The Cut Shoppe | Bon Apetit!

Hi Everyone,

I have a layout to share with you today using the Get To The Point 12x12 cut file from The Cut Shoppe!

To create my layout, I cut the background out of white cardstock paper.  I then placed the yellow patterned paper behind it.  I printed a small instagram photo and layered it on top of tabs and tags.  I splattered black ink across the page and then embellished with lots of bits and pieces.

Get To The Point 12x12

Neat & Tangled and The Cut Shoppe Inspiration Week

Hi everyone,
This week The Cut Shoppe and Neat & Tangled have teamed up for a fun inspiration week.  I'm up on The Cut Shoppe's blog today sharing a layout that I created using the Happy Circles cut file and Scrap Circles Stamp set.

Friends

I wanted to use one of the cut files, as a stitching template.  I chose the Happy Circles cut file, which is one of the free Cut files, that go out in the weekly Newsletter.  Once I finished stitching the design, I added some circles punched from patterned paper, to go along with the stamped phrases from the Scrap Circles stamp set in the Neat & Tangled shop.

Supplies: The Cut Shoppe: Happy Circles cut file; Neat & Tangled: 4x6 Scrap Circles Stamp; Crafts: patterned paper, stickers, die cuts, thicker word, paper clip, precision pen, date stamp; Mister Huey's: Inky Black Spray Mist; Ink: StazOn, Hero Arts Shadow Ink; Other: embroidery thread

Hello Hello

Hi, I have a new layout to share with you today for The Cut Shoppe using The Love Club cut file.  I love using repeated patterns on my layouts.  I chose to use the "hello" word from this set to create a repeated pattern on my layout.

How To:  Flick white paint across a striped patterned paper background, set aside to dry.  Using Silhouette studio cut the "hello" word word five times from five different pieces of patterned paper.  Adhere notebook piece of paper to right side of a layout, use a tiny attacher to staple it down.  Print a small photo and adhere on top.  Trim a small strip from an overlay and adhere to right hand side of notebook paper.  Apply adhesive to wood veneer piece and adhere it to the bottom right hand side of layout just underneath the photo.  Adhere "focus on the happy" sticker on top.  Stamp the phrase "make it happen" in white ink across the page.  Adhere wood veneer clouds and die cut cloud to page.  Finish by adding machine stitching to a couple of the words.

Pineapple Art Print | The Cut Shoppe

Hi everyone,

I hope your Friday is off to a great start!  I have a new project on The Cut Shoppe blog today that I would like to share with you using the Prickly Pineapple cut file.

To create my art print I cut out the Prickly Pineapples cut file using my Silhouette Cameo.  Then I used it as a mask.  I painted over it with watercolor paints onto watercolor paper using a water brush. Once it was dry I framed it.  This simple art print will make a sweet addition to any room.

Make A Wish | The Cut Shoppe

Hi Everyone,

I have a new post up at The Cut Shoppe today, using their brand new Sew Loved cut file.

To create my layout I took the Sew Loved cut file and opened it in my Silhouette Studio software program.  I used a copy + paste option to repeat the pattern several times and then cut the file from patterned paper.  I also used the same method to cut the pattern several times from white cardstock.

I used watercolor paints on several of the hearts, and then grouped them all behind my photo!

Supplies: Sew Loved cut file: The Cut Shoppe; Patterned Papers & 

Embellishments: American Crafts

Love | The Cut Shoppe

Hi everyone,

Gina here, today is my first post for the new design team term at The Cut Shoppe and I am excited to share a new layout with you using the Lucky In Love cut file.

I used the Lucky in Love cut file to create my own background paper.  I placed the 12x12 file on my canvas in Silhouette Cameo and then selected sketch to use a black sketch pen to draw out the words.  Once the background was sketched out I used watercolors to fill in a couple of the words.  I also used my Silhouette to cut the Love word a couple of times from patterned paper and then attached them to the layout.  I added a few embellishments to help accentuate my page.

The Open Road | The Cut Shoppe Design Team

Hi friends,  I'm back today to share a recent layout that I made with you, using some brand new files from The Cut Shoppe!

The Open Road

I started my layout by cutting the Chevron in a Triangle cut file as my background.  Then I cut the Right on Target cut file and placed it behind my photo.  I then used Silhouette sketch pens with the Counting Stars cut file and Pack your Bags Tags cut file.  Once the sketch designs were dry I painted over them using watercolors and a waterbrush.  

I used a total of 4 cut files on my layout today.  I think that is the most that I have ever used on one layout and I just love how everything coordinates together!

I used:

Counting Stars

                                                                    Right On Target

Pack Your Bags Tags

Thanks for stopping by today!  I hope you enjoyed my layout.  If you have made a project using cut files from the shoppe we would love to see them.  Link us up on The Cut Shoppe Facebook page!

Hi,

I have a new layout to share for The Cut Shoppe today, made using two new cut files from the shop.  I have been in awe of all of the projects that I have seen lately in the scrapbooking world using the new hand cut lettering trend.  I was so excited when Ashley decided to add this adorable alphabet to the shop.

Here is the layout that I created using the new Now I Know My ABC's alpha.

Live Simply

My layout was inspired by a quote that I found on Pinterest.
How To:  I added some watercolors to my white background paper and then adhered my title using repositionable adhesive.  I used a ruler to make sure that my title was straight and then used a sewing machine to stitch the letters down.  I added a few embellishments, Funky Florals flowers and photos.  I finished by dropping a few flicks of black paint on the page.

Here are the cut files that I used on my layout:

Clique kits + The Cut Shoppe Blog Hop

Hi, and welcome to the Clique Kits + The Cut Shoppe Blog Hop!  We have lots of inspiration along the way, so I hope that you are able to stop by each and every blog.

I recently received the wonderful September Study Abroad kit from Clique Kits and couldn't wait to get started.  I combined the kit with some awesome cut files from The Cut Shoppe. 

For my first project, I created a layout about a subject that is very dear to my heart - coffee!


Coffee First

I simply cut the cut files out of white cardstock (heart doodles and coffee first card) and then added watercolors to them before adhering onto my page.  I love the originality and contrast that it brings to my layout.  I love that little coffee cup paperclip included in the kit, So fun!

Here are the files I used:

Notebook Doodles

Pick A Card

and my second layout features one of my favorite subjects... my dog Roxy!

Today go...

Once again, I combined the fun kit with cut files from the shop.  I also added some spray mist and droplets to my background to create a fun background for my photo.

I used 3 different cut file sets on this layout:
