COUPON BOOK

I saw the Mother's Day cart, and loved the coupon book, cute cart I didn't want to pay the money just for that so with me having MTC, I knew I could come up with it, so needlessly to say I have been busy with Valentine's stuff & baby shower invites til I didn't have the time to play around with it so on MTC forum I requested help and after receiving I came up with my own version of the coupon book. The file is the front & back cover, with the insert page(which you can duplicate to make as many coupons you like. The holes can be decorated with brads plain ones or to fit the occassion of the coupon book

Check back later to see what I create with it, with Valentine's coming up it would be great but you can use it for Mother';s Day, Father's Day, Anniversaries and more.

So here it is....

IT'S A BOY!!!

Here's two cards that I made for samples for a Baby Shower, I used New Arrival cartridge, on the first one I outlined the card using brown cricut marker and the second one I just layered baby feet in brown. The inside is stamped with Martha Stewart "new baby" stamps that I got for $2.99 @ Michaels.

Outline with brown marker

Inside

Layered feet



My camera didn't do these any justice, they look better in person.

New Update with MTC

Well, we have a new update with Make the Cut version 1.4.0 I am so loving this program and all the new free updates.

This version adds:
Custom Shadow Layers

Now you can create shadows with rounded, beveled, or mitered corners at a specific width.

Multi-Cut, Cut Speed and Cut Pause

Make The Cut! will also animate what it's cutting. It's hard to explain, but you will see what I mean once you start cutting!


Shift+Ctrl+Click Magic Selection

You can now add/remove shapes from a magic selection by holding your Control key, with your Shift key and clicking on a shape!

Horizontal and Vertical Spacing
You can now space groups of shapes by the group's average spacing.


Cut Preview

There is a new button on the main toolbar that lets you do a cut preview. Click once for a preview, click again for an inverse preview.

Better Zoom

There are now zoom buttons on the toolbar. You can also zoom by holding the Control key and using your mouse wheel. 1 to 1 of 1.

If you have any questions about Make the Cut Software please send me an email.

Hang in There Card

I wanted to make my brother a card to encourage him, the card is from "Wild Card" cartridge, the inside card is shape cut from MTC program, stamped sentiment is a stamp that I got from my local Mardel's. The shape(top note) that the sentiment is on I use MTC program for shape, if you have the Gypsy, the shape is available on Gypsy Wanderings. I misplaced my wire so I couldn't cut using my gyspy, so glad I had the Make the Cut program to complete my project. I used my Cuttlebug border folder "Just my Type" to coordinate with the tree limb.





If you haven't heard about out MTC program there are links below, to buy and a trial version download. If you have any questions, about MTC program, please feel free to send me an email, as always leave a comment to let me know you where here.


Happy Scrapping!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CARD


Here's a  card from my favorite cartridge "Wild Card" that I made for a friend, it's a little on the small side. I have made a suggestion to Provo Craft to come out with better 12 X 24 paper so I could make bigger projects and pretty bags, the paper they have availalble is only basic colors, I would love to see some shiny, glittery, pretty colors, pattern paper to be able to use. If anyone knows of a place that sells 12 x 24 paper please leave me a comment.

Anyway...
here's the card & envelope











Did I mention that I love comments, if you stop by please be so kind to let me know you were and what you think about what I have posted.

Have a Great Day!!!

Oh, I most forgot they also had in the $1 section some Hello Kitty grosgrain ribbon

As always, Have a Great Day!!!

Pocket card invitation with MTC

Here's a project that someone else was wanted over on Cricut messageboard, so I took it as a challenge with me still new to MTC I had to give it a try. What I did was went to over to website stated (http://www.make-your-own-invitations.com/) for sample of a pocketcard invitation and template.

here's a sample picture



and they had a template for this so here's what I did in MTC.
  •  After saving the image into my picture folder, I open MTC clicked on Custom Shapes
  •  select the silhouette of a woman this button allows you to trace an image, a window will pop open for you to upload image
  • select image, now a new trace image box will open, you will see the original picture or image in a small box and then the image you are wanting to trace will appear in a separate section, you will see a threshod with numbers allowing you to move it up or down it ranges from 1 to 255 they suggest you start @ 10 and increase until it looks good to you
  • when satisfied click apply
  • then accept
and you now have yourself an SVG file to cut with MTC.

final results




Measurements: Final assembled pocket measures 4¼" x 5½"
Envelope Size: This pocket fits best in an A2 envelope

Invitation Inserts: The inserts should be no larger than 4" x 5¼" in size. The pocket can hold 2 - 4 inserts depending on thickness of the inserts used.

I have not created one myself just a small one to make sure it was cut correctly, but I will be sure to make one.

click here for .svg filePocketcard Invitation

I was too excited that I figured it out, I'm still in awe...at the possibilites in making projects whatever you want you are not limited.This is another feature in MTC program that I know I'm gonna love, you can trace an image, and create an svg file and cut using your Cricut.
Enjoy!!!


*** I'm not taken credit of the someone's else work just in creating the svg file.

Goodies!!!

Here's some goodies I found, be sure to check back to see what I will create with these items.


Silver Platters/Tray
This was a great deal, I found these at Target in the $1 items, it's 2 to a pack so there was only 2 packs left so I got 4 platters to create something. I want to add vinyl to them maybe black which I will have to buy :)










Valentine's Stamps
Of course I got these from my #1 place for wooden stamps that is Michaels out of the $1 bin I personally like getting holidays stamps here instead of buying a whole pack for one stamp, I like it this way because I get to choose the ones I want.


Scripture Stamp
I found this at one at our Christian book stores Mardel for 75%, I only paid $1.05

I love finding great deals, now it's time to create something.

Have a Great Day!!!

Thanks for stopping by, be sure to leave a comment!!!
