Easter Treat Holder + Card by Corri + Daily Freebie

Hi everyone!  Corri here today sharing an adorable Easter card and treat holder using some of the newest files from Lori’s shop.

 

 

I used the Echo Park – Summer Bliss Collection that Lori Designed.  This collection is designed with lots of Summer images but the color work well for Spring projects as well.

 

I used  Lori’s new Stand Up Card Easter.  These new cards are so fun and I love how they stand up for display.   The Easter Egg Basket is a perfect match for my card.   The file includes layers for the eggs but I left mine simple and selected some cute patterns from the collection.

 

Be sure to visit Lori’s shop to see all the cute new files added this week.

Silhouette Tutorial with Brigit: Using Fonts + Freebie

Hi everyone, Brigit here to share a tutorial using Lori’s bunting font to create a fun Easter banner.  Using this font makes it so easy to put any kind of banner together quickly.

 

 

If you’ve never installed fonts before, just download to your computer, if it’s zipped extract the files, then right click on the font file and install, it’s that simple.  If you download from the silhouette store it will install it automatically for you.

 

 

Select the bunting font and type your word out, enlarge to the size you would like your banner, I chose 5.5″h but I ended up selecting all at the end and making it smaller to fit the space where I’m going to display it.

 

 

Ungroup and Release Compound Path, you can see in the picture above the bunting is separated now from the fonts.

 

 

When you Released the Compound Path you also separated the A and R middle pieces so make sure you select around each one again and Make a Compound Path so they join together.

 

 

Because the pieces are large I’m just showing the one bunting piece on the mat but of course you’ll need for each letter.

I wanted to add some more layers so I added a shadow offset to the bunting.  Select it, go to the Offset Window choose offset and your size, I left it at the default of .250 but selected corner.

I also added the circle and scalloped circle from the cupcake flags, ungroup and released compound path to remove the lines inside and delete them.

I enlarged the circles so the letters would fit inside, but you can also make the letters smaller so the circles fit inside of the bunting if you’d like.

Now your ready to cutout all your pieces and put your banner together.

 

 

A little tip, when cutting a couple of pages I like to group together by what fits on a page if it’s a print n cut or by color if not and keep to the left side of my mat.  As I cut I move the finished one to the right, just keeps it nice and neat.

 

I hope you’ve enjoyed this tutorial, you can find more of my projects at http://www.brigitsscraps.com.

Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day!
