Halloween treats!

Hi Friends,

I've been so busy at home and haven't been able to post for a while but I found some time to share a quick 'Halloween treats' post with you today that I made for my son's class!

For the kids treats I used a spider and bat image from Pretty Paper Pretty Ribbons and a cauldron, and owl from Miss Kate Cuttables. For the teachers treat I used this file from the Silhouette Design Store which is a Lori Whitlock file and the monster title from Miss Kate Cuttables.

I also made some paper clips using jumbo clips in orange and purple and added some dotted ribbon.

I added a Halloween marshmallow chocolate bar into the envelope and sealed it with a print and cut sticker. The sticker paper I used was a very thin one from Staples.

To carry all these treats to school my son will be using his Halloween bag. I used printable transfer paper (for dark material ... seems to works better than the light version!) and used my heat press to adhere it to the bag. The image is from Studio Ilustrado and can be found in their store as well as the Silhouette Design store and is currently on SALE!

Thank you for visiting today.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Thanksgiving in Canada!

Hello Friends, 

Canada is celebrating Thanksgiving this weekend and I've been prepping some little treats for my son's class.

Studio Ilustrado had the perfect files for this project. I used the Leaf box with lid and Treat holder leaf files.

These files can also be found in the Silhouette Design Store as well as other gorgeous boxes and treat holders for every occasion designed by Studio Ilustrado.

I chose my papers from my collection and cut and glued the box and filled it with a mix of Lindt chocolate.

After completing the box I cut and folded the treat holders. I love the way my Cameo cuts the small and detailed leaves without any issues. I used double-sided tape and attached a chocolate caramel ball to the base of each holder.

I hope you enjoyed these special treats today. Please visit Studio Ilustrado on their social media links below or in the Silhouette Design store.

Thank you for visiting! 

Happy Crafting!

Creative Team - NEW Glam Kit Project!

Dear Crafty Friends,

Today I'm EXCITED to share the latest kit from Studio Ilustrado - Glam Kit. 

I was looking forward to use this kit as there are so many beautiful paper patterns and elements to choose from. This kits' theme and variety would be fabulous for any party!

I used the following files from Studio Ilustrado to display the NEW KIT!

Dress Box, Flower Bag, Happy Birthday Cake

I created a quick 'To do list' to keep a record of what had to be done. I love the patterned paper I used on the edge of the list - the flowers are gorgeous and can also be used to make invitations to match the treat bag.

I used one of the label elements and the sparkly gold numbers and made cards for the table which can be left standing on their own or attached to a thin dowel. There are even letters so name cards could also be made.

I loved all the patterned paper so I had to use a combination of the stripes and dots to make the cute birthday cake treat boxes.

 There are so many beautiful elements in this kit (60) - I wish I could use them all - the variety of choice is excellent.

Thank you for visiting today! 

Happy Crafting!

Butterflies will fly!

Hello my crafty friends,

Today I'm sharing my latest creative team project for Studio Ilustrado. This file can be found in the Silhouette Design Store or on their website.

Butterflies Card - Studio Ilustrado

I chose my colours and patterned paper and worked on my two cards. I really loved this file as it had so much detail to cut on the butterflies as well as easy to put together.

On the blue card I decided to make the outer butterflies with vellum so you could still see the patterned paper underneath. For the pink card I kept the paper plain with the dots and added some Wink of Stella to give the card a little bit of sparkle, and added some green coloured pearls!

Please visit Studio Ilustrado for more of their great designs which include cut files, digital paper and a few freebies too!

'Gender reveal' treat boxes! - CT project!

Hello friends,

I'm here to show you some gorgeous 3D Zebra and Zebra print treat boxes. The files are from Studio Ilustrado and can be found here and here.

I chose the Cute Zebra 3D box and the Zebra print digital paper from their website and decided to make a few different coloured Zebras that can be used for any party!

I love purple so I decided to try one of the Zebras as a print and cut file and kept the rest white with different coloured hair/tail.

Once they were all cut out and put together I filled their bellies with popcorn and sprinkled some chocolate covered candy around!

The Zebra comes with lots of little pieces for the stripes and was easy to cut and put together., I even curled some of their hair and tails :-)

I hope you liked my cute 'gender reveal' treat boxes!

Studio Ilustrado is on Facebook and is very active with all their new creations:

New CT project for Studio Ilustrado

Hello Friends,

So I've some EXCITING news to share!

I reached out to Studio Ilustrado recently as I had created a cute project last month using one of their files - the Sand Castle Box file, which they loved! I really liked working with this file and the ease of cutting and putting it together - so after some chats with them I am now part of their Creative Team and I'm sharing my first project with you today!

I'd chosen this file through the Silhouette Store last month during their great sale as I wanted to create it for my husband for Father's Day.

It's a great file to cut and all the pieces can fit onto a 12x12 size mat. If you position your paper choices correctly on your mat then you only need to send it to your Silhouette once to cut everything.

Studio Ilustrado have added some new designs to the Silhouette Store and their website - check them out for some SUPER cute files - they offer a great selection too:

Back to my Tuxedo Box, I used some shiny blue cardstock and found a glitter pattern cardstock in my stash which I thought would look cool as the bowtie, vest and pocket handkerchief. 

I'm sure my husband is going to love this cute box and then use it to store something else once the candy is finished :). 

Thank you for visiting today. I hope you find some great files over at Studio Ilustrado and share them with us.

See you soon,

Happy Crafting!
