blank card using Chris Durnan's cutter file

I used Chris's cutter file to make this quick little blank card to send to a friend. I used different colors of glitter glue to add some sparkly to the centers of some of the flowers and the bee's wings. You can find the cutter files here - it includes all 26 letters.


Thanks for looking!

June 12 Sketch Challenge

I wanted to participate in the Jun12 Sketch Challenge as well as use some of Chris's files digitally. So covered two needs with one layout!



I have used CD00925-Corner Flourish; CD00698-May Flower; BK00428-Plant Grow Bloom; and Ileana's Sketch as provided. Photo is from the Internet, digital kit is mine.


I have taken parts of the personal cutter files and added styles and textures to them within Photoshop CS5. My digital layouts are designed to show that personal cutter files can used digitally without always getting out the cutter. I usually use the AI version of the cutter file as this imports into Photoshop really well. Sometimes I open the cutter files in my cutter software (KNK Studio or MTC), separate all the pieces and then export the file as a BMP. This then allows me to use the file in Photoshop once I have removed the background from the bitmap. 


Thanks for looking,


Have a wonderful day wherever you are!

Outta this world card

I made a card using a couple of Visual Designs by Chris files.  #CD00735 Rocket Book and her Cupid heart border.  The card is for my hubby.  I cut the rocket and the exhaust trail from her files.  Numbers were cut from Quickutz Frankie.  Mini buttons threaded with DMC thread.  Moon is a 2 1/2 inch punch.  Star and exhaust bling are from Michaels.  I stamped the rocket with a word stamp and navy ink and mounted it with pop dots.  "My love 4 u..." and "is outta this world!" are Dymo red tape.  Added a white paper clip and red/white/blue ribbon.  I mounted the moon a little above the card.  I supported the part sticking up with another small piece of black cardstock.

Dolphin library pocket

A library pocket for our Gulf Shores mini album.  I used the dolphin from #CD00584 Dolphin Silhouette.  The tape is Tim Holtz.   Crocheted border used as waves from Michael's.  So are the blue pearls.  The tags were cut from an Accu-cut die.  Scrap ribbons.  Word stickers are from Authentique.  I printed dolphin facts from the internet.
