Happy Fathers Day

I am so excited to share with you Joy’s project. Are you still looking for the perfect Father’s Day gifts for the men in your life? Joy has a great idea for you. She used Lori’s shaker box file and Echo Park’s Charming paper to create this perfect gift. I want to create one for my husband as well, gift card and all as he and my dad are in the process of building sheds, one at my house and one at my parents.  Joy has provided wonderful instructions on her blog to help you create it just like her’s. 

And finally, what a great way to showcase him on his special day with this ribbon. You can find it on her blog here.  She used Lori’s award ribbon and gears cutting file to create this badge of honor. She also used stamps that she created for the sayings.  Great Job Joy! I always love to see what you ladies come up with.

New Shapes at the Silhouette Store

I hope you all had a fabulous weekend! On Friday I’m running in the Wasatch Back Ragnar Relay race. It’s a 180 mile race from Logan, UT to Park City, UT across the mountain range. My hubby and I on a couples team with 6 couples (12 people). We each run 3 legs of the race. It will be a fun challenge and you can’t beat the scenery.  I’ve been training and REALLY hope I’m ready. Let’s hope for a cloudy day on Friday so I don’t die of heat stroke : ) Wish me luck. I’ll let you know if I survive!

I’ve been busy creating some fun new shapes for the Silhouette Online store. Watch for these to show up today or tomorrow.

I have some EXCITING NEWS about my online shop that I’ll be announcing tomorrow. So, check back to see what’s up. These new shapes will be available in my SVG shop tomorrow.

Have a super day! ~Lori

Vintage Suitcase

Today, I’d like to share with you this super cute project by DT member, Joy. You can visit Joy’s original blog post HERE to read more about how she created this cute vintage suitcase using my suitcase cutting file.

I love how she has modified it from the original and made it her own.   Joy covered the buckle with Stickles. I love the extra bling that adds.

I also like how Joy used rope for the handle. Check out her blog for more info. She has great instructions on how she assembled it, including pictures. Thanks Joy, love the new project.

Spring Fever

Natalie has so many beautiful projects to share with us today. She has finished unpacking so now the fun projects can begin. First is this beautiful “Necklace Box.” I love how she added a tag to the center to personalize it. Natalie says “My first project was some gifts I gave away for mothers day to my kids “other” mothers.  I found a tutorial for these super cute momma bird necklaces, and knew between that and a super cute box, it would be a rockin’ gift.  I used Lori Whitlock’s hello Summer paper collection from Echo Park and her cute necklace box file, then topped it off with a cute flower found here.”

Next I have these beautiful pots she has created with vinyl.

And finally this beautiful countdown chalkboard for the kids favorite day of the year.

Thanks Natalie for all your inspiration. I am anxious to go create. For more pictures and information, you can view her blog here. Until next time, happy crafting… Lisa
