Easy Shaker Box Card Tutorial

Happy Valentine's Day!

What? Another Valentine project this week? Seems I'm on a roll. I wanted to share this simple shaker box card I designed using the Brother ScanNCut machine and BoBunny "Head Over Heels" collection.

Have you made a shaker box card before? I have a 'quick & dirty' technique. ha ha.  You  know me, always looking for shortcuts.

Here is the video that demonstrates  how I created the card.

Are you celebrating Valentine's Day? I had a such a nice morning…. DramaQueen gave me my favourite chocolate(marshmallow) and my husband gave me a gorgeous charm.

Wishing you a day filled with love!

A ScanNCut Valentine Card with Free SVG Download

I created this glittery Valentine card using hand drawn and cut elements designed with the new Brother ScanNCut machine.

 The scalloped mat in the background is also from the ScanNCut library of basic shapes.

I also drew the nesting heart, starting with one heart and then scanned and resized it on the ScanNCut to make 2 more smaller hearts.

All the paper is Core'dinations Colorcore card stock.  I used both the Glitter Couture Stack and Glitter Silks Stack in 6 x 6.

The glitter paper is perfect for Valentine cards!

Here is my hand drawn "Love Arrow" SVG file for you to download for free.  Just click on the word "Download".

A big thank you to my wonderful scrappy friend Sandra who came up with the idea of adding the arrow elements to my "Love" word art!

I also have a video with a tutorial on how to use the ScanNCut to design this card.


So, honestly, this is my first digital cutting file I've designed, so if it doesn't work for you, I apologize and promise to figure it out and fix it! 

I hope you enjoy this cutting file and please share where you got it if you do create with it!

New Brother ScanNCut Tutorial

I've been playing with the new Brother ScanNCut electronic cutting machine and designed this fun polaroid frame.

This is one of my goofy iPhone photos of BabyOfTheFamily and I taking a selfie while shopping. If you can't beat 'em, join 'em! ha!

I chose a pretty pink card stock from the new "Pastels" Core'dinations Colorcore pad.  I'm desperate for some spring colours these days…aren't you?  

Here is a video I made that shows the full tutorial of how I designed this polaroid frame, all using cut files from the ScanNCut library.

Brother's New ScanNCut

It's always fun to have a new product or scrapbooking tool to play with, isn't it?

I have just started working with the new Brother ScanNCut Machine and have designed this Christmas card:

I used Core'dinations Colorcore card stock for the wreath and "Noel" and the card base with patterned papers are from Graphic 45's new Christmas Collection "Twelve Days of Christmas."

It is being featured on the Canadian Scrapbooker Magazine blog, with lots of step-by-step photos showing the ScanNCut and design details.
