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!

Two Peas in a Pod Album

Hey friends! Traci here and today, I’m sharing a pea pod shaped mini album that I made using one of Lori’s adorable cutting files called Valentine Pun Stickers (SVG, Silhouette).
This file has lots of cute images and sayings
. I chose the two peas in a pod and made the peas removable! What a perfect little scrapbook for photos of best friends, twins, a parent and their “mini me” child, or a sweet couple.

Ha! How cute is this? I love the little peas!! To start, I sized the shape to 14″ wide x 5″ high and cut the front and back covers out of white acrylic. But, you could use white card stock or chipboard instead.

Next, I cut the peas and pod shapes out of green cardstock by Bazzill (guacamole) and Doodlebug Design (limeade and citrus).

I added pink enamel dots to their cheeks and used black card stock for their eyes and smiles. For the title, I chose black Alphabet Soup stickers (Doodlebug) and added red heart puffy stickers on either end.

I wanted the little peas to be removable so, I left space in between the pod’s green papers to tuck them into. You could always add more peas if you’d like and change the title to Three (or Four) Peas in a Pod.


The backside of the peas can be used as a photo mats. Add pictures of mom or dad and their little mini me, best friends who finish each other’s sentences, twins or siblings who share the same looks or mannerisms, a couple, or your sweet pets that can’t live without each other.

 

Inside the album, I made 4 white card stock pages. To cut these, I had to turn the shape diagonally on the 12×12 inch piece of
paper in order for it to fit.

Here are a couple of pictures of the inside …

I covered each white page in colorful papers and added different shaped photo mats for interest

Then, I had fun embellishing the pages with lots of cute die cuts and stickers. To see ALL of the pages in this mini album, visit my blog at Artsy Albums.

Valentine Birdhouse Tutorial

Hello Crafty Friends, today I want to share a Valentine themed Birdhouse I made using the Double Decker Birdhouse from the Lori Whitlock 5 Birdhouse Set (SVG).
The original file has one bird but I wanted to add another bird to make them look like love birds, so to start off with I copy & pasted the bird. Then I horizontally flipped the bird so that it was facing the original.
I did the same with the bird on the branch, then I used the knife tool to make 2 cuts to separate the bird from the branch. I then deleted the branch & used only the bird to cut.
After cutting all my pieces on my Silhouette Cameo & put together my birds onto the branch. You will need to trim the excess branch from the back panel of the extra bird we created before glueing him onto the main branch.
Next I took the larger part of the house which is the bottom & glued the side flaps together.
Once these were dry I proceeded to glue down the roof first by glueing down the bigger piece then following the smaller roof piece on top.
Next I took the smaller bird house & glued the side flaps together. Then I glued it down onto the bottom half of the birdhouse that we have already put together. Once this was dry I finished off by glueing the 3 roof panels starting from the largest on the bottom.
Lastly I embellished my Birdhouse with some die cuts, stickers & paper roses.
Isn’t it the sweetest!
