wreath card

Cutcardstock’s featured theme this month is white and ivory. This month I created an SVG file that is more of a kit than one item. The file has a variety of different flora pieces that can be put together in a variety of different ways. You can use the card without any of the additional elements added. I chose to color the flower and leaves for the card I made.

Basic White card stock

The soft white color, matte vellum finish, and medium weight of this Basic White card stock cuts really well in electronic cutting machines.

cricut maker

I used a Cricut Maker with a 100lb card stock setting and a pressure setting of more. I wanted to make sure the small detailed pieces were cut thoroughly.

There are multiple pieces in the file. The card has a cut-away circle with a woven center. The flora pieces can be added in a variety of different arrangements, or not at all, making this file very flexible for crafting.

Here are the pieces I chose to work with from the file. Using Distress Oxide ink, I blended the ink onto the cut pieces with a brush.

This close-up shows the detail and the dimension of the card.
You also get a nice look at the yellow gem in the flower’s center.

I really like how the light is showing through the woven circle. It would also look nice with a colored inset inside.

final card

I have another pretty card that could be used for a wedding, an anniversary, or just a special greeting. You can add your own sentiment or leave it as is. There are options for adding 3 dimensions to this card by lifting up some of the cutting. I have also added gems to finish the card off.

The paper I used was Basis White Card Stock for the card. Basis White is so versatile. I love it for the foundation of most of my card making. It cuts and scores beautifully.

cricut maker

At 80#, I choose to set my Cricut Maker at a card stock setting of 100# which works well even for small detailed cuts. Don’t forget to set the red line to score before sending the file to cut.

The addition of the gems to the centers isn’t necessary but a nice option. If you don’t want to use your personal cutter for the smaller square piece, I cut mine on a paper trimmer to 3″ x 3″. The finished card is 4″ x 6″.

This view shows the detail of the 3-D effect of the lifting on the front of the card. I like the dimension gained as well as the see-through element of the cut-away pieces.

And here is a close-up view of the finished card with the lifting finished and the gems in place. I am wondering what coloring option and details you will use, please comment below.

fall shaker tag

I think fall is my favorite season. I love the crisp air and all the fall colors. This fall shakers tag file I am sharing with you today is so versatile. You can make the tag as a shaker, or just use the front panel for a tag. Then, you have a variety of different ways to use your tag. On a card, a gift, in a journal, with mixed media…

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

cardstock bronze

With its shimmering fibers and rich brown hue, the Stardream Metallic card stock is one of my favorite brands of card stock from CutCardStock. The fall tag is made with the bronze Stardream card stock.

Cricut Maker

Use a personal cutting machine that works with an SVG file. The tag’s size can be adjusted. I made mine 3.5″ wide, and cut mine on a Cricut Maker at 100# card stock. I’d recommend cutting the file twice. After the first cut, don’t remove the mat but push the go button to cut again. If your mat has lost some adhesion, I recommend using washi tape on all four sides of the card stock to hold it in place.

A few materials are needed to create this project, and changing what you use can change the look as well as make the project fun! Coordinate the shaker elements with the ribbon to personalize your tag.

Materials:

  • Cutting Machine – Cricut Maker
  • free SVG file
  • card stock
  • adhesive
  • clear acetate
  • foam tape
  • shaker elements
  • ribbons
  • scissors
  • marker – optional

You can recycle the clear acetate from some packaging. The cut shape is not included in the SVG file. Just use your tag as a guide to cut the size you need.

Lace Envelope SVG

A free SVG file to cut a lace-top envelope. @CutCardStock #sponsored #affiliate

As a part of the CutCardStock design team, I am sharing this SVG file for a lace-top envelope. The entire post can be found on the CutCardStock site. The SVG file is linked at the bottom of this post.

Cricut Maker

I cut the lace envelope on a Cricut Maker. The card stock was 80# and I used a setting of 100#. It cut beautifully with no weeding needed. The file is designed to be used with a 4″ x 6″ card.
