fall favorites | iris fox

Hello friends! Iris here ready to shed summer and head into my most favorite time of the year, Fall. So when Ashley designed the new Fall Favorites Digital Stamp, I couldn't wait to play with them.  Nevermind that it's just the end of August. And since Fall is my love language, it was completely fitting that I document my love for fall with the new cut file called Love Language.

A heart with a bunch of speech bubbles, how fab is that?!  To begin, I cut the Love Language cut file out of white cardstock twice, because I had plans to tuck some elements under and knew it would look better if the whole cut file was raised.  In the Silhouette Studio, I decided where my pictures would go, which gave me the dimensions I'd need to print them at. I also opened individual PNG files that come in the Digital Stamps, copied my favorites to the same design space that my cut file was on, and resized them into the speech bubbles I wanted them on.  Then I moved them onto an 8.5x11 space and sent them to my printer directly from Silhouette Studio.  

To add a different element, I printed the Digital Stamps on vellum.  I absolutely love how crisp the black words look on the vellum, and how they still let the background show through.  

With the whole layout planned out in Silhouette Studio, it all came together easily.  It took some time to cut everything and back the file, but as usual it's totally worth it! 

I tucked some fabric leaves from my stash in 3 spots, and added embellishments from Ashley's Oakley Avenue Collection from Pretty Little Studio. Totally unplanned but totally perfect!  This includes the flair along with the title acrylic and little word strip.  In my clusters I added and a few misc brads and enamel dots.

I did add white splatters onto my background before settling the cut file on top, and to tie everything together I added more splatters in aqua and orange, concentrating on the areas around the embellishment clusters.

This layout, with the super fun Love Language cut file and Fall Favorites Digital Stamp set was such a treat to work on!  Stop by The Cut Shoppe to check these out and the other fabulous digital stamps that Ashley just added to the shop.  They add a whole new dimension of fun!

Hello Fall | Helen Gullett

Hello everyone... We are at the last day of August already! Kids are back to school and Fall is on its way. It is one of my favorite seasons.

Welcoming Fall season, today I have a Fall themed card to share with you that I created using Fall Finds Cut Files and Oakley Avenue Cut Files.

Fall Finds

Oakley Avenue

I used Fall themed patterned paper that I have on my stash for the background. 

I use the pumpkin border from Fall Finds Cut Files and create the border for the card. I open the file with Silhouette Studio Software and ungroup them. I drew a rectangle.

I resized both the pumpkin border image and rectangle into 5.25" width. After that I weld them together.

I cut it with my Silhoeutte Cameo light using orange cardstock and then I added the backing cardstock using dark orange color. I trimmed the extra with micro-trip scissors.

For the sentiment for this card, I used one of the phrases from the Oakley Avenue Cut Files. I opened the file and ungroup them. I grouped back the word "hello" and "fall" and then resized them to fit on the card.

I cut several of them with heavyweight white cardstock.

I decided to add some gold foil on the pumpkins. So, I added tacky glue on the lines using felt bullet tip glue pen (I used Martha Stewart brand). I let it dried till it turn clear and then I added the gold foil paper on it. Some of the glue dried completely but I kindda like how the gold foil on the pumpkin becuase of it. It look like distressed gold pumpkins now...

I added the patterned paper on the white card with adhesive glue, and then I added the gold pumpkin border. After that I added the sentiment at the space on the pumpkin border.

The card is done. I hope you all enjoy it and see you all next time!

Fall in Love

Good Morning Cut Shoppe fans!  Wendy here today to share some inspiration using two of the cut files Ashley has designed for the fall season.  We don't have fall here in FL, but with a little bit of creativity, any products/sayings will work.

I have used the Hello Fall cut file as my main inspiration for this page.

I then built a diagonal through my page moving from the top left dear cluster

to the bottom right title cluster.  I tied the diagonal in together with the use of the cut file, Bountiful Blessings, heart cuts in a dark grey color.

I love that I was able to use the Oakley Avenue collection designed by Ashley at Pretty Little Studio for my non fall page, and still enjoy the warmth that fall colors bring!  Make sure you stop by 

The Cut Shoppe etsy and see all the great cut files that are available.

Happy Fall!

Hey friends! It's Monique on the blog today and I'm so excited to share my layout with you. I created today's Fall layout with The Cut Shoppe's Oakley Avenue cut file and the matching paper collection "Oakley Avenue" from Pretty Little Studio, which is also designed by Ashley Horton.

and this is the cut file, which you can find in the Etsy Store HERE.

I chose the leaf and cut it 32 times from 4 different sheets of paper and adhered them evenly over my white background. Next I machine stitched them horizontally and then built the rest of my page from there. I matted the photo, found this perfect foxy 3x4 journaling card to place right next to it and added a few fun die-cuts, some word stickers and a flair button. Last but not least came the paint drops and I was done. 

This is all from me today. Thank you so much for stopping by to take a look! Be sure to check out all the fun cut files in The Cut Shoppe Etsy Store before you go.

Until Next Time, Happy Scrapping!!

Hello Wednesdays!

Hey friends! Kelly here sharing a new fall layout using the Leaf It To Me Cut File from The Cut Shoppe!

Fall is my favorite time of year! The cooler weather, the leaves changing color and the awesome fall scrapbook goodies! I paired old with new for this layout using a couple Simple Stories collections that have been hanging around in my stash and then also using Ashley's fall collection, Oakley Avenue, from Pretty Little Studio.

I cut all four of the designs from the cut file. I love that two of the leaves are solid images and then the other two images are open allowing you to back the cut file with your favorite papers! Backing cut files is one of my favorite techniques!

I added the title to the top of the page using products from Oakley Avenue and paired those pieces with a banner from Simple Stories. I tucked the leaves behind my photo and then continued my title under the photo using alpha stickers from Simple Stories. I wanted to add a little more color between my typed journaling and the word 'Wednesday' so I grabbed a washi strip from the Oakley Avenue! The colors match PERFECTLY!

To finish the layout I added strips of paper from Simple Stories at the bottom of the page, gold machine stitching and splatters of Gold Color Shine.

Here's a process video showing how all of this came together!

Thank you so much for joining me today and don't forget to check out The Cut Shoppe!!

Love Fall

Hello! Candace here with you today to share a fun fall layout using the Flock of Feathers 12x12 cut file.  I love this file!  It has so much detail and is so versatile!

I cut this file out of white card stock and cut it up to separate the feathers and have already used it on 4 different projects!  Today I wanted to use the feathers on a nice fall layout.  

I started with a white 12x12 cardstock and stitched a big circle 3x around the edges.  Next, I placed the the vellum backed feathers and my photos around the stitching.

For my large title I used embellishments from the Oakley Ave collection from Pretty Little Studio.  I added the final details to the layout with a little more stitching and a few gold ink splatters.  Here is a look at the final layout!

A few close ups of the details...

Thanks for stopping by!  I hope this inspires you to cut up one file and try using it on multiple projects too!  Have a beautiful fall day!

Love Fall

Hello there, friends. I'm back today with a new layout featuring the beautiful Oakley Avenue collection designed by Ashley Horton and one of the cut files in the Wreathed in Love set available in The Cut Shoppe Etsy store.

 

I knew I wanted to back the cut file with the Leaf Love patterned paper in the collection, but I also wanted to be able to put embellishments on it. I chose to add an extra layer of vellum in between the cut file and the paper to soften the image, then fussy cut some of the leaves out of the same patterned paper (I used the vellum version of it) and stitched them here and there inside the circle.

I also stitched the top and bottom portions of the circle and the sentiment, to make them stand out more.

Some Fall Florals, die-cuts and enamel dots finished the layout.

I hope you enjoyed reading about my process. Check out The Cut Shoppe Etsy store for this and many more awesome cut files.

Thank you for stopping by! Have a great day!

I Love Fall

Hello there! Today I have a fun, fall layout to share using the Fall Finds cut file and the Oakley Avenue collection.

To create this page, I used the "I Love Fall" phrase, and cut it out from white cardstock. Once I had the die cut, I seperated it into three phrases instead of one long one. I backed each one and stacked them in a row. Next, I cut out a larger "I Love Fall", and placed it underneath. 

I cut circles from the Oakley Avenue patterned paper, and scattered them under my photo. I mixed them with some of the flair from the collection, as well as some circles I punched from other Oakley Avenue papers with a circle punch. I can't even tell you how much I love the Oakley Avenue collection! The colors and patterns are so stunning, and I love the mix of clear, vellum, and regular patterned papers. The layer behind my photo is the most gorgeous multi-colored vellum! 

I finished the layout with die cuts throughout the page, and used gold thread to stitch some of them down. If you haven't picked up Oakley Avenue yet, you are definitely missing out! Thank you for joining me today!
