Lace Edge Card with Brandie

Hi there Friends! I’m sharing one of the new Lace Edge Cards with you today (SVG, Silhouette). These cards are so pretty and look great by themselves or embellished.  For the front of this card I also used Lori’s 3D Flower 8 (SVG, Silhouette). I added a few branches, a print and cut sentiment, and some pretty sequins.

I cut the card out of white cardstock then painted the pocket cover with water colors.

I hope this card inspires you to try one of the Lace Edge cards. Have a great week and enjoy the holiday!

Frog Bobble Head Favor Box with Brandie

Hi there Friends! Brandie here with a bobble head favor box. I needed a little box to tuck my favorite tube of baby cream and a gift card for a new momma friend.

I used the Favor Box Tuck Flap (SVG, Silhouette) and the Bobble head Card Valentine Frog (SVG, Silhouette). All of the papers come from the Sweet Baby Boy Collection by Echo Park.

I uploaded the bag and card into Design Space. I then removed  the images I wouldn’t be using for this project, resized the frog and banner, and changed the greeting to say Welcome Baby.

I inked the edges of the banner and frog. Assembled the bag, banner, flowers and frog.

For the wobble feature I DIY’ed my own wobble spring. I used 26 gauge wire, a hot glue gun, pencil, and two 1 inch paper circles. I wrapped the wire around the pencil a few times, cut the excess wire, then applied some hot glue to the paper circles, attached the wire spring to the hot glue on both ends, and then used liquid glue to attach the wobble spring to the back of the frog head.

I assembled the bag using liquid glue and attached wobble spring to the bag.

It is hard to tell in still images, but that head is very wobbly! I love that I was able to get the same effect without having to buy anything extra.

That’s it for me today. Thanks for stopping by!

Decorative Cutting Board Tutorial with Brandie

Hi there crafty friends! Brandie here with a tutorial for the decorative cutting board I made for my chicken loving aunt.

I found this cute shaped cutting board at Michael’s they also had a few other shapes as well. But I needed the chicken.

The Farm Fresh Eggs comes from the Farm Animal Dingbats Font. You can find it here in Loris shop and here in the Silhouette store. This type of file is uploaded like a new font to your computer that can then be used in your cutting software.

Once I had the font loaded to my computer I typed out the alphabet until I found the image I wanted. In this case it is the letter O.

I enlarged the image to 8 inches wide and sent it to my cutting mat. I cut the image out of chalkboard vinyl. I like how sticky it is and the texture it gives to the words.

When possible I like to weed my cut images while they are still on the cutting mat. So that when it comes time to place the transfer tape the image is flat and secure.

I centered my cut image on the cutting board using the jute hanger as a guide.

Pressing firmly I rubbed each letter then peeled up the transfer tape.

Here she is all cute and ready to ship. Enjoy the rest of your week and thanks for stopping by!

Easter Bunny Tote with Brandie

Hi there crafty friend! Brandie here with a cute and easy Easter bunny basket idea. If you are like me and want to give something small for Easter than this tote is perfect!

The Easter bunny tote file can be found here in Lori Whitlock’s shop and here in the Silhouette store. This little tote is cute as is but I wanted to use  the new Easter bunny faces files. They have so much personality!

I  removed the face on the tote and did a print and cut with the boy and girl bunny face files on the support piece that is included in the tote file. You can find the girl bunny here and the boy bunny here in Loris shop and here and here in the Silhouette store.

All of the pattern papers are from the 6×6 paper pads of Echo Park’s Sweet Baby Girl and Sweet Baby Boy collections

I hope you all have a Happy Easter. Thanks for stopping by!
