictures of him puddle jumping? Not this Mimi!! And all the green in the photo and his red shirt matches the Little Ladybug line that Lori designed for Echo Park Paper.

I used the Nested Scallop Circle cuts to make my little red accent piece (SVG, Silhouette). Anytime I can add little accents pieces out of basic shapes I think it adds a fun little twist on things and shows that not every layout needs to be fancy.
I splattered some black paint and used some ephemra to embelish the page using some dimentionals.
Thanks for looking and happy crafting!

Butterfly Mini Album Tutorial

Hey friends! Traci here and today, I have a new project for spring. Last Thursday was National Butterfly Day and I realized … I’ve never made a mini album in the shape of a butterfly! So, with the help of two amazing Lori Whitlock cutting files, I created a super cute little butterfly scrapbook. Take a look …

I chose the first cut file titled Butterfly Set (Silhouette) because it had the perfect wings, however it didn’t have the separate body piece that I needed. So I found a second file called Shaped Card Butterfly (Silhouette) & used them both!

I loved the delicate patterned cut-outs in the wings and thought it would be pretty backed with some colorful papers. I also added a few gems for sparkle. 

Let’s take a quick look inside, then I’ll walk you through the steps of how I made it …

I used the file to cut white card stock pages, then covered them in a mix of 12×12 pattern papers from Bella Blvd’s Birthday Bash and Bella Besties Hearts and Ombre.

I created photo mats for each page in varying shapes and sizes, then decorated with lots of cute die cuts.

On this page, I made two round photo mats by punching a 2.5″ scalloped circle out of a pattern paper, then a 1 3/4″ circle out of white card stock.

Ok, time for the tutorial. Here’s how I made the album with Lori’s awesome cut file …

 

Butterfly Shaped Scrapbook Album Tutorial

 

1. I duplicated the shape first so that I would have a front cover, back cover, and pages.

2.  I wanted the pages and back cover to be a solid shape so next I highlighted my second butterfly and clicked release compound path — this separates all of the little inside shapes.

3. I moved the base butterfly shape off the the left, and deleted the little bits and pieces that were left behind.

4.  Next, I created an internal offset of the solid butterfly so that I would have a smaller shape to cut pattern paper layers. 

I cut the cover pieces once, and then cut 5 solid pieces to use as pages.  Finally, I cut various pattern papers out of the smaller butterfly.
