Happy Halloween!

Hi Everyone, I hope that everyone is having a great fall season.  We are officially less than one week away from Halloween, so you still have time to create some fun cards and projects like this Box Card Window Black Cat (SVG, Silhouette) I used several of Lori’s Echo Park Paper lines to piece it together including I Love Halloween, A Perfect Autumn, and My Favorite Fall.

I love making Lori’s box cards, they are so easy to put together, really make a statement and fold flat for mailing.  Here is a link to a tutorial for the Window Box Cards.

That’s it for me today, have a great week and Happy Halloween.

Hugs,

Couple’s Wedding Shower Decor

Hello Everyone:

As we gear up for the fall wedding season which is very popular, I was looking for decorations in the party store that would work for a couple’s wedding shower.  They had absolutely nothing and I knew that Lori would have some wonderful items that I could make into elegant decorations for this special bride and groom.  I used Lori’s 3 D Alphabet Letters.  She has a wonderful tutorial on putting these together plus the files are labeled as well.  I would suggest just taking your time and making sure the glue is set before moving onto the next section.  Here are the files for the 3 D Alphabet letters:

M – (SVG, Silhouette), R – (SVG, Silhouette), S – (SVG, Silhouette), & – (SVG, Silhouette), T – (SVG, Silhouette), O – (SVG, Silhouette), B – (SVG, Silhouette),
E – (SVG, Silhouette)

You can also get the SVGs for the whole alphabet in a bundle Lori’s store (SVG).

People were amazed by the letter decorations and went over to look closely as they thought that they were made out of wood.

I also decided to make the bride a personalized wine cup and used Lori’s font called Matilda (SVG, Silhouette) and a beer mug for the groom and I used her Sans font (Silhouette).  These were a huge hit with the bride and groom who loved having their own personalized cups for the party.

That’s it for me today.  Thanks for looking and have a great day.

Off to College Stationery Set

Hi Everyone:

Happy Fall.  Hard to believe summer is at it’s end.  I wanted to put together an off to college stationery set for my niece.  I’m going to send her first care package with treats and this stationery set in it.  These cards which are linked below, the Ornate Pull Out Cards 1-9 are so pretty and so easy to put together.  The Stationery Box Big Scallops is linked below as well and is great to package up these beautiful cards.  I used Echo Park Paper A Slice of Summer collection.  Thanks for looking and have a great day.

Anita here with Lori’s new, gorgeous Rectangle Pop Up Card Flower Stand.  You can find the SVG file here in Lori’s store and it is also here in the Silhouette store.  Lori also has a tutorial which will help you assemble her rectangle pop up cards.   You can find that video here.  I made this for a sweet young woman who is going after her dreams by starting a new job in a different field.  I used several of Lori’s Echo Park Paper collections, including My Favorite Christmas, A Perfect Autumn, Back to School, Celebrate Spring, Easter Wishes and Celebrate Easter.  Be sure to check out all of the new Rectangle Pop Up Summer Stand cards, they are so cute and very easy to put together.

Christmas in July Tea Towels

 

Hi Everyone:

For the first time ever, I decided to start making some Christmas items in July.  I  made these tea towels using three of Lori’s SVG files , Flourish Reindeer (SVG, Silhouette), Mistletoe 2 (SVG, Silhouette) and Merry Christmas Flourish Tree (SVG, Silhouette).  I used some tea towel blanks from Kimberbell and they are of awesome quality.  I tend to display my holiday tea towels hanging from my stove door handle so I planned out my sizing for the designs with that in mind.  I used the Cricut Easy Press to adhere my iron on vinyl designs but you can also use a regular iron.  They come out so beautiful and are so easy to work with.

Below are the photos of the parts to applique on the towels.

Here are the Tea Towels that I used.

Here are the close up photos of each towel.

It feels great to have gotten at least something done for the busy holiday season which will be upon us before we know it.  Check out all of Lori’s wonderful Christmas and holiday cut files and get a jump start on your holiday crafting.

Hugs,

Anita
