Thank You Card by Natalie

Today we have a beautiful Thank You card by Natalie…
The other day I was in need of a thank you cards for some cute neighbors.  They needed to be signed by a group of girls, so they needed to be big enough to hold lots of comments.  So I made these cute mini albums which turned out to be the perfect thank yous.
I used Lori’s mini album with the round end found here.  I love that it comes with files for all the middle pages, but a little binding piece and a cover for the front.  I cut it out with Echo Park‘s For the Record 2, which had the perfect embellishments to cover the front and back pages.  I filled them full of blank pages and handed out each page to all the girls who were writing notes, then took all them and bound it into a cute book.  I hope that these become a treasure for the recipients of the books and know how much we love them!

New at Jessica Sprague

This weekend at JessicaSprague Lori has an adorable new set of files. Throughout this weekend, you can grab these at 25% off the listed price.

First is Life Cards Easter. I love the options it gives me for my Project Life albums.

Check out this adorable layout by Roelien! SO cute.

Look at this fun project by our friend Sarah. She has created the CUTEST banner from these life cards. I LOVE that she used them in a non-traditional way. Way to go Sarah!

Next are these 2 sets of brushes/PNG’s, Life Cards 4×6 Brushes & PNG and Life Cards 3×4 Brushes & PNG. Both of this kits come as both PNG’s and .ABR to install in Photoshop and use as brushes. Brushes give you the ability to chose your color, rather than using the color provided. There are so many options available to you with these files. Besides being digital scrapbook files, these Life Cards are also available as SVG’s in Lori’s shop.

Easter Basket and Carrots by Corri

Corri is here today sharing an adorable Easter project with us, she says…

Lori Whitlock just added this adorable carrot box to the Silhouette Store. I just love it and couldn’t wait to cut it.

I cut the carrots as sized in the file.   I embossed the green tops with the Cuttlebug D’Vine Swirls embossing folder. I cut this adorable 3d Easter Basket at 10″ wide so I could fit the carrots inside.  I probably should have gone a little larger .  This basket it so cute…it just takes to brads to hold it together.

The paper on my project today is all from Echo Park – All about a Boy.
