Happily Ever After and Once Upon a Time

Every so often, I'd come across an LD set that doesn't need words to show off its magnificence. This morning Lettering Delights released two such collections. The new Happily Ever After and Once Upon A Time are so beautiful there really is no need for my idle chatter. Instead, let me share some pictures to show you what a nice job LD has done with these SVGs.

 

 

See what I mean? No words. There are no words good enough to show you how easy it is to layer these cut outs, and how pretty the assembled pieces look. Grab your Happily Ever After and Once Upon a Time Collections, by clicking HERE and see how amazing these cut files are.

p.s. Use the coupon CIRCUSFUN to take $5 off a $20 purchase.

You're on a ROLL!

It's funny where and when inspiration strikes. Living in a house with 3 joke-loving kids kinda makes you look for the humor in what people say. Perhaps it is because I have been hearing a lot of jokes lately from the girls ("Mom! Why did the chicken go to the playground? To get to the other slide!") that when I saw Carmen's comment on my Facebook, I was inspired.

"You're on a roll!" heehee. I did have sushi on my mind that day when Carmen posted. After all, I had been looking forward to a trip to our favorite Japanese restaurant that weekend. It is a good thing too, that Lettering Delights has exactly what I needed to make this card.

Using the Bento Box SVG set, I imported the makizushi and chopsticks into Silhouette Studio Designer Edition (SSDE). I modified the layers slightly so that the "rice" sits inside the roll instead of above it (Thanks for the idea, Hubby!). The Scrap Samurai font was used for the sentiment while the Kanji for "Sushi" came from this site. I changed the color and added texture to the latter with Photoshop.

This semi-pnc (print-and-cut) card came together quickly once all the layers were cut out. A little bit of printing here and a little bit of cutting there, some foam tape and voila! It's done.

Thanks for the inspiration, Carmen! Hope this card gave all of you a chuckle. If you don't already have the Bento Box SVG set, just click here to get it.

Have a great day, everyone!

Pretty Pops!

YAY! Summer is around the corner and I'm so happy that I'm finally posting these Pretty Pops! I've waited since last Fall to share these pictures with you! Are you ready? Let's go!

Lettering Delights released the Pretty Pops Cut Its in late Summer/early Fall last year. I love these Zoku-inspired cut files! I think of my Zoku pops every time I see this set. If you missed my post on the Zoku, please click here to read that article.

There are 15 files in the Pretty Pops Cut Its set, including 12 different popsicle designs. If I told you that I was so amused when I first saw the set that I cut out EVERY popsicle, would you believe me? Yeah, I did. Call me crazy but I cut out everything with Make-the-Cut and my Silhouette cutter as soon as I got my hands on the set.

Layering the popsicles is pretty straightforward although some popsicles are easier to assemble than others.

Generally, those "fruity pops" take a little bit more time to put together than the "non-fruity" ones.

However, they are a lot of fun to make and oh so yummy to look at! Just check these pops out, don't they look delicious?

If you have little ones in the house, be warned that it may be hard to keep those little hands away from these pops. I had a hard time telling my girls to stay away from my popsicles when I was making them. All three of them hovered around my craft table until I promised to give them the finished pops. LOL!

So there you have it, all 12 popsicles together in one picture. Don't they look good enough to eat? Go get your LD Pretty Pops from HERE now!

Look what's on sale for $2! It's the Pretty Pops!

I had cut out all the "Pops" last year when the set was first released but didn't get around to making a full post about them. Instead, I posted a single picture of all the popsicles in my Candied Apples article. I will check the archives and will show y'all more pictures of the finished cut outs in my next post. In the meantime, click HERE to get your $2 Pretty Pops Cut Its (SVGs).

The LD 50 cents Clearance Sale will end tomorrow at midnight MST. Click HERE to grab your 50 cents LD graphics, papers, fonts, or alphabets before the sale is gone.

LD Manic Monday: Bottle Up Bundle $2 (reg. $8)

It's Monday and it has been a crazy one alright. I think I've fixed the newsletter glitch but I will only know for sure when Feedburner sends it out later. I'm really sorry about all the confusion that was caused by the glitch. I have little control over how Feedburner works and in fact,  I have been trying to send this morning's notice to all the email subscribers but I can't find a way to make Feedburner email it before tonight. Grrr...

On a separate note, the Plum District Silhouette Offer is still good. There are about 3 days left to buy a $50 voucher to the Silhouette Store for $30 (and possibly less with a coupon). If you have not taken advantage of the deal, click here to find out more info.

For those of you who did not see today's LD offer on Facebook, here it goes:

Did you know that today is National Waitstaff Day? No? Yeah, me either. Ahhh, the things I learn from Lettering Delights! LOL! Click HERE or the image above to get your Manic Monday deal now.
