Happy Monday crafty friends! Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving that was filled with lots of turkey, love, and laughter! Aimee here today to share this adorable snowman card and gift bag set.These 2 svg files are part of the new Christmas files from Lori. She just released a bunch of adorable cards, boxes, advent calendars, and ornaments that are so cute! I created these cute little guys out of the Echo Park Celebrate Winter by Lori! I love this wintery fun collection!This shaped card is so cute and I love that even though it has a round bottom it still stands up straight on it’s own! It measures about 4.25″ both ways so it will fit inside of an A2 envelope.And here is the matching box! I absolutely love how the white linen paper from this collection makes the perfect snowman face. This is a great set to have on hand when giving a small gift this Christmas!

Lori’s Crafting Must Haves – Black Friday

I thought I’d do a blog post showing you all the things I recommend for any crafter this Black Friday. Hopefully this gives you some fun shopping ideas. Feel free to share this post with a loved one that might be searching for the perfect gift or you this Christmas.

AMAZON
Visit my Amazon shop for plenty of craft tool and supply ideas. My favorite paper crafting tools, glue bottles, printers, etc. are all listed HERE.

This is a great Heat Press if you’re looking for a professional press that is still economical.

If you’d like to move up one level and get a professional heat press that has a slide out bottom platform, THIS is the model I suggest. This is actually the press that I have and I love it.

Looking for an amazing printer to compliment your Silhouette or Cricut so you can use the print and cut feature? THIS Canon printer is the one I’m using now and I love it! It has 12×12 edge to edge printing capabilities! I taught a class recently in conjunction with Canon and I have completely fallen in love with this printer.

However, if you’ like to skip the 12×12 function and go with a smaller more economical model, I also have THIS printer and it functions the same for 8.5×11 printing capabilities and it’s only $69!!! Don’t let the low price fool you, it’s an excellent printer at an awesome price.

Pop-up Card Tutorial with Ashley

Happy Thanksgiving!  I hope your day is filled with great food, friends, family, pie, etc.  And if you like shopping this weekend, I hope that you get all the deals you are looking for. I think there are many crafting deals that can be enjoyed right from your home and your favorite internet browser.

I am helping plan a Christmas Party for our church congregation.  We wanted each family to have a special invite.  So I searched for a pop-up card that I could make many.  I found this great Tree Pop-up (Silhouette, SVG shop).

Image 1

I decided to do a little editing. Before I un-grouped the card, I resized it just a little so that the outside of the card would fit onto a 8.5 x 11 piece of paper.

Then I did a little point editing.  To add points to a design, double click on the shape, and click where you want to add a point.  For this project, I chose the point to be a corner, then I manipulated the curves to the shape that I was going for.

At our Christmas Party, we will have a program about some of the symbols of Christmas. I wanted to incorporate that into the card.  I used  images from Lori’s Dingbat Christmas font (Silhouette, SVG Shop). Since these shapes will just be an outline in the card, I deleted any extra pieces by un-grouping, releasing compound path, and deleting any of the inner pieces.

With all the symbol images placed, I added text.  Since my text isn’t too near the cuts, I decided not to do print and cut, so that I could get 2 cards for every piece of cardstock. I saved just the text in the correct format as a PDF and took it to the copy store to print.  After printed, I cut 100 cards (well the Cameo did the cutting).

I am tying them up using a cute tag from Lori’s Tag Dingbat font (Silhouette, SVG shop).

I think they are pretty cute.  I hope everyone likes the special invites.  Now only 99 more to tie :).

Happy Thanksgiving!! And Happy Shopping!
