Mr. & Mrs. Cutting Cafe Post

Hello Scrapping For Tranquility and Cutting Cafe Fans!  Yes, It is that time of the month for my Cutting Cafe blog post.  I took a month off, if you wonder where I have been but, I am getting back into the swing of things.

For this month we used the file Fun With Silhouettes.  It is such a fun file with soooo many silhouettes to choose from.  I chose the King and Queen Crowns and here is what I made:

 

I started with light grey AC Cardstock for my base and sized it to an A2 card size.  I then used Black AC Cardstock Just a 1/8 of an inch under the A2 size to frame this pretty pattern paper I had in my stash.  I cut out my Crowns on my Cameo along with my Mr. and Mrs. Title.  Glued them on my card.  To finish I topped them with the shiney rhinestones.  I called it finished.  

Simple sometimes is more elegant to me than blinged all out.

I hope you enjoy my Cutting Cafe project and I will see you again on August 7th!

Blessings,

 

Trendy Twine-Happy New Year

Happy New Years Eve Everyone!  I want to share with you a project I did for Trendy Twine for New Years!  Everyone on the team did a super project so please stop over to Trendy Twines Blog  for all the links and to check out all the beautiful projects from these talented ladies!  

Now onto my project....

I made an alarm clock representing the clock for New Years.  The clock is a cutting file and digital stamp file from The Cutting Cafe.   

I used AC Cardstock for the solids , AC Cardstock glitter paper and Then DCWV red foil cardstock.  (Which is VERY hard to take a photo of with the numbers printed on them.  I tried daylight and night time flash so excuse the terrible pictures)

 To top the card off , what is better than Totally White Trendy Twine and Totally Red Trendy Twine in a cute little bow around the neck of the clock?  I love the way Trendy Twine just sets all my projects off!

I am very pleased how it turned out and hope you find some inspiration in some or all my project.

Here is the items I used from

Annies Paper Boutique

1st Post as a new DT Member for Cutting Cafe!

Hi Folks!  I wanted you all to know I am now a new DT member for Cutting Cafe.  I am sooooo VERY excited and hope you all are as excited as I am.  Regina makes AWESOME files and Digital stamps, PDF's , Templates and so many other types of files! You just need to stop over to The Cutting Cafe and check it out for yourself!

Ok,  On to my project.....we were to use a can or jar and upcycle it using Cutting Cafe files.  Since I am raising my grandchildren and one of them just outgrew baby food , it was pretty easy for me to decide what kind of jar I was going to use .....BABY FOOD JARS!  I have them coming out my ears! I never wanted to  throw them away for you can always use them to craft with right?  LOL    I decided I was going to make small votive/tea light candle holders.





First I used Cutting Cafe's  Christmas Basic Shapes Cutting files and made these adorable wreaths to fit around the bottom of the Jars.  I then made the snowflake and glued it on the side and put a little red rhinestone in the middle of the snowflake.   To finish it off I took some Frosted Cranberry Trendy Twine  and glued it around the rim.  I used battery operated tea lights in mine since I have little ones in the house but  you can use regular tea lights or votive candles.

Here is what it looks like in the dark.

Thank you for stopping by and I look forward to many more posts with Cutting Cafe!

Please leave me a comment I will answer you back and let me know what you think!
