New Project and Freebie

Hey all, Welcome back to my blog.. So I am trying to become a better blogger so my goal.... is to at least post on the weekends and if possible more.. So we will see how that goes.

Yesterday I worked on another video hopefully this time I stayed on camera more.. This video will show the same box one for those without Digital Cutters and then after shows how to for those with Digital Cutters.

It is a cute little box. The cutter file has a ghost cut out of the center but you can always eliminate that and put other stuff in the center if you would like.

The cutter file links and link to the pdf will appear below the video.
Here is a picture of a few of the ones I made





Here is the video




Now on to the links for the cutter and pdf files

Free Hand Made Paper Bow Cutting File

I have posted another free file on the Designing With Die Cuts site. It is a cutter file for making the handmade bows that have been on the internet. Previously I have made them using a standard paper cutter and that takes some time so I decided this year I was going to turn it into a file for our Electronic Digital Cutters so you can pick up this freebie here. I have also made a video showing you how I put them together but it is generally the same as the others except this one is a tad smaller to accomodate the cutters out there. This file is available in AI,GSD,KNK,SCUT,SVG and WPC so go on over and check it out. I will be posting another freebie later this week but thought I would share this one with you now..



Here is a pic of my finished bow..




Enjoy and thanks for stopping by..

Thirsty Thursday Freebie

OK so I totally didn't get to the free file last week and I am so sorry. I had a flat tire, stressful week at work and a crash on a special project I have been working on. I am not making excuses but everything I touched last week went to pots.. So I am begging your forgiveness and hope this weeks freebie will help. This weeks freebie doesn't have the SCUT file in it but I did seperate the SVGs for easier import into Sure Cuts alot. So that should make it easier. When my laptop crashed and I had to reformat I was unable to reactivate the software and now I am waiting to hear from the company on how to resolve the issue. I just found out tonight when I was converting all the files so.... If I hear from them in the next couple of days I will update the file and let you know.





With that said heres to a good week. Make sure you check back cause there will be some awesome stuff happening soon. Also if you are not a member of the VDBC forum you may want to hop over and register... (hint)

It's still Thursday bet you thought I forgot my weekly freebie.. Not a chance but last night was crazy so I didn't get it uploaded then but I have it for you now. Better later than never right. Work has been crazy so there hasn't been much of my mind left when I get home so I haven't added many new files to the store yet. Only 2 more weeks of 10 hour days so hopefully by the end of August I will be in a more creative mode. Anyhow here is this weeks freebie and as always thanks for coming by and checking it out. Also I am still working to convert this file to SCUT so I will update it as soon as I get that one finished.

Now available for purchase in the store!

Thanks again for stopping by!!

Welcome to our Nest! Great file for creating a framed picture to new homeowners. Cute Sandhill Cranes with a nest.

Simply Magical. Great for those scrapbooking pages of your children learning to perform thier first magic tricks.

Congratulations Grad. Border file and a few extra hats for all those great graduation pictures.

Drop On In Sometime. Great for giving someone the hint you want them to call you more. Or you could use it for all those teens that always have the phone attached to the side of thier head all the time.

Deer N Snowflake. Great way to get started on all those Christmas Cards. Don't wait until the last minute. Have them ready to go before December.

1 in a Melon. Great for telling someone how much they mean to you in a funny way or for those summertime watermelon eating photos. Melon is not attached so you can use it alone or with the title. Also the seeds are cut from the red piece with a black piece behind it so you won't have to paste all those little seeds!
