Hello crafty friends !

It’s Sophie on the blog today with a new layout to share.

I focused on the beautiful Mandalla Heart 3 cut file that will be in the Just Nick Studio store very soon if not yet !

I cut the heart quite big to be able to fit my photo in.

I thought to leave it all white this time, to make it look like a beautiful soft lace that embraces the sweet photo of my daughter and our dog.

I used the Pinkfresh Studio “My Favorite Story” collection to create this layout. I used a striped patterned paper for my background that I cut in a 11 inches square, and backed it with a beautiful soft green floral paper. I added a blue patterned paper to the center of the heart to make my photo stand out.

I hand stitched with blue thread the junction of the blue paper with the cut file, and also hand stitched a few X’s around the edge of the page. I adore that subtle addition it gives to the page !

I backed my photo with tissue paper and pink patterned paper and embellished around it with a few floral clusters.

I wrote down my journaling on a piece of white cardstock on which I added velum paper and a beautiful pink puffy frame.

Finally, I added a few white Nuvo Drops as the finishing touch !

Here are more close-ups:

I love how it turned out ! Even though the Mandalla Heart Cut file is plain white, I think it is still the focus on my page and I totally adore it !

I hope you felt inspired by my page in some way today !

Thank you for stopping by !

Photo Embroidery Hoop! | Morgan Langley December 19, 2017 07:00

Hey crafty friends! Today I am showing a project that is perfect if you need a thoughtful handmade gift to give for Christmas! I used the "Snowflakes 2" and "Holiday Tags" cut files!

To start I got my embroidery hoop ($.97), fabric ($1), elastic ($1), and felt sheets ($.23) at Walmart. Then I opened and loosened my hoop, laid the elastic across where I wanted it and then placed the fabric on. I closed my hoop and pulled the fabric and elastic tight. Then, print your pictures!

These felt flowers are my favorite part and they are super easy to make! First start with the middle part of the flower cutting a strip and then cutting strips all the way down.

Then fold it into a circle and add some hot glue.

Then add your petals! Depending on how large you want your flower is how long to make the middle of the flower and how big you cut your petals!

Then add layers of petals to make it look more full!

For the leaves I cut the shape and then add some hot glue to the tip and fold it.

I also add little felt roll ups, (buds maybe?) to add texture. You just cut a strip that tapers a little and then roll and glue!

I cut my snowflakes from white and blue card stock and they really helped to fill in the extra space tucking then between the elastic and under the photos.

I added the joy tag layered with a patterned paper circle and a felt circle connected with bakers twine. I also tied a red bow to the top of my hoop and glued a button where the elastic pieces met. I added pom pom ribbon along the hoop for added fun!

Thank you for stopping by today! There are so many ways to use these beautiful cut files and so many projects to create with these felt flowers! Merry Christmas and happy crafting! Follow me on instagram @morewithmorganl and follow Just Nick @justnickstudio

Hello everyone!

Nathalie here with a new project filled with Christmas spirit. I just love this time of the year, it seems like my home becomes cozier as we approach Christmas. With that in mind, I created a project all about my baby and his favorite spot during the holidays.

As you can see our baby loves to nap in front or under the Christmas tree! So what better way to document this picture than to create a background filled with Christmas trees.

The Christmas tree background was created using the Fold a Tree cut file and some white cardstock. The cut was sized to about 8.5x11 in and most of the free spaces were backed with papers from the Studio Calico's Northern Light kit.

The cut out was then hand stitched to the background paper. To add more texture and interest to the page, a few stitches were used to secure the folded piece to the mat in some of the background trees.

To frame the picture of our baby, the rectangular frame image from the Infinity Hearts was cut form wood grain white cardstock. A bit of embroidery thread was looped along some of the edges of the frame to add texture to the page.

The title of this page was created using the Script Font cut file. The word "Peace" was welded together, and then cut twice from one of the papers from the Studio Calico's Northern Lights kit. A bit of foam adhesive pops the title from the page.

I love the end result of this page. The non-traditional colors combined with all the cut files and hand stitching complement the picture of our baby peacefully sleeping under the Christmas Tree.

Remember to stop by Just Nick Studio Store to check all the cut files used in this project, and all the new designs being added to the store. If you have questions on how this came together, do not hesitate to contact me.

Have a blessed Christmas!
