Life is Better on the Farm

August 25, 2025August 24, 2025

Happy Monday everyone!

I was so excited when this Chickens paper from Echo Park Paper and Lori Whitlock arrived on my door step. I knew this egg-stra cute photo of my granddaughter taking her bucket of chicken feed to the chickens needed to go on here. Last summer I took the grandkids to their aunt’s farm to see all the animals. Mary was all about feeding the chickens and horses.

I used the Chickens paper and for my title I used the Life is Better on the Farm 2 image for my title and added a shadow backing.

Then I added some rosettes. I used just the rosette part from the A2 Easel Card Valentine Rosette. I used stickers and frames and tags for the centers of the rosettes and around the rosettes.

I finished off the layout by inking some feet from the Free Range Feet stencil and adding some stickers.

Thanks for stopping by and happy crafting!

Number Lace for a Birthday Page Tutorial

August 21, 2025September 22, 2025

Hello everyone! Traci here and today, I have a fun 12×12 scrapbook page and simple tutorial to share with you. I wanted to create a layout for a picture of my sweet grandson’s 4th birthday and I found one of Lori’s cutting files that would be perfect for it.

I chose her Number Lace Cutting File (S VG, Silhouette). Not only did it have a number 4 on it, but I also loved the positive and negative spaces it created in the background.

Here’s how I made this layout …

1. I added the cutting file to my mat and resized it to 10.75 x 10.75”. I cut it out of white card stock and set that aside.

2. Next, I used the knife tool to chop down the background into smaller pieces so that I could focus in on the number 4. I didn’t want to cut the entire background piece again just to get the 4.

3. Once I isolated the 4 in the file, I deleted everything else and cut this section out of orange paper.

4. Then I used my scissors to trim the rest of the paper from around the number.

5. Now that I had the white background and the orange number cut out, it was time to create my layout!

I used the Echo Park, Vroom Collection that was also designed by Lori. I decorated my Race Car Mini Album with it and the colors and patterns were just what I was looking for.

I started with the orange 12×12 pattern called Ready Set Go Stripes as my base and layered the blue Winner Winner print and Ready Racers paper on top. Then, I added the white number lace sheet and I backed each corner with a yellow triangle cut from a solid in the Vroom Collection.

Next, I adhered the orange 4 on top of the white 4 that’s part of the background. I cut some photo mats out of a few other papers from the Vroom Collection and I added my photo.

Then, I finished the layout with lots of fun embellishments. The “Let’s Go” is from the Vroom 12×12 sticker sheet. And the other birthday themed stickers and die cuts are from the Bella Blvd, Birthday Bash Collection.

I hope this project inspires you to create something wonderful with Lori’s Number Lace Cutting File (S VG, Silhouette). Until next time, happy scrapping! 😊

12×12 Easter Bunny Page

April 14, 2025April 17, 2025

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.

She’s so cute … she deserved a close-up!

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

April 3, 2025April 2, 2025

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!
