I feel privileged to be able to share a festive layout and video tutorial today using fun papers from Pebbles Let Freedom Ring collection and a number of cutting files designed by Lori.
As I state below in my video, I have a bit of a confession… I created this 8×8 layout for my Mother-in-law as part of her Christmas gift last year and saved it until now to share. The only trouble is I didn’t know then that it would be my turn to create a tutorial so I’ve tried my best to pull from my project a few of my favorite tips and tricks that I’m hoping will still manage to teach a few of you something new. 😉
To create my layout I used the following cutting files designed by Lori Whitlock:
2 Borders (Silhouette Store only)
Dot Star (Silhouette Store only)
Also, remember the Silhouette Promotion this week:
If you do upgrade your software (or buy a machine+software) using code: LORI you can earn this free SVG file. Just send me a your order number to info@loriwhitlock.com.
And, we’re still taking entries for this fantastic GIVEAWAY!!
Great LO and ideas, Mendi! Thanks so much for sharing how to add a border to create a different edge on a shape and how to add a shape to a banner to make it longer (I would’ve tried stretching it and it would have distorted the angled cuts!) Wishing you a very happy fourth of July, too!
I love your 3d files.
I love your layout ideas! Thank you.
GORGEOUS layout!!! Thank you for the chance to win the Silhoutte Portrait too…I so desperately need a new machine!
Thanks so much for the great LO & tutorial!
Blessings,
Melitta
I so want the Silhouette!
I’d love to win a Silhouette!
I love boxes and 3D items. I love Lori’s shapes in the Silhoutte store.
I’d love to win a portrait! Thanks for all the great designs.
I can not think of any specific files, but I really love all of your 3D files. So, I would love to see more of those!!
Thanks,
Bridget

Oh, thank for possibility.
Type of cutting files I would like to see would be things adaptable for guys. I love making things for my son’s teachers/therapists/para’s/etc. Finding examples for the ladies is easy-peasy. Stuff for the guys – not so. I like to do things such as give a little box of candy at various times during the school year.
This layout is just stunning Mendi, love it!!
