Kitchen Conversion Chart

Have you ever needed a quick conversion chart as you are altering a recipe?  How many teaspoons in a tablespoon?  Lori has several Kitchen Conversion Charts in her store.  I decided to use the wreath found here and in the Silhouette Store.

This file comes ready to cut digitally.  I decided that I would love it as a sticker.  So I used the Print and Cut feature in Silhouette.  This would be great on a magnet too.

Here it is on the inside of my cabinet.  It will be handy to reference when needed.
Have a great day!

Baby Bodysuit SVG with Infusible Ink

Welcome to July. I hope that you have fun summer plans this week.  I have a baby shower soon, and I wanted to try out Cricut’s  new Infusible ink.  Lori has many great files that can be used with infusible ink.  Most designs that work for heat transfer vinyl will be great to use with the infusible ink.  Lori has several baby shirt bundles in her shop.

Baby T Shirt Bundle 7  Baby T Shirt Bundle 6  Baby Girl T-Shirt: Bundle 2 Sassy Bossy Girl T Shirt Bundle

I used the baby bear cutting file. It can be found in the bundle above or here (SVG) and at Silhouette.

 

Infusible Ink is applied in a similar way as HTV.  But the result is really impressive; the ink is within the fabric.  You must use Cricut blanks or other suitable sublimation blanks. (A blank is the surface you are using as a base for the design, in this case, the onsite).   I love the result, and I am looking for my next project!

Father’s Day Shadow Box Card with Ashley

Today I’m sharing with you a Shadow Box Canoe Card that you can use for a Father’s Day Card.

You can find this in Lori’s Shop and at Silhouette.

I have some tips for this card if you are using Cricut Design space.  When you open this file, the envelope is just slightly too big for the 11.5″ cutting space in Cricut Design Space. To remedy this, you will want to select all the pieces and just resize them a little.

After you have resized, ungroup and select just the envelope to make sure it is under 11.5″.  If not regroup all the pieces and try resizing a bit more.

I edited the file a bit further.  I recolored the covering panels since I wanted them the same paper as the frame panel.

After cutting all the pieces I started assembling.  Lori has a video tutorial here that can help you with the hidden binding.  I decided to add a few touches.  I added an orange and blue paper behind the canoe to give a little different look.  I also inked the greenery in the front of the card.  I used Lori’s paper line with Echo Park called Summer Adventure.

The back of the card is where you glue a panel to include a notecard.

And folded flat, this card fits into the envelope.

Have a great day!

Pop Out Birthday Card with Ashley

Hi Everyone, Today I’m sharing the new Pop Out Birthday card. Such a fun card to send and easy to assemble!

Image 1

You can find this card in Lori’s shop and in the Silhouette Store.  

When you open this file in Cricut Design Space, there are a few steps to take before you cut.

1. Ungroup the file.

2. Optional: I changed out the dashed cut lines to score lines.  To do this, select the score line which is grouped in Shapes. Align the score line with the dashed cut line and resize as necessary.  Repeat for all the score lines on the white layer.

3. Group the 3 score lines  you created and delete the original dashed cut lines.

4. Select the score lines and the white card and then select Attach.

5. Repeat the processwith the blue card–replace dashed cut line with Score Line, Attach the the Score line with the blue card.

6. Now you are ready to cut.

You don’t have to replace the dashed lines if you are not using a Cricut Scoring wheel or scoring tool.  The dashed lines will be cut instead of scored.  But you will still need to attach the dashed lines to the appropriate layer.

Once you’ve cut the two card pieces, simply adhere the pop out portion of the card to the base, careful not to glue under the pop out section.  Then decorate the front.

  I used paper from Lori’s Spring Fling Collection with Echo Park.  Have a great day!
