New Year, crafting goals and birthdays!

Are you starting the new year with any crafting goals?  My goal is to organize my crafting space and supplies.

Along with that, today I’m sharing one of Lori’s moneyholder cards. You could use this all year long for birthdays. So you could make as many as you need at the start of the year and have them ready to go when you need them. You can find them here: SVGSilhouette

3D Paper Succulent Plants with Michelle

Hello Lori Whitlock Fans! Michelle here today to share some brand new 3D paper succulent designs that Lori has created.  You are going to love how fun and easy these are to make!

Each miniature paper plant stands about 2 1/2 inches tall. Such tiny little treasures! These designs can be scaled up and made larger if you would like to create something bigger. I had so much fun putting these together and I know that I will be making more! There are five new succulent designs available. You can purchase The Succulent Bundle 2 at the Lori Whitlock SVG Shop, or you can purchase them individually. They are also available at the Silhouette Design Store.

Each succulent comes complete with its own little planter. Feel free to mix and match them all to create your own garden! This plant, Succulent #8, can be purchased alone at the Lori Whitlock SVG Shop, or at the Silhouette Design Store. I loved using pastel chalks to give it color variations.

My second paper succulent was made with Succulent 11 files from the Lori Whitlock Store. You could also purchase these paper succulent files from the Silhouette Design Store. It originally came with a square planter, but like I mentioned before, they can easily be mixed and matched.

Succulent #10 can also be found by itself at the Lori Whitlock SVG Shop, or can be found at the Silhouette Design Store.  I gave all of my plants unique shapes by using a kitchen kabob skewer.

I’ve really enjoyed creating my Miniature Succulent Garden and I hope that I’ve inspired you to create your own garden too!

Have a creative day!

Heat Transfer Vinyl Potholder by Brigit

Hello there, it’s Brigit, I have a fun heat transfer vinyl project to share today. When I saw Lori’s homemade gingerbread phase (here in the Silhouette Design Store) I knew it would look so cute on one of the potholders from the Dollar Tree.

I used white siser easyweed heat transfer vinyl, it cut out beautifully and so easy to weed. To apply I used my new Cricut Easy Press which worked like a charm, but an iron works well also. These are quick and inexpensive gifts for Christmas time, I can’t wait to make more.
Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day!!

Sweet Teacher Gift with Angi

Happy Monday everyone! This is Angi from Twenty Five Smiles here with a fun gift idea for teachers. I am a teacher myself and love getting sweet gifts from my students. And we are only a month away from Teacher Appreciation day on May 3rd, why not make a handmade little something for your child’s teacher?

 

I browsed through Lori’s cut files and found this adorable 3D Apple Favor Box (here in the Silhouette Store) You can adjust the size to make it as big or as small as you like. It’s great for candy, trinkets, and even gift cards. You can add a small pencil embellishment inside as well.

Be sure to check out all of the teacher themed cut files in the SVG Shop. My favorites are the Teacher Thank you TagsA2 Chalkboard Teacher Card, and the Teacher Phrases.

 

I hope you enjoyed my fun project today! And don’t forget to thank a teacher!

Sweet Purse Gift Bag with Kathy

Hi Everyone!  It’s Kathy today with a sweet way to give a small gift or gift card.  May & June are crazy around here… tons of birthdays, anniversaries, graduations…and more.  I can always use a cute way to package up a gift or gift card.  Here’s what I created…

I used Lori’s new Purse Shaped Box file (found here in the Silhouette Store) for my project.  It’s adorable on its own, but I decided to dress it up a bit by adding some stitching and a big flower embellishment!  I’m so happy with the results, and I can’t wait to give it away!!  That’s it for me today, thanks for stopping by to peek!
