Adorable Baby Shower Invite

I know it has been a while but I am back.

I am going to be spotlighting some of the great samples I receive from my design team members and customers. Today's is from Deb McNett, a member of the Creative Cuts & More design team.



This sample was made with our Diaper Card with Pin and our A2 Card.

I wanted to spotlight this card because Deb was able to enhance the die cut in ways that we had not thought of. First, Deb mounted the diaper card onto an A2 card. Then she added that cute trim to the diaper by using a pair of decorative shears. Then she made her inner piece by cutting it to fit into the diaper card.

Stay tuned for more innovative ideas and designs!

I'm Finally Joining the Blogging World!!!!!!!

Well, here is my first tiny step into the world of blogging.

First, a little about me. In 1994, I came across a cart in a shopping mall selling rubber stamps. My daughter and I immediately loved all the stamps and couldn’t wait to get home and start making our Christmas cards. Here it is fourteen years later, and my love affair with stamps is still going strong. As I became more and more involved with paper crafting, I was frustrated by the tedious job of measuring and cutting templates to make 3-D containers and more complicated movement cards. I discovered die companies that made machines and dies in all kinds of varieties. From that, Creative Cuts & More (www.creativecutsandmore.com) was born. Since then, not only do we offer die cut cards, boxes etc but we design our own exclusive line of die cuts. We also offer our die cuts in the widest variety of materials from cardstock to chipboard to acetate to felt.

I am hoping to be able to share lots of creative ideas, tips, techniques and projects using die cuts and the other products we carry. I will post sneak peaks of new samples created by my very talented design team. Will also have sneak peaks of new die cuts, new products, new classes and new kits.

I hope you will find some inspiration from my blog as I have found so much inspiration from the blogs I have visited.
