June Blog Hop

 

Happy June Blog Hop!! I can't believe we are 1/2 way through 2025! For the blog hop this month I created this great 3D Flower Pot (SVG).

I used paper from Lori Whitlock's Firefly line by Echo Park Paper.

I inked my edges and added some dimentionals and some chipboard stickers and enamel dots to bring this boquet to life.

Finished it off with a tag from the Firefly collection as well. The recipiant put a tea light in the boquet and hopfully the video below works because it looks so fun with the tea light (battery operated of course).

May blog hop

 

With 5 graduates this year between our friends and family, I needed to get started on graduation cards. 

The first card I made was the Graduation Gift Card Holder found HERE. You just slip your giftcard or cash into the the little Congratulations Graduate pocket. Of course red and white are the school colors.

Next up is the Box Card Envelope Card found HERE. School colors here are blue and silver. These are so easy to make and the graduate always love them.

Followed by the Graduation Year Shaped Card found HERE. Again red and white for school colors. I love how the cap sits on the letters. It does come with an envelope file but if you are attaching the cap, you need to make the envelope larger to accomidate.

Last but not least, is the Hexagon Pop Up Card Graduation found HERE. Make sure you use good sturdy cardstock on the words on this one so they don't flop over. Such a fun card to make. Once again, red and white school colors.

Summer Layout Tutorial

 We got the dreamest paper in the mail last week and I couldn't wait to create with it.  Echo Park's Have A Great Summer designed by Lori Whitlock has all the best colors and papers. It made me think of how fun this layout would be with these papers. 

 

First I decided on papers and made my cuts. If you are making this on cricut, check your sizes, my scallop pages cut 7x7 so I had to adjust.

I went ahead and inked all my little pieces

And then I added letters to the banner pieces.

1 thing I've learned over the years is it's never a bad things to flip the paper over. I had originally thought I wanted to use the pink side of the solid paper, but it just wasn't as summery so I flipped it and used the yellow. I love that I did. So bright and fun.

I added my photo and took a few liberties with positioning the other elements. I made sure my sun was over my clouds so it wouldn't blend into the background and popped the photo corner up on the outside of the photo.

My banner I wanted on a string so I added my bakers twine and then popped the banners up over top of the bakers twine.

Finished off the layout with some chipboard and stickers from the Have A Great Summer line and a few enamel dots.

Purple Horsehoes: Lucky Horseshoe foun HERE

Yellow Stars: A2 Card Theme Park Balloon Bunch found HERE

Blue Moons: Box Card Envelope Witch found HERE

January Blog Hop

 

Can you believe January is 1/2 over? Where does the time go?! For today's blog hop I created a layout using Lori's Special Delivery Baby Girl line with Echo Park Paper. My dad because a great grandpa again this last summer so this was the perfect paper to document little Violet's arrival. 

I used Lori's Nested Hearts file (SVG, ) for all my hearts on the page. I cut them at different sizes and in different papers.

I added some chipboard and epoxy embelishments from the paper line.

And dont forget the dimentionals used to pop some of the elements up.

December Blog Hop

 

We actually are starting to get some snow in our area. I'm super excited about that. Happy December! And welcome to the December blog hop. Today I share with you a little gift for my nail tech. 

I used the 3d Hot Cocoa Coffee Mug file (SVG, silhouette). I used paper from Lori Whitlock's The Magic of Christmas Line by Echo Park Paper.

I fussy cut the little mug instead of using the snowflake that comes with the cut file. I filled the little mug with a packet of hot cocoa, a mini Bailey's irish cream, some mini marshmallows, a peppermint stick spoon, and a few pepermind chocolate squares and of course a guftcard to her favorite coffee shop. 

The size of this little cup was perfect for all the fixings for hot cocoa. I finished by wrapping it in cellophane with a red ribbon. She is going to love it.
