Spring Has Sprung Blog Hop

Welcome to the SVG Attic-SnapDragon Snippets Spring Has Sprung blog hop! We are so excited to have you join us today!

At each stop of the hop we hope you will be inspired by the creativity of the design teams of SVG Attic and Snapdragon Snippets. You are sure to find many wonderful projects that will be at the top of your crafting lists!
This is the first stop on the hop!

Here is the project I created:

A garland of Easter Eggs!  I used the 3D Eggs from SVG Attic and cut each style of egg out twice.

I used pretty pastel patterned papers and attached the eggs to Limeade Trendy Twine with tiny clothespins.

Here are a couple more closeups of the eggs...

 Wouldn't these eggs be fun in an Easter basket or as part of a centerpiece?

It's Always Tea Time

I got my inspiration for today’s post from Alice.  Alice in Wonderland that is.  I bought a gigantic coloring book with Alice In Wonderland illustrations and then I remember there was a file in the SVG Attic shop with all the elements I needed to make a 12×12 mixed media canvas.

The file I used, Mad Hatter Tea Party currently being remade to be compatible with all cutting machines and you can check the store at a later time for it if you don’t already have it.

I started out by applying Mod Podge and pretty napkins to the bottom layer.  Then I found more Alice in Wonderland images on Google and printed those because I wasn't about to cut up my fabulous coloring book.

After the first layer was dry, I added a couple of vintage doilies, and the Alice and the Mad Hatter to the middle right corner.  On top of that layer, I added Dye-Na-Flo fabric paints which are translucent, but permanent after drying them with the heat gun or ironing on fabric with a hot iron.

I downloaded the Alice in Wonderland free font and welded the title “It’s Always Tea Time!”  as well as the “Drink Me tag.”

I also used a stencil and black distress paint for the clock and.  The Mad Hatter’s hat has the tag with 10/6 on it.  If you look closely at the bottom of the canvas you can also see the Queen of Hearts, The White Rabbit, and The Knave of Hearts.  I also added stamps, rub-ons and stencils

All the elements were cut with my Cricut using DCWV paper.

This is going in my kitchen because we love tea and it will remind us that we can drink it any time we want.

Thanks for coming over and happy crafting!!

Let's go on an Adventure ~ with Angeline Choo

Stucked at work? Need a break? Longing for a holiday?

Well, I made a travel suitcase -- and I'm ready for an adventure!! :) 

Well, ok.. Not really going to Hawaii at this moment, but one can dream right? :)

I actually turned the First Aid Box from the "Feel Better soon" kit into a travel suitcase! I love that the kits from SVG Attic are always so versatile and could be changed from it's original intended "design".

I got some travel themed stickers and layered them on the suitcase, reminding me of all those nasty sticky stickers that I find so difficult to get off your suitcase at times. I even made a luggage tag and tied it with twine to the handle.

Thanks for stopping by.

Hope you have an awesome adventure this week.

Spring Blocks ~ with Courtney

With it being nearly spring I was quite happy to make a little Spring Decor.

I used the 3D Block Pumpkin from the Falling Leaves  Collection.  I cut out three blocks.  I used my favorite paper ever,  Coredinations Whitewash Collection.  After assembling, I distressed the 'blocks' with Dew Drop Rich Cocoa Inks.  I then cut out 3 tulips from the Easter Elements SVG Collection  and the grass as well.  I used the negative cut from the grass to add dimension.  I love to use the Stampin' Up dimensionals.  I added them behind the 3 layers of tulips and to the grass.  

I think they turned out so cute.

I hope you do too.

Thank you so much for taking time to look.

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.

It is hard to believe that our current term with our Inspiration Team is almost up!  We will be looking for full-time team member's positions.

Do you like to create with SVG files?  Do you have a blog?  Like to take pictures?  Do tutorials?

We are looking for a creative team of individuals who want to have fun with great designs, network with other crafters, and further build the SVG Attic name.

Selected individuals would need to make a 6 month commitment (from April 2015 through September 2015)  along with this criteria:

We are looking for various areas of expertise (scrapbooking, 3D paper crafting, cards, etc).  In return you would get the chance to network and build friendships with other designers, build your resume, build your personal blog, and of course lots of free designs to stretch your imagination.  You will also have a chance to work with SVG Attic designers and make suggestions for other fun designs!
