Thanks A Bunch!

Today is my design day over at SVG Cutting Files.

My project today is a tag that I  did using a the super cute Dutch/ Holland set that is new in the store today!

I had recently been to Amsterdam and found these cute wood tulips that I felt needed a gift tag. The dutch girl from this new svg file perfect. 

Other items used on this project are...

Jaded Blossom Luggage Tag die

Jaded Blossom Spring Dies

Jaded Blossom Smell the Flowers

A Berrylicious tutorial!

Happy Monday!! 

Hope you all had a great weekend enjoying some fantastic summer weather. It's my design day over at Jaded Blossom and with that I have a treat project with a tutorial using the Jaded Blossom Lollipop die. 

In this project, the treat becomes part of the card itself. All you need is some neutral colored paper and the bright colors of the packets do the rest. Of course, a couple fruity embellishments are a must!

Let me show you how I made them.

First, cut out the base shape using the lollipop die. You can see in the photo, your paper doesn't need to be as long as the die for this project.

Now we will need to cut a second time with the die in order to add the scallop edge on the bottom edge as well.

You will need to flip over your existing die cut so when you cut the second time the faux stitching will be on the right side when folded. 

Place the die cut on the die where you want to cut it. It is important to line up the faux stitches on the die cut with the metal die. This helps secure the paper in the die a bit. 

When you put it through your die cutting machine to cut this second time, you only need to push it through far enough to cut the scallop edge.

You now have the modified shorter lollipop die cut with a scallop edge on both ends.

I folded the bottom flap up at the first score line from the bottom for the drink packet to fit perfectly.

I used glue dots and bakers twine to hold the flap in place. i finished each card with some fun fruity die cuts and sentiments. 

Here is the rest of the cool stuff I used to put this treat together...

Its our WONDERLAND blog hop!

TWO DAYS long and a FEW free SVG files for you to snag and take

When we think of Wonderland, I think of the Mad Hatter and tea parties. 

My project today is a treat card that holds a couple tea packets not to mention the adorable new  Mad Hatter Squaredy Cat!

My card base measures 8.5" wide by 6" tall and it's scored on the 8.5" side at 4" and 4.5". I layered several papers and made pockets on the inside for the tea bags using the

SVG Cutting Files Tip Pocket.

Hi Everyone!  There is a new challenge at SVG Cutting Files, this month and it's crafters choice.  Just remember, the project just include something from SVG Cutting Files. Projects should be linked on the blog or Facebook Galleria Group by August 14. As always, there is a great prize up for grabs. 

I recently was on a business trip that took me to Amsterdam. I picked up a few goodies for the neighbor boy since he was helping to watch the house while I was gone. Of course I had to package it up using some of my favoite SVG Cutting Files. 

The base of the treat bag is one of the Decorative Edge Boxes  I decorated it with a mix of files that when mashed together resulted in my dutch boy and tulips. 

I filled the treat bag with Dutch chocolates and a mini wood shoe that had flower seeds that I picked up at the flower market in Amsterdam.

Here's a list of all the fun stuff I used on this project...
