The Planner

Now on to this weeks project. I used the THE PLANNER - PRINTABLE SET

I know the design team has some beautiful Planners to inspire you, but I decided to focus on one element of the Planner set.  I created an altered clipboard for a Shopping List.



I created a pen loop, so we always have a pen handy (I don't know about your house, but we NEVER have a pen when we need one) and can hang this little cutie in the Kitchen for easy access.  I printed more shopping lists, but do have a few meal planner sheets at the back, so we can use as well.

Anything with Fall Colors Challenge!

I created this card to enter into SVG Cutting Files Anything with Fall Colors Challenge!. 

I fell in LOVE with the CHibi Scarecrow and had to use him for the focal point of my card. The card base is also a SVG Cutting Files file , it is the Bracket Label Card Base )  (The Bracket Label Card Base comes with one layer, but I wanted an additional layer, so I just copied the layer and resized.



  I edged all the pieces with Pan Pastels. I love how they add a softer punch of color. I LOVE how cute that scarecrow is!

Dishwasher Sign

My Hubby says that he doesn't put the dishes in the dishwasher because he doesn't know if they are clean or dirty, so I made this!!


I laminated it with my YourStory and put magnetic tape on the back.  Super easy and cute too!

If you want the craft room file it can be found here

Creativity Vinyl

I wanted to decorate the inside of my Explore and this is my favorite crafty saying (also very fitting). 


I Loved the way it turned out.  It makes me smile every time I look at it.  :)

Cutting Cafe Blog Post - Balloon Shaker Card

Be sure to visit the Cutting Cafe Blog every 7th and 21st of the month for our design team inspirational post in which by leaving a comment you will be entered into a drawing to win 3 FREE sets of your choice from the online store. 

 For this weeks assignment we could pick any file we wanted. I was so excited to try the Balloon Fun Printable and Cutting file. I LOVE shape cards and I Love Shaker cards, so this is the best of both worlds.

I used the Oval Balloon and all the layers, I loved having the different layers of balloons, but you could use just one if you wanted.  

I printed the Oval HB printable on a transparency and used it as the top of my shaker balloon. 

I punched little circles out if the red and yellow patterned paper and added Simon Says Stamp white and yellow flower sequins and some red micro seed beads to the shaker. 
 

I also made the matching envelope.  

I then printed the HB2U from the printable file on to the yellow pattern paper and cut it with a small die and attached with jump rings. 


I added some twine and a few pearl pen drops.
