For this project for The Cutting Cafe design team, we worked with the Fun With Rosettes file. It has the option to make various sized rosettes and with a straight or scalloped edge. I also used the Gift Card Holder Set file.

Hey everyone! I am here with a quick project for The Cutting Cafe. This post we are still doing Christmas in July. I chose the 3D Ornament file as it is a very quick but cute.
I am on vacation and cut the pieces out to take with me to put together. The set has circles and an ornament base. You fold the circles in half and glue together side by side. Use more circles for a fuller ornament.
When I return home, I will glitter the edges which will add a glittery touch. Tie a ribbon or hanger on the top and you are finished.

Now let’s get things going for my project! I chose to work with the Camera Treat Cup Card and Keepsake Box Cutting File and Template which has options to make a card or a box that can hold up to sixty photos, a small mini album or folio, or other gift items, and both feature a lens that can also be filled with treats if you so choose. Without further ado, here is my beautiful cameral box…

Hello All! This week for our design team project for The Cutting Cafe, we used the new Lip Balm Chapstick Holder Set. The file comes with a few variations – a box, and a single holder that you make a cover out of clear acetate or paper which you can give as is or add to a card or tag.
I think this one is so cute. I made the box which holds three lip balms. You can decorate for men, women, boys, and girls and they make great favors for showers, parties, friendship exchanges, teachers gifts, co-workers, grab bags, etc.
I added a shaker element to the window of my box but you can use acetate or velum instead. I just added some bling stickers and a sentiment from the file on both the front and back of the box.

This time for my design team project for The Cutting Cafe, we had to pick a shaped card and make it into a notepad. I chose the T-Shirt Shaped Card. I used my favorites, black and gold to make this fabulous note pad.
I added flat back pearls randomly on the front and added a fringe trim as well as some black and gold rhinestone trim.
Close up!

I chose to use black paper on the inside which will require the use of a metallic marker.

The Cutting Cafe now offers custom word shaped card files! So if you have always wanted a name or phrase you could never find, now you can have a file made for you in a PDF or cutting file! Find the details here.
For out design team projects, we got to have a custom file made for us to use. I chose the phrase, You’ve Got This. I also requested a couple sentiments, Don’t Give Up, GIrlfriend, and With God…. You can have a few sentiments too. This time I am using the card as a goodbye and good luck type of card so I did not use any of my sentiments. I just added a few velum/bling flowers and added clear glitter marker to every one of those polkadots!

I printed it out on my laser printer which allowed me to then use my mini Minc machine to foil it with some holographic foil I have in my stash. I have a holographic paper pad, some holographic bling shapes, like the teardrops used here, and two sizes of holographic flowers. Holographic, holographic, holographic lol!
I printed and holographic foiled the image which is from the printable stamp set and added holographic flowers around it.
Cute holographic flowers!
For the inside, I just used a cut apart from the paper pad.
