Mini envelopes – More formats

January31

Since I have posted my new envelope templates I got a number of emails asking me for more formats. So I have converted the files and now you can get four different formats in  the available zipped file. The formats are:

.PDF for all those who don’t own a digital cutter, just print and cut with scissors

.GSD, .DXF, .SVG for your digital cutters.

Is there another format I haven’t converted to and you would like? Please let me know!

To download the updated file go here and scroll down.

I have a new page on my sidebar called “Free Digital Templates”.

Check it out!

Thank you Patricia!

January18

Last week I won a wonderful post-it holder from Patricia’s blog – Scrapflower.

Today I got an envelope full of goodies from her! I didn’t only got this wonderful post-it holder but she also threw in a couple of ribbons, a great greeting card, a handmade magnetic bookmark and a bunch of stamped papers! My little girl Maria (4 years old) went crazy when she saw them. She wanted to color them all with my copics! I managed to save quite a few of the stamped images!!! LOL

Anyway here is a photo of the goodies (the beautiful bookmark isn’t in the photo… I guess Maria had it on her hands at the moment I took the photo!)

Patricia’s blog is great. She makes wonderful cards and she even has a page with step by step tutorials.

Thanks again!

This weekend’s card is so cute and I had such fun making it! I decided to make a funny Valentine’s card with no traditional colors. I also have to say that this card is my daughter’s favorite so far (she is 4 years old).

So here it is.

I have used the same monster stamp  to make a male and a female alien. Watch the video below for a “how-to”!
