A Cut Above - October Project

       How adorable is this!?!  This is from Dreaming Tree newest Fall Collection.  At first i wasnt sure whout the tote idea, i was going to cut the handles off and just have a pumpkin.  However once i started making it, i thought it was adorable, and super fun to put candy in or even used as a super awesome gift bag, could also just be set out for fall decor.   I created this using cardstock from Cutcardstock.com - Flame Tree, Bronze, Jupiter, Mars, gold, and Flame.            Dont forget to check out the A Cut Above blog for more inspiration and to enter for a $5 GC to ACherryonTop.

    Happy Friday everyone! Its a little late in the month but I couldn't not share this with you. I used 3 Jenny Wren Cutfiles on this project - Fun in the Sun, Sun, and the 30 day calendar. I used a monthly kit from MissKateDesigns, the colors were perfect for these photos and the cut files. I used cardstock from CutCardstock- Cougar white, Fruit Punch, Yellow Jacket, and Black, with some patterned paper. I used colors to cut the files out with instead of the traditional white. Adding a few embelishments from the kit along with some hedgehog die cuts, and some glitter nuvo drops.  Below are some closeups of each page.            Thanks for stopping by, Happy Crafting!                                                                  ...

A Cut Above - August

  Good Morning! Happy August!  This month I am sharing a 3-d S-ummer.  the "S" is from a die set from svgcuts.com and the rolled flowers are from CeatedByGwen.com.  I used all the metallic cardstock from Cutcardstock.com -Mars, Jupiter, Rose Quartz, Azalea, Coral, Flame, Gold, Fairway, Lime, Lagoon, Vista, Amethyst - theres ywo more but i cant remembr them.. i used some white cardstock to cut the "ummer" out and then used Peach Sorbet Nuvo  drops to pop that out some.  Adding a few finishing touches like sequins, and some butterflies from an old Vicki Boutin Collection.  This took a lot of time, rolling all those flowers, and gluing them just right for them all to fit, but i absolutely love the way it turned out i hope you do as well.  Below are some more photos...           Thanks for stopping by..  Dont forget to head over the A Cut Above blog here ..  Happy Crafting!
