Home Card | Miss Kate Cuttables

Hello! I'm coming to you today with a card I made for my mom to give to a friend who just bought a new house.

BUT, first, I gotta mention today's freebie:

Octopus SVG cut file ocean svg cut file svg cut files free svgs free svg cuts

Isn't he so CUUUUUTTEE!?!?

Well, when my mom told me she needed a card to congratulate her friend I immediately though of this design.  I knew I had a MKC file that was a cute little house and I thought it would pair up so cute with my embossing folder of Birds on a Wire.


If you want more info and pictures of this card, please visit the Miss Kate Cuttables blog!

Miss Kate Cuttables + Xyron Blog Hop!!!



Hello everyone!! Here today with a super cute project featuring Miss Kate cuttables sister company, Out On A Limb Scrapbooking and our SERIOUSLY generous sponsor - Xyron!

Now, EVERYBODY knows what Xyron does best - they make awesome, innovative, and useful tools to apply all that wonderful STICKY stuff to all your craft projects!  You may NOT know that our sister company - Out On a Limb Scrapbooking is a scrapbooking layout kit company!  They provide pre-cut, pre-designed layouts for you to put together and add your own twist!

_____________________________

When I received my layout kit I was so excited to put it together!  The little characters that Miss Kate creates are so CUTE and the whole kit was so easy to put together using my Xyron X 2.5" sticker maker.

I ran all my leaves and small pieces through the X to apply edge-to-edge adhesive.  I even used it to add my journaling strips:

Even though you could put your layout together exactly like it is originally designed OR you can change it up a little bit!  I used some Action Wobbles to make the heads of the cute little characters interactive - FUN!!



Here is a picture of my finished layout (click for a larger photo!)

Now, seeing that this is sort of a HOP, you need to make sure you visit the Xyron blog and the Miss Kate Cuttables blog to see all the other designers' projects!  ALSO I hear that there is a PRIZE up for grabs...

Two Dirty Dogs Layout | Limoncella by DCWV

Hello there people!! I'm dropping in today to share a layout I made using Limoncello - a newer stack that has lots of green and blue and is a little bit more masculine than some of the other new stacks.  Also, if you have boy dogs, it has GREAT little dog motifs on some of the pages.
 
 
__________________________
 
I had this ridiculously adorable picture of my dad and one of our dogs, Hiro.  He likes to lay on his back next to my dad in an effort to get his belly rubbed.  This particular day both dogs had been out getting RELLY dirty in the garden and this picture was taken right after they came back inside.
 

 
You'll have to click on the picture to make it bigger so you can see Hiro's sweet little face!

What would you use this stack for, with all it's masculine colors and little puppy icons?

Miss Kate Cuttables + Peachy Keen Stamps Swap Week!!

 
Hello crafty people!!!
 
I am so excited to bring you a new project today featuring Miss Kate Cuttables files and Peachy Keen Stamps!
 
Now, I cannot tell you how much I LOVE how these two companies and I love them even MORE when they are put together!
 
 
Here are the two Peachy Keen sets I used:
PK-194 Wisecrack SentimentsPK-291 Sampler Package of Faces
 
(The Sampler is a REALLY good way to start out with PKS.  There are 9 stamps in this set and with a little creative stamping you can use each face for so much more than just what they are intended.  For example: I used one of the 'kitten' faces and the short, 'bunny' whiskers to make a front-facing bunny face - it worked great!  AND this set is a bargain at $9.99 - the Wisecrack sentiments I used are also on sale for $8.99.  That is TWO PKS stamp sets for under $20!)
 
 
 
I had this AWESOME idea to make some eggs into bunnies for Easter!  I saw the little feet in the Wisecrack sentiment set and the whole idea just came together!

 
Since I wanted to use the PKS stamps instead of the original faces on the eggs I used the "Ungroup" tool to split the little face details from the larger egg shape and then deleted them.  Aaaand...BAM you have an egg shape ready to be stamped!
 
I was going to use one of the more EGG-centric (hah!) sentiments, but I did this card at a crop and as people were passing by all I could hear was "Oh my gosh, that is TOO CUTE!?"....so this sentiment was meant to be.
 
________________________________
 
(In case you were wondering how I made the ears: I used one steel-rule die of a leaf and cut it several times.  I used the open space in the middle of the die as a stencil and I colored the ears through the die with Stampin' Up! markers so it would make perfect little ears!)
 
Easter Eggs SVG cutting file easter svg scrapbook title easter svg cut file
 
(You might also be wondering how I got this file that has FOUR eggs to look right with only THREE eggs.  Well, I eliminated the fourth egg shape before cutting and then, I took the base and just trimmed off the excess to only fit three eggs - PRESTO!)
 
_______________________________
 
Well, I hope you enjoyed this little Egg-stra SPECIAL card inspiration!
