At The Zoo Candy Caddies - Doodlebug Design Team Project

Hello, here's a couple of candy caddies I made for my Doodlebug design team project which is featured on their blog today!! I made these for the off the page challenge, for those that don't know an off the page project can be anything but a traditional scrapbook page.


These treat holders are great for a child's birthday party and the At The Zoo collection makes them that much more special! I used a die from Jaded Blossom to cut out the three caddies from the zippity zoo dotszoo friends and roly poly pandas paper.


To decorate I used borders from the safari plaid sheet and stickers from the icon sheet 1 and icon sheet 2.  On this one, I used tangerine chunky twine.


This has swimming pool chunky twine.


And the last I used bon bon chunky twine.

For the inside box that holds the candy I used paper from the rainbow swiss dots petite prints pack.

I hope you've enjoyed these candy caddies, have a wonderful day!

Apple Slider Gift Card Holder - Lori Whitlock Creative Team

Hello, Everyone!  I'm up over at Lori Whitlock's blog today sharing this cute gift card holder I created using the back to school apple and worm file. You can also get this file from the Silhouette Design Store here. I made a couple of adjustments in Silhouette Studio Designer Edition to make it a slide out gift card holder.


I created rhinestone holes, (size 1 spacing .2) around an internal offset of the apple so I could stitch together a front and back layer using some Doodlebug twine.


The stitching at the top of the apple is only on the front, I needed a gap so the apple core with gift card could slide in and out.


To create the apple core I made an internal offset of the apple and used one of the nested scalloped circles, (silhouette store here) to subtracted bites from it, I did this a couple of times. The placeholders are from one of the Christmas ornament gift card set, (silhouette store here).

A cute way to give a back to school gift!  The patterned paper used is by Doodlebug and sentiment is from My Creative Time.

Christmas Tags with Twine Stitching - Doodlebug Design Team Project

Hello, I have a couple of Doodlebug Design Christmas tags to share with you today. For this Stitched Twine Challenge, I used a couple of cutting files from the Here Comes Santa Claus collection, you can get this from the Silhouette Online Store or Lori Whitlock's Online Shop in svg format.


I used three of the here comes santa claus ornament cut files and made cutouts for each tag using my Silhouette Cameo. Silhouette Studio has a nice rhinestone feature, I used that to create the holes for my stitches, size 1 spacing .2 worked perfectly for me.


The tags have three layers, top with the cutout and stitching on the gingham, patterned paper for the middle and a shadow layer using textured cardstock.


For the stitching, I used a simple back stitch and on the chunky twine I knotted and frayed the ends.


The little tags were printed then cut with my Cameo, which I layered onto another tag cut from silver sprinkles vellum.

Swimming By - My Creative Time Trending Now

Hello and welcome, my project I'd like to share today is a MCT trending now under the sea card.  This was a quick and easy card to make using the Sea You Soon set.  I used some distress oxide inks to great the background and spraying with some water, I then stamped the fish and colored with a gray watermarker.  The turtle was cut out with the coordinating die that comes in the set.
