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!!

  1. 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!

  2. 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

  4. 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.
