Bows are all the rage right now and I recently went to a boutique where they were selling a party banner made out of bows. I couldn’t believe the price, however. It was $50! As all crafters do, I went home and decided to make my own with my electronic cutting machine and, you guessed…
With the holiday season approaching, I wanted to create a unique, handmade ornament. Hello, Mary here sharing a faux embroidered holiday ornament. This project combines high-quality card stock from CutCardStock and festive dies from Spellbinders. Materials Used: I chose the following shades from of card stock: Moss Green, Dawn, Scottish Highlands Green, Coffee Bean, Taupe,…
Oh boy, do I love to decorate for the holidays! It doesn’t much matter to me which one, because I love them all. Hi, it’s Maureen today and I’ve got a mini banner that is spectacular for decorating. It’s especially cute to hang over letter boards, buffet tables or in my case, a red tree!…
Hello, everyone. Laura here to share my new obsession with you — and that is making bookmarks. I bought an SVG from Etsy and although some of the cuts didn’t play nice on my Cricut, two images did. A monochromatic project is the perfect way to use Bazzill Marble Robin’s Egg with Aqua cardstock. Unfortunately…
Before the term “Friendsgiving” came to be, my husband and I hosted many “friendsgiving” events. We were newly married and worked in a restaurant, so a traditional Thanksgiving day off was not on our radar. We often had to work that day, and had many college friends that couldn’t go home for the holiday. We…
Do you collect nutcrackers? What style of nutcracker do you like? I remember walking into a Christmas store long ago and seeing several hundred nutcrackers of all shapes and sizes! The store employee proceeded to tell us all about their origin and how they are made. They are a Christmas icon! I’ve decided to recreate…
It won’t be long until school starts again, and it’s so hard to believe how fast the year goes! Here in the Southwest, the schools start in early August. If you are looking for a way to celebrate your student, or provide a little token of appreciation for a teacher this year – I think…
Hello Friends! Designing for CutCard Stock we are already thinking beyond Christmas to January. If you are like me January isn’t one of your favorite months. I feel like it always seems to last forever with the snow and cold, but it does happen to be my birthday month so I decided to make myself…
Have you ever received a small package and liked the gift box so well you decided to copy it? This is exactly what I have done. I also did a tiny alteration and made it slightly larger so I could put a pair of crazy socks in it to give as a gift. I started…
Today I decided to try my hand at creating some holiday home decor. Who doesn’t love seeing snowmen when out driving during the holidays? Seeing them brings back fond memories of building them when I was young and then building them with my kids. I found a pattern I liked in the library of my…
The weather has certainly turned cooler here in Illinois and the leaves are begining to show colors. I’m Melissa and while I was sitting outside yesterday I was suddenly inspired to create something using the beautiful fall colors. Fall is a lovely time of year but it means that cold weather is coming way to…
Hi CutCardStock friends! I sure do love the back-to-school frenzy this time of year. My kids are finishing up high school and college but that doesn’t stop me from getting in those first few days of school supply shopping and first day pictures. If you are getting your kids (or teachers) ready for that first…
