Merry & Bright

Happy Friday! I hope everyone is enjoying their Thanksgiving holiday and hopefully, you survived the craziness if you ventured out for Black Friday sales.

Lisa here from The Relativity of Paper and since we are officially in the holiday season I thought I would decorate my craft room with a few things by SVG Attic.

My color inspiration came from the felt garland.

I started with the Banner from the Sweet Shop Party. This is one of my favorite sets from SVG Attic. The banner is easily customized just by adding your own text to it.

Using Blu Raspberry, Red Hot, and Green Apple cardstock to cut the top overlay banner with the sentiment then cut a solid banner using Madero Beach cardstock, adhered the two together. Using a red and white bakers twine to hang the banner.

The 3D Tree Hex Base is so fast to cut and assemble. These would be so cute on a mantel, centerpiece, any time of year. I used DCWV Favor Boxes Stack to create the green and red tree, Lawn Fawn Perfectly Plaid for the smaller tree. I was going for a retro feel so I added the Pom Pom Fringe around the base of each tree with quick dry adhesive.

To create balance I added Snapdragon Snippets snowflakes, design #22595.

Thanks for stopping by!

As always, thanks for joining us!

Cup of Cocoa ~ with Cyndy G

Hello today I want to share with you a cute card I made with files from SVG Attic. I made the steaming cocoa mug box card from JGW Snowflake Stars.

I changed the file a little. I added a "flap" to the front of the card.

I used the extra optional piece and welded it to the card base. NOTE: If you are using Silhouette you will weld the two pieces together. If you use SCAL (like I do) you will have to break apart the base then select the two pieces and under path you will select "Union". If you don't break the base apart you will lose the fold lines.

I added some bling to the center of the snowflakes and used the cutout from the cup on my front flap. I added a small piece of foam tape to pop it. The paper is Doodlebug Sugarplums that I had left over from last year.
