Small tags for wedding favours, the bride has added them to the neck of the favour jar with twine. I altered a built in shape from my scanncut to make the tag shape then used one of the built in heart shapes and cut in the cream then glued on. The colours match the colour scheme of the bride.

This is something the bride showed me on a DIY wedding site, so I altered a small box file I already had and used a basic shape from my built in shapes on my scanncut. The pastel card is american crafts and I used the font converter to add the text I liked the subtle effect of the white pen which I had to add tape to to use it in the universal pen holder. The bride is adding the tissues herself.

New Brother USB-Building Scenes

I think this is my favourite, it is an Ikea box frame. I used two elements of the starlight square, enlarging them to fit the frame of the box I the used the branch and flower from the doves and branches enlarging them to suit. I then made two matting and layering layers one being decorated with flowers and butterflies finished in encapsulated glitter. This was all achieved in canvas.

for this card I used elements from the starlight oval, making two layers of matting and layering between which I added some acetate so I could put the flowers in the middle. The backing papers were from my stash as were the heart gems. The sentiment is from a pad of sentiments from crafting.co.uk, I scanned it into my scanncut and used one of my simple shapes in the machine to cut it out I the inked the border to match.

This one is using elements from the Starlight circle, again with matting and layering using papers from my stash with added acetate I cut multiples of the flowers layering them to add colour and depth the enamel dots are also from my stash. The sentiment is again from the sentiment pad from crafting.co.uk prepared in the same way.


This is another of my favourites, I actually have this die from tattered lace and am delighted in being able to enlarge it. This frame is the birdcage tapestry, I have cut three of the full frame for the front one being in acetate so I could add colour to the cut out flowers on the acetate. The back consists of two inside and outside frame elements with all of the detail removed from card and one of just the outside frame in acetate to add strength. I then cut two of the cage in gold holographic card and the birds on their own in silver holographic card  to make them stand out. I then added colour to the flowers using glitter pens and centres. I am pleased with how it turned out I see it as a bit of home decor rather than a card.

So here is the sample project I did for the Cutting Craftorium USB one day wonder on Create and Craft tomorrow morning 8am UK time. I so enjoyed making this I used the toadstool file which comes with the base, one of the leaf files and a primrose from the flowers file I then altered the size of the toadstool removed the holes for the white spots and added pearl drops to depict a younger toadstool I then cut the base on an angle before adding it to the base. To finish it off I added some battery lights around the base and under the flowers.

 A Great new box card from svgcuts, I made this for my hubby who loves his gardening. This was so easy to put together but looks so complex, the cardstock is from papermill direct with the flower made from cardstock from tonic which cuts so well on my scanncut I wouldn't use it for the base of a card but great as a layer or decoration. The 'pillow' was from my stash and the 'towel ' on the back I added the font using the brother font converter using a font from my laptop and using the fill option on my scanncut. There is nothing this machine cannot do!!

This is my daughter's Birthday car, I designed it in canvas I used a double sided cardstock from my stash and for added stability (and to give me an area to write on) I added a liner of white card. I decorated with buttons from my stash (including a bumble bee button-so cute) then added nuvo crystal drops to add depth to the flowers
