Plaits, Plaits & Plaits | Tarrah McLean

Hi Cut Shoppe fans!

It's Tarrah McLean back with you and today I am sharing a new layout using the 'And Then' cut file set from The Cut Shoppe store!

My sister plaited her daughter's hair for the first time a few weeks ago and now Amelia wants plaits in her hair every single day! My sister said, 'Oh, what have I got myself into here?!' Hence my choice of title Plaits, plaits & plaits!

The 'And Then' cut file set was perfect to choose an ampersand from to form part of the title. I chose the one with the rectangles in so I could back a striped paper behind it. I used mostly the Crate Paper 'Good Vibes' and 'Carousel' collections for this layout.

That little chippie scallop circle that says 'Stay Golden' was just perfect for the photos of Amelia as her hair is a pretty golden blonde! I hope it stays golden for her but sadly it probably won't!

Another perfect embellishment were the bows included in the Carousel collection. I chose a fabric bow and layered a puffy sticker bow over the top!

Thanks so much for stopping by today! Make sure you check out the Cut Shoppe store to purchase the amazing cut files that are in there!

Happy creating!

Sugar & Spice and New Cut Files!

Happy Thursday everyone!  It's time to take a look at the new Cut Files that have been added to The Cut Shoppe today!  Five new sets have been added, and I created a layout today, using the And Then 12x12 background cut file and the Now I Know My ABC's alpha cut file!

I used the And Then background cut file, over a bright, striped patterned paper!  I love the look of the positive and negative Ampersands, with the pops of color showing through.  And if you've been loving the hand-cut alpha look that's been popping up lately, but just don't feel comfortable cutting your own letters, then the Now I Know My ABC's cut file is perfect for you!  You can get that hand-cut look for your titles, just by cutting the letters out on  your die cut machine!  Easy Peasy!  

And if you're wondering where the cute products are from, that I used for my layout, then check out the new monthly Kits from Felicity Jane!  This is the first Kit release, Charlotte, and it has some amazing papers and embellishments!
