Ice Cream Cones with Mendi

It’s Mendi here and I am super excited to share a new layout with you today!  I’ve always had a thing for cute ice cream cones so I was happy to finally be scrapbooking my daughter’s 4th Birthday when she decided to forgo the typical cake or cupcakes and just have ice cream.

For my title I paired Lori’s Perfect Type font with her Happy Birthday Banner.  I was tickled to discover I could spell out the word “party” instead by using just select letters from the “Happy Birthday” phrase.


For my ice cream embellishment I used the ice cream cone from Lori’s Patriotic Icons set with a cherry borrowed from her Cupcake Banner Set.  To finish off my layout I created a date tab from the 7 Tabs set.

On a side note, I used darling papers from Doodlebug’s Sugar and Spice collection.  I hope I’ve inspired you to look at your shapes in a new way and play a bit.  😉

Silhouette Tutorial with Traci

Hi everyone, it’s Traci and I’m back with a tutorial for making welded outline titles.  For this project, I created a Father’s Day gift card holder.  This card is one of Lori’s newest files, complete with a pocket for tucking in a gift card to Dad’s favorite store or restaurant.
And here are step-by-step instructions for creating a welded outline title like the one I made for this pocket:
Step 1:  Choose a thick, chunky font and spread the letters out a bit.  I used Lori’s font called LW Clementine.
Step 2:  Highlight your word and ungroup the letters (right click, ungroup)
Step: 3:  Highlight the letters and go to the “Offset” window.  Hit Offset and use the sliding bar to adjust the size.  I set mine around 0.025.  (You do not have to color fill your shape…I just did this to show you more details.
Step 4:  Once your offset is done, highlight each letter individually and group the letter with the offset (right click, group).  Then highlight each letter, right click, and hit “Make Compound Path”.
Step 5:  Now move your letters so that they overlap each other (to keep them in a straight line, highlight them and use your right or left arrow to move them).  Once they are overlapped the way you want them, highlight the whole word, right click and hit weld.
Here is another example of how I used this technique on a layout.  For the “SMILE” I overlapped the letters, and even rotated them a bit before welding.
Have fun making these welded titles for your projects and thanks for letting me share this technique with you today!
