Autumn Greetings

I think Autumn has some of the most spectacular colors that nature has to offer. I love the all the pretty colors of leaves turning, mums of every color and pumpkins of every size.  The Cutting Cafe has quite a few cutting and digital files for you to celebrate this wonderful season.  Here are a couple that I have used on this card.

The Autumn Greetings frame  was printed on my laser printer.  I laid some gold foil over the printed image, placed a sheet of copy paper over the foil and ran it through my laminate machine.  I just love the results.  The Huge Pumpkin is printable from The Cutting Cafe also.  I loaded my image into the Silhouette Cameo and cut it with some glitter cardstock and added some jewels.  Look at what you get for a fabulous price.

Only $1.99 

and

Huge Pumpkin for $.99

Back to School

School starts here next Tuesday.  Regina, The Cutting Cafe owner, gave her design team some fabulous cutting files to work with that are perfect for the start of a new school year. I chose the Apple Treat Card.

I was a little intimidated when I first saw her sample card.  Watch her tutorial video below and see, it's easy peasy!

 

As with all my Cutting Cafe post, I am reminding you that you do not have to own a cutting machine. The Cutting Cafe files come in various formats, so you can print and hand cut to make any of her designs. And wow are they ever affordable. This one is just $2.25.

Christmas in August

Regina, the owner of The Cutting Cafe, asked her team members to do a Christmas in August project. And I'm thinking "why not?".  And should we not just do Christmas all year?

I chose to do this awesome Noel shaped card. It is so easy with The Cutting Cafe Noel-Word-Shaped-Card-Template-Cuttng-File.  

This file comes in various file formats, so even if you don't have a cutting machine such as the Silhouette, you can still print and cut by hand. And you can either print in color or use some pretty pattern paper. If you are printing on patterned paper, you will want to print on the back side and reverse the image. As you can see it even comes with additional images which I have not used in this project. And this entire set is only $.99!!

If you want a tutorial on how to convert files for the Silhouette Cameo, here is a really good one:

This is my first official post as one of The Cutting Cafe's designers.  The owner, Regina Easter, gave her design team this fabulous file for our first assignment. Wow!

Included in this download are the colored panels which I've used on my card

The triple accordion card was cut with my Silhouette Cameo.  Don't the colored panels and sentiment look pretty with this design? I finished it with some ribbon, gems and Martha Stewart punches. So easy!
