Easter Egg Doily Card/Blessings

Hi Y'all! Robyn here

 with a card using both digital files and a die cut that can be used for multiple occasions.

On the Mat

Easter egg doily card

Use the offset tool to create the background circle and the black mat.

The bottom embellishments are the drop outs from the doily.

Cut the die twice and offset the black layer slightly for the drop shadow.

Put double sided tape on the back of the paper before you die cut to simplify gluing.

Blessings Prayers

This is a stash buster card, and everything else but the Neenah solar white 110lb for the base and 80lb for the doily came out of the scrap bin!

I'm sending this off as a belated birthday card to a dear friend who might not want to be thinking as much about birthdays as counting her blessings!

I'd love to see what you do with the digital files and dies!

Last Minute Easter Ideas!

Here is an idea that might be fun for the young ladies in your life.  Just use some coloured papers, a hairband, ribbon and some Glue Dots with the Quietfire easter ring cutting files from the Silhouette Online Design Store and you have this adorable little accessory!

The Easter Rings look like this and would be great for a little boy! They are super easy to cut and assemble.

If you purchased the Easter Egg Holder you can cut some bunnies from vinyl and stick them on your Easter eggs - even real eggs! Get crackin'!!  or rather - cuttin'!  Quick as a bunny!

Happy Easter!

P.S. These shapes are still on sale at the Silhouette Online Store as I type this!

Easter Baskets - Guest Designer!

Mary Trevantino loves the Quietfire bunny baskets!  She says these project just tickled her!

Mary wrote to me to share her sweet versions of my digital cutting files which are available on the Silhouette Design Store.

She said she assembled the critters with a sort of "hinge" between the two bunny pieces so they would be open wider all the way down. (Love the bowtie!)

 

She added the sweetest face on this bunny and embellishments!

This bunny is all dressed up in her floral best!
 Mary also added some chipboard layers under the base to give the project a bit more stability.  Good idea!

Here are the projects as they appear on the Silhouette Design Store so you can see Mary has had a lot of fun making them ready for Easter!

 

Thanks for dropping by to have a look and a big thank you to Mary for sharing her creations!
Hoppy Easter!

Hippity Hoppity Easter basket and cards

Hi everyone and it's so nice to see you again on the Quietfire digital blog.  Today i have a few fun projects that i made up with the new Quietfire Bunnyville digital papers, tags and washi tapes.  I printed up lots of these pretty designs and had a blast making up some pretty things to give away for Easter this year.  Grab a cup of tea and join me for a quick tutorial.

For my projects i printed up 1 page of each of the scrapbook paper prints on my 8 1/2 x 11 printer. The papers will be slightly smaller and have a white border around them.  I also found that when you print them you can also change the scale of the print and make it smaller and print a 6x6 size.  You will have to play with your printer but this is an amazing find because you can also have all those adorable little prints just for smaller things and for cards.  I was so excited to find this little trick.

To make the baskets i cut a strip of the Washi tape to make the top border.  Then i cut 5 strips of paper that were 3/4 inch by 10 inches.  I glued them side by side at the bottom edge of the border strip and then repeated the bottom edge of the strip again criss crossing the papers to make the basket weave.

Then i glued it together at the ends to make a circle with strong double sided adhesive or you can hot glue gun it too.  The handle is another small strip of the dotted paper or you can even use some of the Washi borders.  I added lots of easter grass and white satin bows to the sides and it's all ready to stuff with lots of easter treats to give away.  

The bunny card is made with the bunny print from the Scrapbook papers and i also reprinted the stripe in a 6x6 size to go under the Washi tape border.  You can also die cut your own flowers from the paper and then you really have a fun piece of art to give away.  Perfectly matched and you can make them for everyone... i really love that.

And for my second card i shrunk down the paper again on the zig zag print to a 6x6 size and added a little strip of the Washi paper across the front and a pretty flower and a ribbon to match.  The backround print is a tiny green dot.  My favorite thing about the papers is that the colors go perfect together and you can print another piece if you mess up.  So go ahead and have fun and let yourself be creative.  You never know what you might come up with.

Thanks so much for stopping by to get a few more digital ideas and be sure and stop by the digital store for the Washi tapes and tags too.

                                                         Have a wonderful day!! Teresa

Easter Bunny Bendi Card / Spring

Hi Y'all! Robyn continuing to type at you from Bunnyville!

This adorable card comes together quicker than a rabbit out of a hat! and with a change in color way will be as useful for welcome baby and other kissable occasions as it is for Easter and Spring.

I love the dimension and movement-and the little cotton tails!

The extra flower top center is not part of the file.

In point editing, delete points till you can separate the image, then copy that and add it to your file.

Always make copies of your images before you start editing.

May Each Treasured Memory

Sometimes you need a card like this....

When you use a cut file card base the project will actually come together very quickly.  The hardest part is deciding on the paper.

I used the Leafy Garden Frame Card (on Silhouette) with Maja Design patterned cardstock, along with the Quietfire stamped sentiments. It was that easy!

Supplies:

Quietfire Design May Each Treasured Memory

Quietfire With Deepest Sympathy

Leafy Garden Frame Card at Silhouette Online Store

Maja Design Vintage Summer Basics Collection

Imagine Crafts/Tsukineko VersaMagic Midnight Black

Staples #110lb white cardstock

Leafy Garden Frame Card

Instructions:

1. Cut the Leafy Garden Frame Card in colours of your choice.
2. Stamp May Each Treasured Memory on the smallest oval for the card front.  Stamp With Deepest Sympathy on the inside.



Thanks for stopping in to have a look.  I hope this helps you create your own sympathy card.  It would be nice if we never needed them!

The children at the Black Mountain Home, enjoyed the Halloween rings so much I cut a

kaleidoscope of butterflies, flock of sheep and chicks,and a herd of bunnies.

We also used the cut sheets as stencils and templates.

I can't show you their beautiful faces, just the work of their hands and hearts.

More about the kids on my blog.

Enjoy the season and create without limits!
