Cutting Craftorium Magazine USB vol 4 launched Sunday 12th December on Create&CraftTV



these are made from grey board, I used cadence metallic paint. All of he animals are from the scanncut basics files.


I used the brother foiling pen to draw everything but then used gilding flakes once the glue was dry. I used an extra thick vellum.


this is mostly gilding flakes in different colour ways. the top ring is micro beads 


I used construction strength acetate as it holds the individual pieces well. The mats are cut from a printed paper included on the USB edged in ink.

Coming tomorrow 11th October at 12.45pm on Create&CraftTV Corrinnes Trinity Collection USB



For this sample I layered the different mats in vinyl the sentiment is also on the USB I made my own mat in canvas.


the flowers and foliage plus the sentiment are also on the USB plus the dash around the edge of the ovals I chose to make the dash lines a drawn feature.


so many mats for this pattern I didnt even use them all so effective.


Another one of the matted shapes, I only used 2 enlarging it to make a decoration, I used a mixture of flowers from the USB and berries from my stash.

launched today on Create&CraftTV Creative Cuts USB from Cutting Craftorium

I have made this sample with vinyl layering up the different colours onto a base of blue card then cutting two circles of white card to make the card base.
I enlarged this file and used pastels to make the layers up.
The top layer in black has the flowers cut out and the word drawn on I then layered on white then another black mat before adding to a white base. 
I absolutely love this sample. I used three layers of card for the greens then vinyl for the silver and the font. I then used a cutting tool to add the holes stuck the lights to the back before adding a white card layer to hide the wires.

Pick of the day today on Create&CraftTV the Cutting Craftorium magazine USB vol 2

for this sample I altered the door frame to a heart cut the heart through all of the door layers and added a vellum between the layers when assembling. the hooks on the inside I added by adding a couple of rows of marks which I drew with the scanncut when cutting the back section, before adding the backing paper I used a screw to screw into the drawn marks ensuring I didn't go all the way through I then added the hooks dipping into glue before pacing so they are very stable.
For this sample I added my own label name I also cut the paper tassel away and added a real one 
For the star I altered the top layer by adding the cut out pattern into the top layer of the star I also added vinyl stars by using the inbuilt heart and altering the size to fit the stars in the pattern of the inlay.
For this sample I followed the directions included in the booklet to make the font but I cut it in vinyl instead of card. Where mine also differs is that I used 3 layers of blackboard paint and incuded a piece of chalk.
