Print and Cut Word Shape Card Tutorial

I hope you enjoy this video tutorial. It guides you through the process of creating a word shape card including a print and cut element. I hope that you enjoy it! Let me know if you have any questions. The graphic that I used can be found at www.everydaymomideas.com. I will be posting a few more videos in the next few days.

Geisha LOVE

I am finally posting my Valentine's Day card. This started as a cut file from the Silhouette Store, made it into a card and created the word "love" in japanese to make it special. This was a fun one :)

Yet another card my deer

I am in LOVE with Deery Lou! She is just the cutest deer ever. This was one of those projects that I simply had to do. OOOOOh I love this one!!

Hello Kitty

My little niece is a bit of a Hello Kitty freak. After she saw a card I made for a friend, the calls began and I set out to make her a unique Kitty card. Here is the final product! I know she will love it :) This was a simple coloring book design and I used Studio to make the cut file.

Austin is 17

My sweet little Austin just turned 17! It is hard to believe that my little guy will be an adult in less than a year. He LOVEs special cards (he saves them all), so I created one just for him and yes, it is a shape card too!

Silhouette

I am having the time of my life with my Silhouette. I don't know what I would do without it! I want to give you a quick peek at what I have been up to lately!

This card is for my new baby niece Kate! I am on a shape card kick lately! Why make a card boring right!!

Masquerade

This is the latest pattern based project. I really love the way that it came out and so does Madyrose! The pattern in Simplicity 2577, with lots of modifications. Fabric is a royal blue satin. I used the basic pattern pieces, but adjusted them to fit her because she is soooo thin. I used a child's size 8 for this project. She wanted the dress shorter, so I adjusted for this as well. I also fully lined the dress to make it more comfortable for her. The end result was terrific!

Recomendations : I would recommend this pattern. I LOVE the pockets and it is pretty straightfoward. The directions are not the best, but if you have some garment construction knowledge, you can figure it out fairly easy. I would rate this pattern as an intermediate skill level. If you use cottons instead of satin, avoid the lining, and use premade trims or cording, I would say beginning intermediate skill level. Really check the measurements on this pattern. If your child wears a RTW 10, but her measurements put her in a 6, make the six and lengthen the bodice and skirt to get the appropriate legnths.
