Nail Polish Anyone?

Hi.  I'm back again with my newest project from The Cutting Cafe.  Regina is so clever and makes wonderful designs to cut and print!  Today, I made a nail polish shaped card.  There are many great sentiments and it can be used as an invitation.  She even made printable, shaped invites to put inside.  There are even files for a couple of different  nail polish box holders.  Please check them out.

Nail Polish Shaped Card

I cut the image on my Silouhette Portrait.  First I cut out the card shape with white cards stock and then I cut the front piece with designer paper.  Then, I cut out the black top and heart in black and the shadow strip on the top, in white.  I glued the whole thing together and added the elements (flower and bling).  Lastly, I added white dots on the heart and around the bottom of the bottle.  

Be sure to check out the The Cutting Cafe blog and see all of the wonderful projects that the design team cooked up for you!

Until next time...

The Cutting Cafe - Butterfly, Fluttering By

Can you believe it?  July is already here!  I am trying to get ahead of the DT game by making my projects in advance.  Then when I get really busy, I will already have the next project ready.  Sounds good, huh?  Problem with that...I already am busy!  I actually started on next week's project, but for now we will show this week's finished card.  This week's files from The Cutting Cafe is a butterfly theme.  We could do either a butterfly treat box or a butterfly folded card.  That is what I decided to do.  I cut out the pieces and used a plain card stock for the card base and a matching designer paper for the topper.  I added some glitzy stickers on the body and the antennae, put 2 black rhinestones on the head (for the eyes) and made white dots around the head and antennae and eyes.  I added 4 white flowers in the corners and put stickers in the center of them, also.  I used a Viva Decor pearl pen to put dots on the outline of the shape and used a glitter pen on the swirls on the designer paper.  To finish it off, I tied pieces of purple and black ribbon and glued them to the body.
