Forever Yours

Well, Valentine's Day is here again, and we all need something special to make right? Well, I don't know that I can help you, but here is what I made for this special day. How about some flowers? I thought about using metallic paper for this one, but still not sure what the final one will look like. I have looked through the vendor websites here on my blog and have found several nice papers I could use. Except, its too late to order. Good thing for our local crafts stores! I'll be shopping today. Let me know what you were able to come up with. Send pics! Enjoy!

Be Mine

Here is one that can be used for children's home made valentine cards. Add your child's schoolmates names, and you will be the favorite home room mom! You can use this with or without the fuzzy fur, and you have a different look. On one of the vendor links here, I saw some furry looking paper stock that would look great for this. I'm thinking of getting some for that wow effect. What can you do with this? Send me feedback and pics. Enjoy!

Grinch

Well, we all know one ...right? Now we can create something special for them. This little green guy will go well on a Christmas card or add him to the next gift card holder, either way, they will know who it is for. I had been working on it , but never really finished it until recently. Yes, it's a little late, but well worth the wait. Next years gifts cards will be ready. Enjoy!

Kiss a Frog

They say you have to kiss several frogs before you find your prince. Really? Well sometimes you have to just take a picture to prove that you tried. Here is a file that can be used as a whole, or just use the frog portion. Make party invites, get well cards, wall hangings...or just about anything. As always, your pictures are always welcome. Enjoy!

Home Improvement

Well, I don't know about you, but I have tons of before and after picture albums of home improvement projects. Some are organized in nice little albums, while others are still stored in shoe boxes. I have been thinking about making a coffee table book with these pictures. Here is a file for one of those layouts, and I hope to post more someday. How have you organized your pictures? Any thoughts? Send me pics of your work, as I am always interested. Enjoy!

Welcome Baby

Well in all families, there is always a new arrival that blesses a home. And in the process of waiting, we always seem to have little gifts we give. How about making a card, a photo album cover or a gift tag? Every nursery can have a special touch from grandma, auntie or why not...mommy! Enjoy!

Made for Ipod

Well we all know that the ipod is the latest and greatest invention for all music lovers. We all either have one, or know someone that has one. We all also have a picture of some one getting one as a gift, so why not dress it up? This .svg could be used to decorate a frame, LO or card. Why not make a gift card holder with this? How about as a birthday card? Or even a gift tag? So many uses. I have even thought about making a freezer paper t-shirt! What are your plans? Let me know. Enjoy!

Motorcycle Helmet

By request, here is the helmet, another element used in the motorcycle LO. It is very simple, but adds to the look and feel of the design. Use a matte finish paper, and it will give it a classic feel, I think. Hope to see your pictures. Send to nancyscreative@sbcglobal.net . Enjoy!

Motorcycle

Another element that I used on the motorcycle LO was this piece. Very few masculine elements out there, so this was a must for me to create. This one too cuts better at a larger scale, as you loose details when cut too small. Make it out of vinyl, or used metallic paper or sheen, like those found on some of the vendor sites here. Use it to decorate the "Man Cave" or garage. Use it on t-shirts. So many uses, so little money! Enjoy!

Please try and download again. Having trouble with this link. Let me know if it is still not working and I will email you the file.

Route 66

Well, here is one of the elements that I used to create the motorcycle paper craft you see below. A Classic element that can be used to bring that vintage feel to any vacation scrap book, transportation LO or craft. Make sure you have a sticky mat, as the smaller you cut it, the more delicate the cut. Visit the vendors on this page, as most carry metallic paper, or pearlescent paper that will look awesome, as it resembles the actual sign road sign.



If you have downloaded these and have already created, or have ideas in mind, don't be shy, let us know what will or has become of them, better yet send us a picture. Enjoy!

Old Timer

Well its finally here! The Old Timer Truck is ready for download. I have tried to tweak it as best I could, I hope it cuts well for you. This one has so many possibilities! As a blogger pointed out, designs for men are few are far between. Make the bet of this, and please send me pictures of your designs at nancyscreative@sbcglobal.net. Enjoy!

Girls Soccer

Here is one that I also created some time ago. This one was for a soccer picture at the end of the year. Select paper colors and texture that match your uniform. Will make a great keepsake for grandparents! Resize to fit your needs and picture sizes. As always, please send me a picture of your artwork, or let me know if you like. Enjoy!

Baby Pooh

Here is a post I have been promising for a while, of which I was reminded recently. It can be used as a LO piece or as a stand alone wall decoration. Nurseries are easily decorated by a couple os strategies wall designs. Don't forget to send me pictures of your creations. Enjoy!

Charlie Brown Christmas Tree

Here is a classic cartoon I would watch as a kid, and still do, during the Christmas holidays. Nothing brings back funny memories more than Charlie Browns pathetic little tree. We all had a tree like this at one time or another. So use this to frame your picture of your family standing around the tree! Make a greeting card for next year with a tweek here and there. Use as a LO for those pictures unwrapping gifts. Think grand-children!

Don't forget to use textured paper or glittered paper on this. Let me know what you have planned. Send me pics. Enjoy!

New Years Day 2010

This one is a little trendy .svg that can be used on anything, just remove the text. Change the color pallet to meet your needs, and you have an instant component to your craft. Make various sizes with complementing colors or paper and layer to fill your LO. Enjoy!

A Night Out

I was looking for something to do and came up with this. Nothing fancy, but this is what I came up with. Will post soon.

As promised, here is the file. You are going to need a sharp blade for this one, as it has some small parts that tear easily. I hope that you will share your creations with me, as I like to see what can be done with these designs. Enjoy!

Fishing for Flounder?

Here is another .svg I was working on, but never really had a need for. I was recently was asked for it, so here it is. I started it when I finished the famous clown fish Nemo, also here on my blog. Use it as a party invite for a mermaid party, or to decorate for an Under the Sea party theme. Dress up the nursery or just a LO for those wet moments. Share your creations. Enjoy!

Betty

She seems to pop up just about everywhere, and seems to fit in as well. She's got a playful look to her, but she is not the girl next door. She is Betty Boop. Make her into you next card for your daughter or best friend. Inspire someone with a lovely card. She will adorn any layout just nicely. What can you do with her? Let me know. Enjoy!

Cartoon Dog

Well, Christmas came and left quicker than the time it took to wear out my cutting mat. But at least we had fun cutting paper crafts..right? Well here is a cartoon dog I played around with, and actually watched as I was growing up. It's amazing that they are still on tv. This could work on a nursery wall, say by the crib as wall art. Or as a LO for a child's play room. It can be vinyl decal as well. Let me know what you make out of it. Enjoy!

Christmas Lights

This one was a last minute idea for a design. This will cut better on a larger scale. Metallic paper makes it stand out nicely, but any bright paper will do. Have the kids give to family and friends with hand prints. Makes for nice home made gifts. Enjoy!

Ornament

Here is a simple, but elegant ornament, I think, that may fill that empty spot on the home Christmas cards. Feel free to adjust to meet your needs. Do not forget about the glitter and metallic card stock! Create several sizes and use to display your greeting cards. Enjoy!

Merry Men

As Christmas approaches, we find ourselves in a mad hunt for fresh decorating ideas to beat last years creations. Here is one I played with for a while that may be a starting point for you. This cuts nicely on a large scale, but not so friendly in smaller scale, but can be edited to work. Place your wording on the scroll or make it a poster. Makes a great back drop for all your Christmas cards to be hung from. Show me your creations. Enjoy!

Fall Festival

Well by now we have had, or are having, several fall festival and concerts, either at church or school. Along with that comes bulletin boards, scrap books and decorations. Here is a simple file that may help you with this. You can change the colors, shapes, and words to make it what you want. Make different size, or flip the direction and make it a left or right hand to fit any situation. Send me pictures of what you have done to inspire me. Enjoy!
