DIY Double-Sided, Custom-Shaped Business Cards
Last week I was in Salt Lake attending SNAP!, a conference for creative bloggers. It was a great experience - I met lots of incredible people and filled my brain up with all loads of information - but, honestly, the days leading up to the conference were on the crazy side of hectic. One of the things on my to-do list was making my business cards. As you can probably imagine, the business cards at a creative blogger conference are kind of a big deal. I could do a whole post just about all the awesome-sauce cards I collected (from coloring pages, to sugar cookies, to sand paper), but I'm just going to share what I did and how I made them. I wanted to incorporate the new blog design into my cards, which meant I got to bust out my watercolors again. Yay! I painted a whole stack of 90 lb. ... [Read More]
Tear Open Easter Egg Cards (Print and Cut Silhouette File)
I'm excited to be participating in the Silhouette Challenge again this month, and I am really excited to share what I made with all of you! Like really, really excited. In last month's Silhouette Challenge, I was intrigued by Lisa from Grey Luster Girl's Candy Travel Alphabet Game. It worked kind of like an advent calendar with little tear-open windows for each letter. I loved the idea and really wanted to try my hand a some kind of tear-open project. Aaaaaand I think what I came up with is actually kind of awesome. We all love a little mystery, right? Cracking open an Easter egg to see what goodies hide inside is a childhood joy that I haven't quite grown out of. I decided to try and re-create that experience in a paper card. So I designed a card with an egg on the front that tears ... [Read More]
Bubbly Birthday Classroom Gifts with Free Printable and Cut File
My oldest's birthday is coming up, and since it's his first birthday in school, it's the first time he's taking birthday treats to his class. This is one of those simple mom things that stresses me out more than it should. Does anyone else do this? I know it's not a big deal, but since I've never done it before I worry about messing it up. It's Rookie School-Mom anxiety. Anyway, because of allergies, no edible treats are allowed, which means the traditional cupcake is a no-go. Instead, we picked up some little bubble favors at Target to give to his classmates. And I whipped up some little tags to tie on to each one. I think they turned out pretty cute, and they were suuuuuuuper easy to put together (much easier than cupcakes!). Especially because I used my Silhouette to cut out ... [Read More]
