How many of you have created a non-traditional card or layout before?? I'm sure that many of you haven't. However, I'm sure that there are many of you out there that have - especially if you own a Cricut, Silhouette or other type of digital cutting machines. These machines make cutting out a variety of shapes so easy & simple ... and fun!!! The ideas are endless and really help with your creativity!
If you missed the last 2 days here on our blog let me just fill you in a wee bit.
The Design Team have been given a challenge to create a layout or card that has a non-traditional shape. So, no circles, squares, rectangles, etc. Not allowed!
They also had to use the color orange somewhere on their project and incorporate the use of the i-top tool.
Would you like to see some more ideas from our Design Team? Ok ... let's get started.

This was definitely a fun challenge. Monster Mash is probably my favorite Imaginisce collection this year, and I love any chance I can get to use it! I used my Cricut and the "Happy Hauntings" cartridge to cut my tombstone card, and of course my I-Top brad maker and large I-Top brads to pop up the pumpkin. The ghost is adhered inside the card peeking out, and the bat is adhered to the back of the card.
Supplies:
Monster Mash Sticker Stackers
Monster Mash Canvas Stickers
Monster Mash Chipboard Stickers
Fall Medley 12x12 Cardstock
Pick of the Patch 12x12 Cardstock

ReplyDeleteThe machines you mentioned aren't die cutters. They are digital cutters. We don't need no stinkin' dies! :-)
