Time for Pie! A2 Box Card Pumpkin Pie Flowers

October 21, 2024October 20, 2024

Hi everyone!

The holidays are just around the corner…hard to believe they are sneaking up on us so fast. I had fun in my little studio creating this adorable box card. It’s Lori’s A2 pumpkin pie flower box card or you can find it here In the Silhouette Online Design Store. It’s just too cute with that little crust edge…love it.

I used Lori’s Echo Park I Love Fall collection. I have used this collection over and over, it is just perfect for everything this time of year.

I adore this little card. Wouldn’t it be fun to use them as place settings at your Thanksgiving table?!

And wouldn’t it be nice it we all had time for that?!

Happy creating!

Flexi Place Card

November 9, 2023November 9, 2023

Happy Thursday everyone!! Only 14 days until Thanksgiving. We have a few newbies joining our table for Thanksgiving this year so I thought it would help everyone remember names with these adorable place cards. They were so easy to make! Follow along below to make your own.

I didn’t need many supplies to complete these. I used a glue pen, a pointy pair of tweezers and a file for any rough edges. I cut all my pices and laid them out in piles. I also used my Cricut to write the names on the white pieces.

The pumpkin was by far the easiest (SVG, Silhouette). The little green stem goes over the orange pumpkin piece and added to the base card. I also added the white name to the 2nd piece of the base.

The ends just slip into the slits on either side.

How cute and easy is that?

I did a few of these, and by far the hardest was the turkey (SVG, Silhouette) because there were so many small pieces. Below is a photo of how to assemble most of these small little pices. Again. the pointy tweezers were a huge help on this one.

How cute will these be at everyones place setting at your Thanksgiving dinner?!

Pie Place Cards

November 9, 2020November 8, 2020

Welcome to the blog today. I’m sharing a project using some of Lori’s name place cards. Do you love having pie at Thanksgiving? How many pies are at your feast? With my extended family, we enjoy having many different pies. I thought it would be great to have pie card labels. I used the Cricut Pen to write the labels.

Pumpkin Spice Everything with Mitsyana

November 20, 2017November 19, 2017

Hello, Friends! How many of you are ready for Thanksgiving Day? Do you have a special feast planned? Any PUMPKIN on that menu? Well, if you are like me you then you love all things Pumpkin Spice. In fact, you probably wait for this time of year to come just so you can kick up your heals and indulge in all things pumpkin spice related!!

Lately, I have really enjoyed coloring and find it very relaxing. So I used images from Lori Whitlock’s Pumpkin Pie Print & Cut Stamps set to create this CAS (Clean and Simple) Pumpkin Spice EVERYTHING card!

I started by opening my ecal software and creating my digital card front by opening each image and adding it to my virtual “mat”.

To get your images centered perfectly within your card shape, highlight the group of images (everything you want to be centered) and click on the “Align” button. Here’s the tricky part…Click on “H Align” to align images vertically, meaning images will line up in a row from up to down/ down to up… and “V Align” for images to align horizontally, meaning the lineup side to side.

I’m making a long A10 sized card, so I want them to be centered/ lined up vertically so I click on the center “H Align”.

Once I get the layout of my virtual card to the way I like, I duplicate the image. I do this because I can make multiples of the same card or I have a back up in case I butcher my first attempt I have a spare. LOL

Don’t worry about the lines being there, these were just guides to remind me where the parameters of the card are. I intend to trim this off.

Then, I print from directly inside my ecal software. Click “File” on the menu bar and select “Print”. Easy peasy! I printed my images onto kraft cardstock using a laser printer. I used a laser printer as opposed to an ink jet because the ink is automatically heat set and will not run when if you plan on using markers.

I colored the little whipped topping with a white opaque marker. This would’ve definitely re-activated the ink if it was an ink-jet printer and it would have created nasty smearing and smudging.

For this project, I chose to color the rest of the images with color pencils. I love the way color seems to pop when applied to a darker paper. They almost look like they are glowing!

I printed another set, this time on white cardstock. Then, I cut out the banner pieces.

I ran the banners through my Xyron Sticker maker. I then attached them to their matching digis on the kraft print.

I cut the Kraft card down to measure 3.75″ x 9″. I mounted it onto mirror cardstock measuring 4″x 9.25″. Then layer it onto patterned paper measuring 4.25″ x 9.5″.
