Lighthouse, Flip Flops, Beach Ball & Pail Summer - In Summer The Song - Thinking Of You - Easel card

Yogi here today using a bunch of summery files from Suzanne that were meant to be frames... But heck when do I do what's supposed to be done....

I'm using a couple rubber quote/sentiment stamps from Quietfire Design ("In Summer the Song..."); ("Thinking Of You small")

And I'm using 3 Silhouette files from Suzanne. Click on images to purchase 
 

Cut, scored and folded my white cardstock to create the easel structure. Cut another piece same size and adhered to card front. Cut a piece of Dark Blue Ruche heavy paper and adhered to card front. Cut a piece of white cardstock and adhered to card front.

 

Opened SCAL (Sure Cuts A Lot) and the 3 beach scenes. Ungrouped and separated them putting the lighthouse, rope frame and beach ball on a 2nd page. Color printed it out on white cardstock then fussy cut around the images. Yes I know you can print and cut, but since it was eons since I last did that I couldn't remember how to do it. and since I'm probably not going to use it for another eon... I was too lazy to figure it out...

Cut all the elements on page 1 below and while on my mat colored the various pieces. Inked the clouds with Versamark and embossed with Emerald Creek "Soft Fallen Snow". Adhered my lighthouse, clouds and seagull to my card front.

Stamped the quote using Versafine Clair "Morning Mist".

On the floor: Adhered a piece of beige Ruche heavy paper. It has a texture like wavy beach sand.

Adhered the beach ball and pail, scoring them to create my stopper. Scored a little section of the flip flops and adhered them as well.

Stamped the sentiment onto white cardstock using Versafine Clair "Twilight" and clear embossed. Cut it in an oval shape and sponged some Distress "Faded Jeans" around the edge.

Birthday Banner Card

Hello digital cutting friends! 
My kids seem to be invited to a birthday party every other week. I like to personalize cards, so I decided on using the QFD Birthday Banner Monogram Font. I printed the initial of the birthday boy´s name, coloured the banner and did a scan and cut.

 

I decided on a blue background to go with a yellow card using heavy cardstock.

To make it look more cheery and happy I added ballons. 

Make sure to cut many different colours and sizes.

Adhere the ballons to the left and the right side of the card. You may also add some other embellishments like rhinestones or pearls et voilá you have a finished personalized birthday card. 

Happy crafting!

Personalize it with a Monogram

There is nothing like receiving a gift that is personalized just for you.  Monogram fonts are a perfect solution and they are such a fun way to make a gift extra special for someone!  As long as you can print a font that you’ve installed on your computer, you can make some very cool things.  

This project uses craft vinyl and an electronic cutting machine.  The list of things you can personalize with vinyl is almost never-ending!  It’s awesome that you can adhere it to non-porous items that will be outdoors getting lots of wear and tear and the detail you can cut is amazing.

We're making a monogrammed tool bucket for your desk today, but you could just as easily use the Pawsome Monogram Font and fill the bucket with puppy treats!

Supplies:

Quietfire Design QFD Unicorn Monogram Font  

Styletech  Crafts/Tape Technologies Textured Vinyl in Royal Blue

Transfer Tape

Silhouette Cameo (use the code 10off to save 10% at Silhouette.com)

Tin bucket

Instructions:

1. Install the monogram font on your computer by following the instructions from the font provider. Most fonts will work in any software program, but today we are concentrating on electronic cutting.
2. Measure the area you want the monogram to cover on the item you are personalizing.
3. Type the letter you wish to use in your electronic cutting machine software and size it to match the area you just measured. You can try printing out a test monogram on paper to check the size.
4. Chose a vinyl that will contrast well with your object. Follow the vinyl cutting instructions specific to your electronic cutting machine. 
5. Weed out all the excess vinyl in parts of the design that you don’t need.
6. Cover the design with transfer tape, burnish it  then pull the design away from the vinyl release backing. 
   
7. Place the monogram in position on the item you’re decorating.  Burnish it onto the surface then carefully remove the transfer tape. Do some additional final burnishing on the monogram.
   
8. Congratulate yourself! What a fabulous gift!

Have a look at the monograms tutorial here for more ideas!  Once you start, you'll be monogramming everything!  Happy creating, Suzanne
