Vintage Watering Can

Spring is here and I am ready to go play in the garden.

Tracy here and today is my turn to post on the SVG Attic blog and what could be more fitting for spring then a vintage watering can?

I am so happy with the way this turned out.  

I used paper from Pink Paislee and the  Hex shaped watering can from the 

SDS Watering Wishes collection

To create this project, 1st open the Hex shaped watering can and double the size.

(mine stands almost 8" tall and is 11" wide from the handle to the spout)

Once the can is glued together and before you add the optional access pieces, ink everything up with a tan ink.

Cut two of the flat daisies, without changing the size.

Ink them as well.

The can needed a couple of butterflies so I used the two from

Easter Elements file.

To finish it off, tie some twine around the spout.

I can't wait to place this project up on my shelf in my kitchen. 

Spring Watering Can

Happy Leap Day! Tanya from Crafting on Caffeine here today.  I am super excited that it feels like spring. So I created this cute watering can treat.  Hope you enjoy. 

I was so excited to be able to take these pics outside!

I used the following SVG Attic files to put this together:

Watering Can - SDS Watering Wishes

Butterflies - Welcome Spring

 "Grow It" Statement - JGW Blooming Card Kit

Can't forget about the following to pull this all together

DCWV- paper for watercan and sentiment 

Jaded Blossom- Candy Wrap Dies, Spring Dies, Spring Wraps, Mother's Day Candies

BoBunny Double Dot- paper for butterflies
eBrush
Trendy Twine- Totally Lemon

I hope I have inspired you! Thank you for stopping by, see you again soon!

Gerbera Daisy Box with Beth

Happy Wednesday morning all!  Beth from Beth's Beauties here today.  For my project, I chose the papers I wanted to use first (from K & Company) and designed my project around those.

 I started with the Hexagon Box from SVG Attic's Basic Deep Lid Boxes set.  I absolutely LOVE the versatility of that set!  They make a great base to decorate with endless possibilities.

That doily you see peeking through is from the Raven Quest set.  I simply broke apart the lines of the doily file in my cutting software and deleted the skull and bat cuts that I didn't want.

 The daisy is from Watering Wishes.  I inked around the edges and added water drops of glossy accents on it.  The leaves are from the Enchanted Autumn set.

I finished off the box by wrapping some ribbon and Watermelon Taffy and Tickled Pink Trendy Twines around the outside of the lid.  I also placed some sequins on the top for a little sparkle.

I hope you have a wonderfully crafty day!

SVG Attic Guest Designer Pam Leng - Beautiful Flowers

Hello SVG Attic fans this is Pam here from hookedonkrafts .  I am so excited today as this is my very first post as a Guest Designer for SVG Attic. I was so thrilled to be asked and I knew straight away what my first project was going to be :) I always have a full wish list in the SVG Attic store so it was just a matter of click, purchase and away I went.

For this project I used the SDS Watering Wishes Kit and the flowers are just perfect to re size to go inside the watering can. I used some really bright papers that I had in my stash and even the small daisies on the handle were made with the same cutting file as the larger flowers.

At the moment my Mother in Law is not very well and in hospital so this was perfect to take her as a gift as real flowers are no longer allowed.

Thank you for popping in today and why not pop straight over to the SVG Attic store and have a look at all their gorgeous collections there are to choose from.

I am a wife, mom, and Massage Therapist, in that order.  My hubby of 20 years is great about understanding my love for crafting.  In fact he helped me turn our spare bedroom into my craft room about a year ago. I am a mom of an 18 yr old and an almost 15 yr old both keep me going and love seeing what I'm crafting next.  I own my own business as a Massage Therapist and Love my career! 

I live in South Dakota but have lived in many places since I'm a Navy brat.

I have been on 2 Design Teams and now with SVG Attic I am currently on 2.  I hope that you take some inspiration from me and can't wait to see what you come up with.

Introducing I-Team Member Beth Fiscus

Hello everyone!  My name is Beth Fiscus.  I have been a part of the SVG Attic inspiration team for about two years, so you probably know of me or have seen some of my projects already.  I am the Inspiration Team Coordinator and hope to share my love of these wonderful files with the rest of the new team and all of you.  My personal blog is Beth's Beauties and I'd love for you to stop by for a visit sometime!

I have a wonderfully supportive husband, who encourages me to be creative!  We live in a small town of 600 people, where everyone knows everyone else :)  We have three very energetic boys, ages 8, 5, and 2 who definitely keep me busy!  For the most part, I am a stay at home mom, but I am a nurse by occupation and I work in a local nursing home 1-2 nights per week.

Here is a little bit more about myself...
            Born and Raised:  Nebraska- I grew up on a farm where I learned so very much about family, religion, hard work and dedication.  It is also where I was taught how to sew and do hand embroidery at the age of 5, which planted the seed of creativity in my heart!
            Places I've Lived: NEBRASKA
            Style: I can't say that I have a specific style.  I love elegant and fancy things, but I create with all different mediums, vinyl, paper, fabric, wood, the list goes on and on.
            Favorite Project:  My favorite project changes with the seasons, and since it is spring, this is my current favorite:

Watering Can Floral Arrangement

The sets I used on this project were:

Dreaming of Spring ~ with Cyndy

Today I chose the Watering Can from SDS Water Wishes and the Garden Apron Card from JGW Blooming Card Kit.

I used Graphic 45, Once Upon a Springtime again.  I am in love with this paper.  Everything you make with this paper turns out beautiful.

I used the flat daisy also from the SDS Water Wishes, to accent the watering can.  I left off the upper handle because I plan on using this as a gift bag.

I used a chip board frame that came with the paper pack on the spout and a chip board tag.

I love this apron card.  The gardening tools come out of the pockets.  They are so cute.

If you know someone who loves gardening any of  these projects would make the perfect gift!

I hope you have enjoyed my project today.  Here's to hoping spring comes soon!  I am tired of the cold weather.

Do what inspires you,
Cyndy G.
