Pumpkin Mandala Card

Follow along and make this pumpkin mandala for fall, Halloween, or Thanksgiving. It is so versatile it works for card making or home decor. #sponsored #cutcardstock

with printable and free SVG

Today I am using an SVG file to create a Pumpkin Mandala Card. This design works well for Halloween, Fall, or Thanksgiving. I’ve used the mandala for a card but you could make it larger for a beautiful decor piece. Or just framing the card would be nice too.

Many of the items I use in my posts are provided by the manufacturers in order to promote their products.
A special thanks to those brands who sponsor this site.

Orange, brown, and gold card stocks are being featured this month on CutCardStock. I am using Cosmic Orange and Stardream Metallic Card Stock in Bronze. I really like the iridescent quality of the Stardream card stocks.

I cut the CutCardStock on a Cricut Maker. The Cosmic Orange was cut at 100# and the Metallic Bronze was cut twice at 100#. While the mat is still in the Maker, just hit the go button again.

Rose Lined Card

Make a rose lined card with CutCardStock and a free SVG file. #affiliate #sponsored @CutCardStock

with CutCardStock

As a part of the CutCardStock design team, I created an SVG file to create a rose-lined card. What a great file to be used for a greeting note, a sympathy note, or a wedding. In other words, it is so versatile in its use. You can choose to use an insert paper for additional color as I have with the red, or just leave the card as is. It is simple to make because your personal cutting machine does the work for you. All you need to do is possibly weed out a few pieces and fold.

White and Ivory card stocks are being featured this month on CutCardStock. I am using Classic Linen Card Stock in Solar White. You can change the card’s look by changing the color of the card stock or adding an insert liner.

Cricut Maker

On a Cricut Maker, set the file to cut at 100# cardstock and then cut the file twice. Without removing the mat after the first cut, just push the go button again.

remove from the mat

As mentioned above there are only a few materials needed to create this project. Use a personal cutting machine that works with an SVG file. The card is designed as A2 size. If your mat has lost a bit of adhesion, I recommend using washi tape on all four sides of the card stock to hold it in place.

I chose to cut a liner piece out of construction paper a bit smaller than the card. I used the Best Glue Ever in all four corners to attach it to the front inside panel of the card. Just fold along the scoreline and you are done.

A close-up of the finished card with the liner inserted is shown above. You can see the details and delicate thin lines that are cut with this design.

Sign SVG Hop

It’s time to make some signs for fall. Here is my take on the Farm Fresh idea. I like the interaction between positive and negative shapes making up the three animals stacked upon each other. I’ve shown it here in all black vinyl, but you could add color to the Farm Fresh design. Grab this free SVG file and visit all the other free SVG files listed below.

With a Free SVG

My daughter graduated from High School this year. Here graduating class was small. On the day of graduation she wanted to give each girl a graduation gift of a nice pen. The pens didn’t have a gift box, so Cricut to the rescue. We made gift boxes.

Materials:

  • cardstock
  • Cricut Maker
  • tape runner
  • pen
  • dowel
  • tweezers
  • free SVG file

grab this free SVG file [Pen Box]

After cutting the card stock, fold all the flaps in to the same side.

Tape or glue along the shortest fold.

Tucking the taped flap inside, press the other edge to the fold.

After taping the flap and folding it into the box, use a dowel stick to push the tape in place for a better hold.

Place the pen into the box, then tape the other end flap.

Bunny Napkin Ring

Make bunny napkin rings for you Easter table to add color and a bit of fun. #free #SVG

Do you need last-minute decor for your Easter table? These bunny napkin rings might be just what you need. They are quick and easy to make and will add color to your table. You can craft them by cutting them out on your personal cutting machine or print out the template and cut them out with a pair of scissors. If you are short on time, get the kids involved and let them help cut out the shapes. They will be so proud of their accomplishment and their addition to the Easter table. 

There are two different bunny napkin rings in the files. The first one is in the photograph above. If you want the bunny head turned 90 degrees to align with the length of the napkin, that is included too.

After cutting out your paper shape, wrap the paper around your napkin and secure with a little tape.

This month the group of SVG blog hoppers are sharing posts with the theme kitchen signs. Now I know an apron really isn’t a kitchen sign but the SVG will work as a sign as well, don’t you think? Besides, I love this SVG on an apron, especially one a man is wearing!

Making a Party Hat with Cut Cardstock

Make a fun party hat for your celebration. @cutcardstock @cricutmade #sponsored

As a part of the Cut Cardstock design team, I have a post on their blog today making a star party hat. This hat file is very flexible. You can make it with the stars, or without. You can leave the star shapes open or layer tissue paper on the inside to color the stars.

Thanks to Cricut and Cut Cardstock for providing materials that were used in this post.

The card stock I used (affiliate links):

Cricut Maker
  • Cutting 100# card stock on the Maker, I found it best to cut it twice at the 100# card stock setting and selecting more pressure.

Love Shirt :: SVG Blog Hop

A free SVG file about love just in time for Valentine’s Day. This post is a part of an SVG blog hop.

You might not know Robert Indiana but I bet you are familiar with his Love sculpture. Based on is idea, I created this love graphic with the o being replaced with a heart. It’s great anytime of the year but especially for Valentine’s Day.

A bit about Robert Indiana:

Robert Indiana, an American painter, sculptor, and printmaker, is frequently associated with Pop Art, though he has said he prefers calling himself a “sign painter.” Indiana is most famous for his Love sculpture series, which can be seen in more than 30 locations around the world.
