Artistic Cat | Kelly Janes

Hey friends! Kelly here today and I have a new layout to share using the Pretty Pottery Cut File!

I started in Cricut Design Space by ungrouping the cut file and selecting 2 of the pots. I then resized and welded the pots together. I duplicated the welded image and then selected the contour feature. After the contour feature was selected, I hit the "hide all contours" icon. This turned this cut file into a solid shape so I could easily back the detailed cut file that I cut on white cardstock. [You can find a step-by-step tutorial in the process video below.]

I added hand stitching to the cut file after I had it backed with the patterned paper. I tucked my photo under one of the flowers on the cut file and went onto embellishing.

I used a lot of the Pink Paislee Paige Evans Whimsical Collection for this layout. It's all about my cat who invades my craft space every chance she gets. HA! This was the perfect layout to use all of the crafty themed embellishments from this collection!

Now you can take a look at my process video!

Remember to visit The Cut Shoppe Store to check out all of the cut files! And you want to know the best new about the new shop (for us Cricut users)? All of the cut files now have a SVG format which means no more slicing to separate the images! YAY! Happy crafting, friends!

Love Love Love The Best | Shannon Morgan

Happy Tuesday! Shannon here, sharing a wintry spring layout with you....because it's still very much winter here in Michigan. We are having what you would call, fake news spring. Luckily, my daughter Mackenzie loves snow, cold and winter as much as I do. As you can see from Rock's less than enthused expression, he does not share this love, but he loves his girl and is obliging her.

You'll find The Love Struck cut file set and The Word of Mouth cut file set featured on this layout:

Thank you for letting me share with you today, make sure you're checking the blog for inspiration and stop by The Cut Shoppe on Etsy to pick up these files and more!

All You Need

Good Morning Creative Friends!
Today's layout is made up of hearts and glitter and an amazing cut file from Ashley!  I don't know about you, but our black lab is definitely one of the family! Sometimes, I think she's one of the kids!  I picked up this glitter paper, polka dot glitter paper to boot awhile back and was waiting for something special to use it on.

I used The Give A Dog A Bone cut file from The Cut Shoppe and it's full of cuts for your canine pages! There's also one for kitties!

I love how this turned out and I LOVE that the glitter paper was no challenge for the intricate cut file and the Cameo! Just make sure your mat is super sticky and that your cut settings for your blade are correct and it should cut like butter (which my dog also loves!)

Ashley thinks of everything doesn't she? 

Get crafty! We'd love to see what you are making!
