Eye Candy by Mendi and Joy

Today we have 2 of our talented ladies on the blog, Mendi and Joy. Mendi is up first with an adorable Easter layout…
“Well, as promised I challenged myself to use Lori’s new Echo Park collections to create an Easter layout. What took me by suprise though was that rather than going with the more girly “Sweet Girl” line, I ended up using her “About A boy” line almost exclusively. Just goes to show how versatile these papers can be for all sorts of themes including a girly project.   When it came to embellishing my page I turned to Lori’s fun spring shapes.  I think one of my favorite things about diecutting my own embellishments (aside from saving loads of money) has to be dressing them up. With the help of some chalk ink, hand stitching, foam tape and buttons, Lori’s flower, chicks & butterflies totally came to life!   I used her LW Happy font for my title, topped with some Glossy Accents. I love how doing this gives you the feeling of a fancy alphabet sticker, but the beauty is it’s always the perfect size to fit your space and you’ll never running out of vowels”.   🙂
For today’s layout I used the following cutting files:
Also don’t forget that today is the last day to get all these great shapes and many more for 25% off using the promo code “March25” at checkout.

Next we have Joy with the cutest gift’s. Joy says…

These purse toppers are so cute!  Cut them to fit any bag you already have to turn it into an adorable gift holder.  It’s such a versatile file.  You can dress it to fit any occasion.  Use it to hold gift cards, candy and more!

Scrapbook Layout by Mendi

I’m so excited to share with you this layout by Mendi. I need some warmth and Spring in my life and this is perfect. Mendi says…
“I’m back with another double page 8×8 layout to coordinate with the colors of my layout I shared last week from our same vacation.  My design was inspired by a beautiful sketch created by Allison Davis that called for lots of flowers and Lori definitely has plenty of beauties to choose from. I set to work layering her cutting files using her newest Echo Park “Sweet Girl” collection papers and brads. There are so many irresistible papers to choose from.  I think this collection would also work well for so many darling Easter & Spring projects!  Hmm… I think I think I just inspired myself with a challenge for next week.  Until then, stop by my blog today for enlarged views of my layouts”.
To create todays layout I used the following cutting files designed by Lori:
‘1 Great Day’ Phrase (Silhouette store only)
Flower Leaves (Silhouette store only)
3 Flower Leaves (Silhouette store only)
Flower (Silhouette store only)

February Blog Hop

Have you missed seeing our Creative Team goodness this week? Well, we have a lot of talent to share with you today. Lori has recently released some double page layouts in both SVG and Digital Scrapbooking/PSD format. I want you to see what you can do with these different files and our creative team has so happily obliged, told you they were the best.

First the SVG’s, these files are designed to be used with Silhouette machines and can be found here in Lori’s shop. After opening the file you will see how the layout is assembled. Ungroup the pieces, sort and cut from your favorite pattern paper/cardstock. Assemble all pieces onto background paper (not included in cutting file) and VOILA, a beautiful layout to add to your scrapbook. Pieces can be moved around and placed/used any way your heart desires.

SVG FILES in Lori’s Shop

IF you are not a die cut kind of paper crafter, these files also come as digital scrapbooking kits, and are found at here at Jessica Sprague . They have been created as layered PSD’s, which means you can use the pieces as clipping masks in Photoshop Elements and Photoshop. These are ready for you to add your favorite pattern papers, ribbons and photos and the layouts are done.

PSD FILES in the Jessica Sprague Store

We created these layouts with the idea that you could throw these into your Project Life albums and mix it up a bit. The smaller photos slots are 3×4, which is a perfect fit for any of Lori’s Life Cards in her shop both here and at Jessica Sprague.

Without further ado, please let me show you the order of our blog hop today. These ladies are truly amazing and have shown you different ways to use these layouts, both digital format and SVG’s.  When you are done be sure to come back here and leave a comment so you can be entered in our drawing for a $20 gift card to Lori’s shop. She has amazing shapes there and more coming each week.
