Card Making

Hello, everyone! It’s Nancy here with a new project share.

 One of the great benefits of using cut files is how you can totally customize them to suit your own needs. As I was snooping through the shop, I came across this wonderful train file. Christmas trains are very nostalgic for me. They bring up very special memories of past Christmases,
with my parents and three brothers. I immediately thought it would make a great slimline card. For my project today, I have used the Vintage Christmas SVG Bundle. You can also find the train on it’s own in the Christmas Train SVG File.

Here’s my card:

Isn’t that a great Christmas card? It was so much fun to put together.

Sometimes when I see these cut files, I feel a little bit daunted because of all the pieces. Print then Cut is always an option. However, once you break things down, it’s not really daunting at all. Since this was a nostalgic project for me, I really wanted to use traditional Christmas colours.

This is where the customization began.  I used Cricut Design Space for all my work.

Here is how I customized it to my traditional colors:

Here are all the pieces after they were cut out:

Yes, there are lots of pieces but with the included instructions, and a bottle of glue, it’s easy peasy to put it all together!  Once it was all adhered in place, it was easy to add to my glittery slimline card base. Then I had an opportunity for further customization, with some fun embellishing!

This is a very special card to me now! When you look at cut files, don’t just look at what is there. Look at how you can customize them to be what you need!

Hello, friends! It’s Nancy back with another fun Fall Card!
This time I’ve combined four fabulous files from the shop.
Here’s my project:

Here’s my project:

I decided to size my kraft card base at 5 x 7 inches, since I had so much I wanted to fit onto it.

I then cut the Autumn Harvest Digital Paper at 4 7/8 x 6 7/8.

I inked the edges, and adhered it to my card base. 

Then I started with my cuts:

Here is a close-up look at the I Love Fall Most of All SVG File adhered in place on the card.

Here’s the To Go Coffee Cup SVG File.

This file includes a little heart. For the season, I wanted a little pumpkin instead.

There were several pumpkin options in the shop.

I chose the Fall is My Favorite Free SVG File.

I just had to do a little surgery on the cut, and I had my perfect little pumpkin.
