Are you ready for Halloween? It is one of my favorite holidays, partially because of all the fun decorations. Have you ever thought of making your own? Well, when I saw the new shapes today, my mind starting spinning with lots of ideas with the new and old shapes. There are quite a few in the Halloween section of the shop, so if you don’t see what you want here, be sure to peruse the shop. Happy Halloween…
Before you ask, we have not forgotten the Creative Team call, I PROMISE! Lori and I have been A LOT crazy the past week. Family in town, kids back in school and health problems, but all is well and we appreciate your patience. We never could have planned for life this past few weeks. We have not forgotten you and love all the eye candy we have received. Be on the lookout, I promise. Until then, let me share some eye candy with you.
Today at jessicasprague.com Lori has 2 new template sets. Remember set 1 and set 2 found at jessicasprague? This time Lori has made circle templates. I love the freedom these templates provide. I can still be creative and make my own page or card, but with the ease of these masking shapes. Today only these shapes are on sale for $3.74 each, so head on over and get yours. Make sure and check out all the great creative team members and their samples in the gallery! Check back tomorrow for new SVG shapes in the Lori Whitlock shop.

Our creative team seems to have a flair for embellishing the world around us and Joy is no different. Today she shares with us a beautiful redo of her crafting cabinet. I am shocked at how much vinyl can change something. Here is her finished project using the “Fall Flourish” shape in the shop.
Not that the cabinet wasn’t beautiful before, but look at the difference. I love how she personalized it to her personal esthetic. I need to think like her more often. Great Job Joy!
.
At her blog she gives you a great explanation of how to cut and apply vinyl. If you need extra help or instructions then hop over to Joy’s blog.
Lori has created more great shapes I want to share with you. I love the circle backgrounds she has been making. Check out the shop for more that were listed last week.
Thank you to all of you that entered the Creative Team contest. We have so many wonderful applicants, it is going to be VERY difficult to choose. We hope to have a decision for you soon.
I always love to see what our creative team member Natalie shares with us because she always surprises me. She used her Cameo to personalize her daughters bike. Such a fabulous idea!
Natalie used Lori’s heart, flower and border files. They also had to name the bike, so the purp-cycle it became. Her bike also had the foam and vinyl cover over the handle bars that i turned inside out and added “I heart my bike” to it.
Natalie said “While i put the vinyl on, I found that it was easier to use a more delicate border, only because it was a little easier to bend with the curvature of the bike frame. It was a little challenging applying it, but I think the more loose and loopy the flowers and the loopy border, just helped that it was a little free fitting on the frame.” so keep that in mind as you are embellishing your own transportation devices.
She shares so many great things on her blog, I hate to steal them all, so make sure and head over to Natalie’s place to check out her instructions and more great photos. Thanks Natalie!
