Studio Calico December {Park Ave} Is Here!

I'm back to share some of the projects I created using the new December kits from Studio Calico.  This release has some of the cutest things included & they were so fun to work with.

If you're looking for a quick gift, this handmade desk set might be just the trick!  I used some of the new digital stamp brushes with my Silhouette die cutter & cut out these little cuties from vinyl.
 The notebook is just a kraft Moleskin notebook that I covered with paper from the card kit & a little washi tape from my stash.  The whole project can be finished in under 15 minutes!
 This is another great last minute holiday project.  Shipping tags are a great base for dressing up any gift!  I printed this owl (made from the same digital brush set as above) onto white cardstock & used stamps from some of the new stamp sets to dress it up.  The polka-dot bags are from the card kit & really bring this packaging up to the next level.
 These next two projects were made solely from this month's card kit.  The set isn't necessarily holiday themed, but it's easily alterable to be used for many occasions.
 As I mentioned in an earlier post, I am head over heals in love with Lizzy Mackay's art.  She has stamps found in the Waldorf add-on and the Birthday Stamp set.  Here are a couple of other projects I made with her stamps:
 This card was made with the new Talk Nerdy to Me stamp set.  My husband works at an engineering school and said this stamp set would go over really well there. ;)
These are just a small peek at all of the fun new products that are now available at Studio Calico.  You can find all of the kits & add-ons here.

Happy shopping! :)

USA Canvas Bag Tutorial

Happy Birthday America!  I'm excited to celebrate our country while enjoying a long weekend filled with food, family & fireworks.

Today, I have a quick project for you that's perfect for this holiday or any day!

Studio Calico recently released this awesome digital stamp called Funnel Cake.  It's only available during July, so be sure to take a look!
I opened the image in my Silhouette software & mirrored the image.  For this project, I knew 2 images could fit one one page, so I duplicated the image.  Then, using the trace feature, I created a cut line along the outside edge.  In order to utilize the print & cut feature in the software, I enabled the registration marks.

If you don't have a Silhouette, no worries!  Just mirror the image using your own photo editing software.
At this point, you're ready to print.  I printed onto Avery's T-shirt Transfer Paper for light fabrics.

If you're using the Silhouette, the machine will also cut out the image for you.  If not, you can easily trim it out by hand.

If you've ever purchased items from the Studio Calico shop, you'll recognize these drawstring canvas bags.  (Small items are packaged inside these bags.)  I have a big collection of them now & they're perfect for re-purposing!

Follow the instructions that come with the heat transfer paper & iron the USA image onto the canvas bag.
Once cooled, you can remove the transfer paper, revealing the map image.
Pretty fun, right?
Now I want to transfer everything in sight.  New digital stamps are released each month & it's such a fun & easy DIY craft.  I can see some birthday goodie bags in my future....  :)

Lawn Fawn: So Thankful Gift Packaging

Good morning & welcome to day #4 of the Lawn Fawn inspiration week!  Today we're sharing projects made with the new So Thankful set.


I love that this set is perfect for any type of fall project - Halloween, Thanksgiving, or anytime!

I used a bit of Studio Calico paper to create a tag & paper pieced the pumpkins.  These little canvas bags were something I've had in my stash (Michaels or Hobby Lobby?) & I love how simple it was to create some fun packaging.


As always, make sure to check out the Lawn Fawn blog for your chance to win all of the products showcased this week!  You'll also find inspiration from the design team as well as a fun video by Kelly Marie.

Lawn Fawn - Sweet Christmas Treat Bag Trio

We're beginning another inspiration week with all of the festive Lawn Fawn winter stamp sets!  Today the team is focussing on the new Sweet Christmas stamp set.  No one does a cute Christmas quite like Lawn Fawn... and this stamp set is oozing with adorable images!


There are so many fun ways to use this stamp set!  I decided to get a jump start on my holiday packaging by creating some tiny treat bags.


For each treat bag, I cut out tags/circles out of the new Fa La La 6x6 paper pad & topped them with an image from the set.


I stamped additional images on the treat bags themselves & colored them with Copics.  For a little sparkle, I added bits of glitter here & there.


I tied brown & red/white Lawn Trimmings cord on each tag.  This cord is so soft, yet nice & sturdy. I love it!

Lawn Fawn: "Chevron Backdrops"

I have a peek for you today of one of Lawn Fawn's new spring releases called "Chevron Backdrops."  Chevrons are super popular right now & I know I'm going to be using this set a lot!

(click on photo for clearer view)

This card & gift set is super simple, but I love how the chevron stamps give it a lot of style.  You could make a full card set in no time at all... which is perfect for when you need a gift in a hurry!

I made the little "purse" with my Silhouette & added a sentiment from the "Cruising Through Life" set.  The sentiment on the card is from the "Many Thanks" set.

Make sure to check out the Lawn Fawn blog for a video & inspiration from all the other designers.  I can't wait to see what they've come up with!
