Cozy weather | Sasha Biyanova

Hello, everyone! Sasha here today) There will be winter in several days, but I have so many photos and want to create layouts and albums about autumn) And this one not the last)))) I loved The Pumpkin Pie cut file so much that decided to make layout with photo which is not connected with pumpkins at all)))

I think this pumpkin is cozy so I've used it with cute photo of my sleeping son)

I've just took 2 piece of pattern paper (size 6x6) and embellishments from different old collections. Our autumn was so warm that ladybags didn't fall asleep for a long time!

Wood veneers looks nice with this pattern) Actually I wanted to use acrylic paints but changed my mind! And I want to join challenge of this month in the facebook group : white on white :)

I recorded the video process of this layout creation! Thank you for watching)

Thank you for stopping by today! Please visit The Cut Shoppe Etsy Store to find more beautiful cut files!!!

And happy crafting))

Boo! with Kira

Hey there!  It's Kira and I am back with another 8.5x11 layout for you.

I created this layout for The Cut Shoppe's Halloween post, and then realized I used a cut file that wasn't going to be available to purchase until November.  Silly me.  But if you are anything like me, you're still scrapbooking Halloween well into November.

 

 

I started this layout by printing a photo of my youngest son on a piece of 8.5x11 photo paper.  This is the first time I have used such a large photo in my scrapbooking, and I gotta tell you, I am obsessed with how this came out.

A little about the photo:  I had used the Pumpkin Pie cut file as a solid image and cut out multiple on orange cardstock.  Then I cut out pumpkin faces using the Hey Jack cut file on black cardstock.  I gave each of my kids a glue stick and let them loose making paper jack-o-lanterns!  As you can tell, Elliott was having the time of his life.

It seemed pretty obvious that I needed to use the Pumpkin Pie cut file on this layout since Elliott is using it in the photo.  Then I used the Autumn Acres cut file to add leaves surrounding the rest of the photo.

After all the cut files were backed and placed around the photo, I added a few embellishments and called it done!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

xo, Kira

New Cut Files | Fall Feels

It's getting about that time...time to start working on Thanksgiving and Christmas projects, but for today, I'm still holding on to Fall!  We've got some NEW Cut File designs available today, that are perfect for getting started on your Thanksgiving projects, but I used the Pumpkin Pie cut file to create a Fall themed layout.

I wanted to use the Fall Breeze collection from Photo Play Paper, with a mix of Simple Stories Forever Fall.  When I thought about how I wanted to use the cut file, I decided on two different ways.  The first idea, was to place 2x12 patterned paper strips on my Silhouette Cameo mat and cut out a solid shape of the Pumpkin Pie cut file.  Then I transferred all of the strips, in order, to a White card stock background.  Once I had all of the strips in place, I machine stitched around the shape of the pumpkin for extra texture.

Then I cut the Pumpkin Pie cut file from a piece of Kraft card stock.  I wanted to back the open spaces of the cut file, but decided not to fill in every space.  Since I had so much patterned paper with the strips, I didn't want the cut file to get lost, by completely backing the whole design with the same patterned papers.  I like the way the cut file stands out, with some spaces filled in and others letting the White card stock show through.  Once I had some of the spaces backed, I placed craft foam behind them, to pop the cut file off the page.

I placed my photo (of my adorable baby cousin!!) in the center of the cut file.  I knew this would help draw the eye to the photo, with it being front and center.  Then I used a mix of embellishments from the Fall Breeze collection and the Forever Fall collection around the photo.  I wanted clusters on both sides to create balance on the layout.  I finished the layout with a simple title, using Kraft Thickers from one of my older Crate Paper collections.

This was such a fun cut file to use and a fun layout to put together!  You can find the Pumpkin Pie cut file in The Cut Shoppe Etsy store, as well as our other NEW cut files!  Make sure you head over and check them out!
