Ready for some inspiration? Let's take a look at what the Design Team created using SVG diecuts. For detailed information and/or instructions, please click on their blog link.

Victoria from PAPER SQUIRREL created this scrapbook layout and says:  "What perfect timing!  Our two-week "Weddings" theme gave me another opportunity to finish up some projects for my own wedding day that is fast approaching.  (Yikes!)  I decided to take a step back and document our engagement story with this scrapbook layout.  The diamond ring SVG from The Creative Pointe's "Wedding Set" made a perfect frame for our photo.  I'm sure I'll be using this set again in the near future!"

Pam from MZLAVR2's CREATIONS also used a file from the "Wedding Set" and made this cute card.  She added flowers and a "Love Birds" sentiment.

Carolyn from GRANNY MA's CREATIVE BLOG will be presenting this card to her granddaughter when she gets married this summer.  She says:  "To create this card I used the "Wedding Cake Card" cut file from Creative Pointe and a file from the silhouetteonlinestore.com by Lori Whitlock.  I used cream color card stock for the card base.  The silvery, glittery paper on the cake is from Michaels, as is the gray polka dot background paper used for the layering.  The silhouette wedding couple are ones I created using my SCAL3 software, and will be available in my store. Small flowers are from the ribbon section of the sewing department of Wal-Mart.  The pearls on each end of the card came from the $1.00 section at Michaels."

Cindy from THE CREATIVE POINTE used the car file from the "Wedding Set" and says:  "I matched the colors on the card to the wedding colors but this card will be going to the groom-to-be!  For the details and the reason WHY the groom is getting this card, please click over to my blog."

Tina from TINA'S SCRAP CORNER made this gorgeous card using the cake file from the "Wedding Set".  She says:  "Lots of elements in this SVG collection to make many cards with. To get all the details of this card you’ll have stop by my blog."

Octavia from T's CORNER FOR SCRAPPIN' used the "Church" SVG to create this lovely card.  She says:  "I enjoyed doing this project!  I don't think you could say "congratulations" any better than with the blessings of the church cut.  I also used the beehive embossing folder for the brick effect. I used pattern paper, layered vellum over it to give it that stained glass look. And resized and layered the windows for the frames."

Shelissa from SHELISSA'S CRAFT STUDIO used the "Wedding Set" to make this beautiful bag.  She says:  "I wanted to make a fun favor bag that any bride would be proud of.  I think I am going to make a couple more of these."

Now it's your turn to get your Wedding on!  Just create any wedding or bridal themed item using a SVG (or similar) file with your electronic cutter and link it up.

We want to see the lovely SVG (or similar) file created cards you've made for that very special person--MOM!  We are so happy you've joined us and can't wait to see what you've created.

MOTHER'S DAY CARDS

Prize for this challenge is a $5 Gift Certificate for SVG files

from the Creative Pointe's ON LINE STORE.

You'll find over 100 SVG files/sets available for all your paper crafting projects.

Winner will be randomly chosen from all submissions.

Ready for some inspiration? Let's take a look at what the Design Team created using SVG diecuts. For detailed information and/or instructions, please click on their blog link.

Victoria from PAPER SQUIRREL created this sunny card using the MOM FLOWERS  file.  She says:  "That special day to say “thank you” to mom for everything she’s done for us is not too far away, so get out those electronic cutters and join the "Mother's Day Cards" challenge!   For my own mom, I wanted a bright and cheerful card…with flowers…my mom LOVES flowers!   The basic layout is very simple, with the star being the potted posy cut from My Mind’s Eye patterned papers using The Creative Pointe’s “MOM Flowers SVG."

Carolyn from GRANNY MA's CREATIVE BLOG created the lovely card above as well as the two beauties below using the brand new MOM CARD & CHARMS set.  She says:  "I first cut out the card base from a svg file from The Creative Pointe with "Mom" cut out in approximately the center.  Than using Versamark and a Stampin! Up stamp, Fifth Avenue Floral (believe it's retired stamp set) I placed the watermark image right below Mom and embossed with white embossing powder.  Use a ribbon and two flowers for embellishing the card.  For backing of the "Mom" cut out, I placed an off-white piece of cardstock behind the opening.  The next two (2) cards used a card base from Birds Cards (Rose Edge Card) which features a stenciled edge of roses.  The card can be used with the rose edge to the side or as I have done, along the bottom."

 

"I cut out the "Mom" charm and the back shadow and placed over a ribbon above the cutouts of the stenciled roses.  I placed small flowers at each end of the charm and added punched butterflies for embellishments."

"I hand trimmed the backing for the blue card, and then for the green card, I joined the pieces to come up with a 'welded' look and cut out with my machine.  And then trimmed it off at the perforated line.  Easy-peasy...."

Pam from MZLAVR2's CREATIONS created this colorful card using the MOM FLOWERS file.  Lots of lovely texture on this card!

Shelissa from SHELISSA'S CRAFT STUDIO

Tina from TINA'S SCRAP CORNER created her card with a flower from the FLOWER SET ONE collection.  To get all the details of the card you’ll have to hop over to Tina’s blog.

Cindy from THE CREATIVE POINTE also used the MOM CARD & CHARMS set to create this Mother's Day card.  She says:  "Click over to my blog for the design details and the quick and easy ribbon technique I used."

FOR BABY

Prize for this challenge is a $5 Gift Certificate for SVG files

from the Creative Pointe's ON LINE STORE.

You'll find over 100 SVG files/sets available for all your paper crafting projects.

Winner will be randomly chosen from all submissions.

One extra special entry will receive the"Creative Choice" button.

Ready for some inspiration? Let's take a look at what the Design Team created using SVG diecuts. For detailed information and/or instructions, please click on their blog link.

Cindy from THE CREATIVE POINTE created these cards from three brand new SVG files:  SPECIAL DELIVERY STORK, BABY BUGGY and RUBBER DUCKIE CARD.  She says:  " Pop over to my blog for individual card pictures and details.  Plus a great Baby Blog Candy giveaway!"

Pam from MZLAVR2's CREATIONS created a banner using a pattern from Girl Boy Girl designs, letters from Lettering Delight, card stock and ribbon from her stash.  From the ribbon she dangled the duckie, rattle, pin and bottle from the BABY SET, while the pacifier is up by the ribbon bow.

Shelissa from SHELISSA'S CRAFT STUDIO used the duck file from the BABY SET to create her card.  She says:  "I used paper from my stash that I picked up from Michaels craft store.  I embossed the brown piece of card stock using the Cuttlebug embossing folder "Spots & Dots Pois & points".  I used a blue satin ribbon that I picked up from Michaels and finally I placed a rhinestone for the Duck's eye."

Carolyn from GRANNY MA's CREATIVE BLOG created this baby girl mini album using various SVG files.  Below are the inside pages and details from Carolyn.  Be sure to check her blog for info on how to purchase this mini album kit.

Front Cover--The title is BABY HEADING from The Creative Pointe that I placed on the front of the cover.  I supply my own paper when needed, and the skirting is created from scrapbook paper that I downloaded, printed out and then cut.  Another section of skirting was cut out in white cardstock, and the band across the bassinet was cut out using another scrapbook paper from My Memories Suite.  I drew in stitches on the title, "Baby".
Page One--Using the same scrapbook paper from My Memories Suite I cut out to the size of bassinet/crib and then the top of the crib I placed a layer of similar polka-dot paper and placed a ribbon along the edge, dividing the section from the lacy edge. The three bears I found on a search of the Internet...actually one bear that I welded together in my Silhouette Studio DE software, and print and cut the piece along with a background and layered over the edging banner.

PageTwo-- I cut out two ladybugs which is a SVG cut file from http://www.misskatecuttables.com  and placed them on each end of the banner.  The layered title I printed and cut and placed in the center; and the paper is from Joann Fabrics that my granddaughter purchased for the scrapbook I am creating for her little girl, Isabella....so I used it in this mini-album as it's going to my granddaughter.

Page Three--The baby bottle is a SVG cut file that I created...actually the back ground of the bottle used on the back cover of this album.  The scalloped circle cut out wrong, but I liked it so will use it to put a picture in...using it as a frame.


Page Four-- It's actually plain right now....it will probably have photo mats and a mat for writing in information.  

Back Cover--Once again I found the design for the paper on the Internet, brought it into my software and printed it out to use as scrapbook paper/designer paper.  The bottle I created as a SVG cut file in SCAL3, and brought it over to Studio Design Edition to print and cut.  I found the scalloped circle and scalloped frame on My Memories Suite, created a SVG file from it, and will use to insert a photo of baby into.  The bottle can be used as is, or for journaling.

Octavia from T's CORNER FOR SCRAPPIN' took the BABY SET into the kitchen. Using fondant, SCAL, and her Cricut cake cutter, she created this cute duckie cake!

Victoria from PAPER SQUIRREL created this sweet card and says:  "Spring has sprung and it's the season of new life!  I had a lot of fun with the baby bottle SVG in The Creative Pointe's BABY SET.  As soon as I saw it, I knew exactly how I wanted to use it.  I wanted it to look as if little hearts were floating in the bottle.  Come visit my blog to see how I accomplished this and for all the details."

Tina from TINA'S SCRAP CORNER created a beautiful layout for baby.  She says:  "I’ve been working on a 1st year album for our Son and DIL and was able to come up with a great layout using the BABY HEADING file from The Creative Pointe, which added a perfect touch to the layout. To find out all the details of the layout you’ll have to head over to my blog at Tina’s Scrap Corner"
