SVG Attic - Creepy Candelabra

This will be my last project for SVG Attic. I'm sad to be leaving as it's been great working with the SVG Attic Design Team and files. 

So for this project I've made something for Halloween, a creepy Candelabra.

I have used a fantastic kit called Creepy Candelabras. Don't forget SVG Attic have a 50% off sale on most of their files at the moment too.

This project is called Creepy Chandelier but I found it stands perfectly for a table decoration too. You can put a little battery powered tea light in the middle. So I cut it out using my favourite coloured card , purple. But then I thought it would look great with a scary spider and web :0). So I used two SIL  files from Snapdragon Snippets. The Spider Web Corner file  #46584  which I added some glitter to and also the Spiders file #46585  and I added glossy accents to him.

SVG Attic - Above It All

Today I get to show you one of my favourite 3D projects for my blog  post on the SVG Attic blog.

I had great fun making it and although it looks daunting it really isn't as there is a great tutorial on Jodie's Needles 'n' Knowledge blog. Jodie's written and photo instructions are very clear and precise.

So here it is

This hot air balloon is a gift box and is part of a kit called Above It All.

I have used Papermill pale turquoise card and the papers are My Minds Eye - Lucky in Love.

I love how it turned out and at the moment it has it's place on my mantlepiece.

SVG Attic have some stunning kits and it's well worth having a look at the store and their Facebook page. I cut this file using my Cameo Silhouette but lots of the newer files also have the Cricut Explore cutting files to use too.

Hi it is my turn to post on the SVG Attic blog today and for my inspiration I have used the Fall Harvest Favour Boxes kit.

I mixed it up a bit and used the cart with the apple gift boxes. I cut the files on my Silhouette Cameo.

And here's a close up of the apple gift boxes.

Spring Fling - SVG Attic

Today's post is for my first blog project with SVG Attic.
I have made a gorgeous little project that you could use as a centre piece for your garden table (if the weather is good!) or even to use inside to brighten any room up.
I have used the Spring Fling kit

Here's my project. You can find the blog post here.

Firstly I made up the tray box using a Kraft cardstock. I distressed it a little using some distress ink around the edges. The pinwheels have littel beaded embellishments in the middle to make them look extra pretty and I used green bendy straws to make them stand up in the tray. I made the kite and used acetate to stand it up and some blue twine to make it's tail and string.

I'm hoping you like what I made with the Spring Fling kit and have a go at making one yourself. It really is a lovely, summery kit.

Cute Card Thursday

Today's project is for the Cute Card Thursday Challenge and the theme is......

Vintage

So here's my project, a Vintage Mad Hatter's Hat. It is 9 inches tall and 11 inches wide.

I have used a SVG Attic kit called Mad Tea Party kit. I've used the files that make the hat base, the price tag and the rolled flowers for this one. All cut on my Silhouette Cameo.

The black card is from Papermill Direct and I have embossed it and then used pewter gilding wax to bring the embossing out. I cut out the price using Papermill kraft card.

For the stamped images which are from Artistic Outpost I used Papermill luxury artist pad which is like a watercolour card. I stamped them with TH vintage photo distress ink and then used a water pen to drag the colour. 

For the embellishments I cut the rolled flower file and used the same distress ink to colour the edges of the flowers. The lace has also been coloured with the ink. The hat pins were originally pink or white but I covered them in embossing ink and then embossed them with distress gold embossing powder. A little sprinkle of frantage fragments on the brim and it's finished.

Our sponsor this week is Sunflower Field.

Im also entering this project into a couple of challenges

The Artistic Stamper Challenge - Anything Goes
