Shaped July 4th Card with Beth

I have three people in my family whose birthdays are on the 4th of July...my dad and two cousins.  Crazy, right?  So when I saw the Stars and Stripes card kit from SVG Attic I knew the shaped July 4th card would be perfect as birthday cards :)  A little non-traditional, but very fun!

It was so easy to make!  Plus I made the matching A7 envelope included in that kit out of patterned cardstock.  I popped a couple of the elements up with foam tape and added a few red sequins and lots of white doodle dots.

I hope you have a wonderfully crafty day and a great Fourth of July!

the BUZZ with the JGW Blooming Card Kit

Hi, Allie here from My Card Party with a card from the JGW Blooming Card Kit.

This fun Blooming Card Kit has so many cute cards, along with an envelope.

I made mine as shown, changing up the colors so it's a little more monochromatic.

I double distressed the hive with Peanut Brittle and Rich Cocoa inks. The Peanut Brittle was kind of rubbed on, where the Rich Cocoa was sponged on, a little heavier in some places. I also used some Canteloupe ink to bring out the dots in the cardstock. I pop dotted almost everything at different heights. The wings on the Bee are inked with Summer Sky and glittered.

Supplies:

Blooming Card Kit (shown above)

Cardstock, Inks (Memento Inks from Imagine Crafts), Glitter, Adhesive

Thanks for joining me today!

A Star is Born! with Melissa

When I purchased the Vintage Nation kit a long while back, the main reason I loved it was the beautiful 3D star.  Yet- I always have something else to make, for some occasion or other, and never found a reasonable occasion to "need" to make the Star.  Today- I did.  Just Because I wanted to! :)  Good reason, right?

I used some paper that I love the colors of, and made a "happy star" to brighten an otherwise less than stellar
week.  I actually like all of the Vintage Nation kit, as it has so many pieces that are just fun for lots of celebratory occasions and even the winter holidays!

I hope that today's project made you smile a little too- make today and everyday a wonderful one!

Make mine a Strawberry, please ~ with Courtney

For my project today I used the Here's to you Dad SVG Kit.  I took the Beer Mug gift box and left off the handle. I cut the froth out twice and glued them together to get the effect of whipped cream topping.  I punched two holes in the top for the straws  I just think it is so cute.  I hope you do to.  

SVG Attic files are just a breeze to work with.  And they are all so very adorable.  Take the time to browse the store.  You will not be disappointed.

Thank you for stopping.

Have a fabulously crafty day !! ♥

Barnyard Card with Beth

This is Beth from Beth's Beauties and my sweet little nephew turned 5 and boy oh boy, he is country all the way!  I made this special barnyard card for him :)

 All of the cutting files were from SVG Attic's Down On The Farm set.  I welded two barn sections together to create the card base and the card is 5".

 See that sweet cow and little chicken?  I think they turned out so cute!  I embossed the red barn layer with an embossing folder to simulate barn siding.

Last, but not least I hand cut the pennants and stamped a letter on each one to display his name across the banner.  The Trendy Twine was the perfect finishing touch for it!

I hope you have a wonderfully crafty day!

Feeling Patriotic -- with Julie

Hello, SVG Attic fans! Julie Odil here today from Muddy Paws & Inky Fingers. I hope you were able to participate in the 10,000 fans Facebook celebration this weekend! It's so exciting to be a small part of the success of this amazing company!

We just celebrated Flag Day at the nursing home where I work, and Independence Day is right around the corner.  I've been feeling patriotic lately.  That was the inspiration behind this card I made for my post today. 

Like I said, I'm in a patriotic state of mind, LOL! I used the SVG Attic Vintage Nation kit, combining several different components of it to create this card.

Check this blog often for amazing inspiration from the design team!
