Party on | Anna Komenda

Hello everyone. It's Anna here with my last project for 2017. I can't believe how fast this year went by. I am wrapping up this year with a party themed page. My daughter turned 9 few days ago and we had a party at home. Every year we buy giant balloon with a number and fill it with helium. It's like a tradition. Each year I take pictures of her with that balloon and scrap them like crazy :)

This year we had a pink 9 and when I was scrolling through the Cut Shoppe site I found this fun set of birthday cut files called "Party on"

I thought that those numbers look the same as our balloon and it started the process of inspiration and planning the page.

I wanted to add shimmer so I printed the "9" and "party on" using my laser printer and foiled it with Minc. You can use Print and cut feature or just cut it by hand. Just remember to leave a little offset. Thank to that the foil will cover the edges nicely too. 

I used rose gold foil for the "9" and gold for "party on". i also cut party hat and 9 candles using watercolor paper. I painted them with watercolors ans added to tge design.

Taking pictures of foiled elements is a nightmare. No matter how hard you try - you can't show how pretty the foiling is. It looks like a black surface. Foiling is a fun way of using your cut files and I like doing it from time to time. There is a magic happening when you peel of the foil and reveal the foiled image.

I hope you like my page. Thank you for stopping by and see you in 2018. Have a very merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Make a Wish

Hello! Mandy with you today to share a layout that I created using the Party On cut file set from The Cut Shoppe!

My baby girl turned 2 last month and we had a little party with family and close friends to celebrate! It was such a beautiful day, and of course I got lots of cute photos to document the day!

My layout features the Cocoa Vanilla Studio 'Make a Wish' collection!

I used two of the cut files from the Party On set...

Here are some closeups...

I created a little cluster of pretty embellishments to the left of the photo.

I love combining different alphas to create my titles! I used the word 'wish' from the Party On cut file set, which I cut out of white cardstock, and I combined this with alpha stickers from the Make a Wish collection to complete my title.

I LOVE the banner cut file!! I cut it from wood grain patterned paper and added some foam tape underneath to give it some extra dimension.

I finished the layout off with a couple of lines of journaling and some pretty butterfly die-cuts.

If you're anything like me, I'm sure that you've got lots of birthday photos just waiting to be scrapped, so why don't you pull them out, and use the 'Party On' cut file set to get them documented!

Thanks for joining me on the blog today!

8 Is Great!

Hi! Irit here sharing a new project I created with some favorite cut files from the Cut Shoppe! This layout is about my 8th wedding anniversary, so I titled it- 8 is (oh so) great!

Here's my finished layout-

For my mega title I used the no. 8 from the Party On cut file. The Open Letter Alpha is my favorite to use for big titles, and I welded the letters together. For a little final touch, I used a cute flower from the Spring Fling cut file.

I added some stitching around the 8, and a few little embellishments here and there. The gorgeous patterned papers are from a Felicity Jane kit. Here are some close ups-

Hey there!  It's Katrina from Paper, Scissors and Glue sharing a layout with the "Party On" set. This is a jammed packed set that you can create an entire layout with.

Party On

I knew I wanted a big hat.  When I was planning this in my head, I was thinking that the hat was a little different, but as soon as I saw it I knew what I wanted to do.  I trimmed the bottom of the hat with some ribbon and then I found that big flower in my stash.  Perfect for the top of a party hat, don't you think? Some of the areas I backed have foam adhesive and some of them don't.  Plus I used the left over stars from the cut!

The banner cut file in the set was just the right addition to the area above my pictures that seemed a little plain.  I created an offset of the original peach colored banner that I had cut, to place behind.  I like how it turned out.

That's all from me today, be sure to stop by the Shop to see what cut files will work for you projects!

2 Months

Hi! Irit here with a new layout using some great freebie cut files, as well as my new favorite alphas! Here's the finished layout-

I used the heart cut file from the Love Rules Freebie (you can get free cut files when you sign up for the newsletter!) -

And the lovely Kitchy Cursive alpha-

I had every intention of scraplifting Missy's awesome layout To the Moon and Back from Feb 9th, but as these things go the result was quite different from hers. 

I used the packaging technique to create the background, matching the colors to the colors of the papers I wanted to use, which are from an old Glitz Designs collection called Felicity.

I used the alphas and welded them to create the word Months in the Silhouette software. The no. 2 is actually from another cut file called Party On that has some great birthday and party themed cuts. 

You can see how I created this layout in the process video-

Thanks for visiting and I hope you'll check out the Cut Shoppe store for these and lots more great cut files!

Wish

Hello and happy Monday to you all!  Today I'm sharing a layout I created using the fun Party On Cut File Set! This birthday themed file includes a multitude of shapes as well as a few phrases that are perfect for your layout or project!  

I used the cute circle/star Wish as my title and layered it next to my photo. I just love this picture of my niece on her last birthday! She was so excited to blow out her candles! 

When I saw this new cut file, I knew instantly I wanted to use the fun pennants! I cut a handful out of different patterns and layered across the bottom of my page.  I then stitched through with my sewing machine. 

I added some of the ephemera as well as chipboard from the Crate Paper Confetti Collection.  

Showing more of the ephemera as well as stickers from Confetti. 

I also added more of the pennant banners across the top of my page as well. I am a huge fan of banners!  I love how it turned out! 

Thanks for stopping by today! Check out The Cut Shoppe store for this and much more great cut files! Have a great day!
