Good Morning Everyone! Today I want to share with you a Halloween card that I made today! (Created with a pattern from TBD.)

To create my card first I cut my card base, frames and mats in plain and patterned card stock. Next I sized my image in Design Space to the perfect height for my card. Next I cut out all of the pattern pieces with my Explore. After that I inked and chalked all of the little paper edges to add dimension. Next I assembled everything and attached it to my card base. To finish I added all of the highlights with a white paint pen. Thank you so much for stopping by! I hope that you have a wonderful day!

Next I uploaded the Bear with Christmas Light pattern into Design Space and sized the bear to my desired height. Next I created a small frame and attached my text to it so that my Cricut could write the sentiment and then cut it out.

Flamingo Gift Tag

Good Afternoon Everyone! Today I want to share with you a Flamingo Gift Tag that I made! (Created with a pattern from LSHD.)

To create my tag first I uploaded the patterns into design space. I then cut out all of the pieces for the flamingo and tag base in plan card stock and watercolor paper. For the multicolored background tag layer I first wet the entire paper piece. I then dropped in the following watercolor shades while the tag piece was still damp: Opera Rose, Turquoise, and Yellow Green. To get the extra texture I placed a small piece of crinkled plastic wrap on top of the wet watercolor tag piece and then set a book on top of it until dry. I then inked, chalked, and assembled all of the paper pieces. Next I wrapped some glitter ribbon around the green accent piece and layered and attached everything to my tag base. After that I stamped my sentiment with a stamp from Pink and Main. Next I added sequins and then tied ribbon in various colors to the top of my tag. To finish I added all of the highlights on my Flamingo with a white paint pen. Thank you so much for stopping by! Have a wonderful day!

Christmas in July Gingerbread Card

Hello Everyone! Tonight I want to share with you a Gingerbread Card that I made for a Facebook Hop that we recently had! (Created with patterns from LSHD.)

To make this card I ended up combining two different files: Building Christmas Memories, and Christmas Candy Gingers. First I made the gingerbread house shaped card. To create the shaped card I used the gingerbread house front and welded some of the frosting pattern pieces together in Design Space to create the frosted roof. I then layered all of the house pieces together and grouped them. Next I made a copy of my group and then layered two squares over the window holes and then welded the entire image together to create a solid house shaped base. Next I duplicated my welded house and then mirrored it. I then put both halves together, welded them, and attached a score line to finish making my card base. After that I selected both of the gingerbread images and sized them to my desired height for the card. I then cut out all of the pattern pieces with my Explore. Next I inked and chalked all of the little paper edges to create dimension. After that I assembled everything and attached all the pattern pieces to my card base. To finish I added all of the highlights with a white paint pen, and then glued on some sequins for an extra sparkle. Thank you so very much for stopping by! Have a wonderful evening!

Christmas in July Gingerbread Layout

Good Afternoon! Today I want to share with you a two page layout that I made for a Facebook Hop that we recently had at Little Scraps of Heaven Designs! (Created with patterns from LSHD.)

To create my layout I ended up combining two different files: Building Christmas Memories, and Snowball Gingers. First I cut my mats and frames and attached them to my layout. I also tied a green glitter ribbon around the small mats to accent my pictures. I then sized the pattern pieces in Design Space and cut them out with my Explore. After that I inked and chalked all of the little paper edges, and then assembled them. To complete my layout I attached all of my characters to the layout, added the highlights with a white paint pen, and added sequins in various colors to add a bit of sparkle! I hope that you enjoy my layout! Thank you so much for stopping by and have a wonderful day!

Fairy Cake Topper

Hello Everyone! Today I want to share with you a Fairy Cake Topper that I made for my Daughters Birthday! (Created with a pattern from LSHD.)

To create this cake topper, first I decided what size I wanted my image to be on the cake. Then I uploaded the pattern into Design Space and sized my image to my desired height. Next I selected one of the flourishes and copied the image and then selected mirror image so that I could use the flourishes to frame the fairy. I then cut out all the pattern pieces with my Explore in glitter and plain card stock. After that I inked, chalked and assembled all of the little paper pieces. Finally I attached my final paper piecing to white cake pop sticks with hot glue and placed my finished topper on the cake. I just love how easy it was to create my custom cake! The possibilities really are endless! Thank you so much for stopping by! I hope that you have a wonderful day!
