Just downloaded free gsd, svg and plt files of a Polar Bear and Cub

I never got this the way I wanted it.  As always, I have trouble making things cute.  The Polar bear looks more like a lion than a bear.   I left the hat off because I thought it was too much.  However the hat is included in the file if you want to use it.  I didn't get a chance to test cut it either.  Please let me know if this cuts okay. 

Here is a butterfly card I designed a while back

I designed a few edge cards a while back.  Here is one of them.  It is a butterfly card.  I needed something to cheer me up tonight. 

Here is another one.

Just loaded the free plt file for the Sheltie

This takes two files to get all the parts.  I hope it works okay.  I never tested it.  Please refer to the picture to see how it all goes together.  Sorry, I am way to busy to give instructions.

Just loaded the free Sheltie gsd, svg files

I just loaded the files for the sheltie.  I have not had any time to cut any new files.  I did do a design today of some polar bears but not liking it yet.  It is still rough but wanted to share it with you.

Uncle, Uncle and Uncle

Well, this has been a hard 20 months.  We have just lost another dear loved one.  My husband's father passed away on Thursday.   He is the fourth dear loved one we have lost in the last 20 months.  I have said no more!!!!!!  I hope things will finally settle down for us.  I do have some files I want to load but have not had a chance to do it.  Please forgive me for not responding to your emails and comments.

New design I did for a Picture frame with daisies

Here is a design I did of a picture frame with daisies. 

My 2009 Christmas Card designs

Well, I liked these at first but now I am having second thoughts.  Not sure if I will use these or not.  My husband wants something with evergreens so I am going to try to do a scene with them.  I tried creating a poinsettia file again but again I failed.  I am about ready to give up on them.  The last try I will make is doing a popup card with them.  Wish me luck!!!!

This is a scene of a river running through the forest.

This is a scene of almost the same thing but instead of the river I changed it into a road for the sleigh.  I have been on a sleigh ride once and I recommend it highly.  It really captures the New England Christmas to a tee.  However you must dress warmly and have a very warm blanket and of course a glass of wine when you stop to listen to the quietness of the forest.

Here is the picture of the Sheltie I did for a special lady test cutting my files

I am not too good at doing animals yet but gave it a try and created a cut file of her beloved sheltie who just passed.  The picture she sent me was so precious.  I only wish I did it justice.  If I could cut shades of color, it would make this so much more realistic.  She gave me permission to show you the file.  It makes my heart skip a beat because I too lost my precious lab less than a year ago. 

 

Loaded Free svg, free gsd and free plt file of Little Cowboy with yellow lab

I just put the free file of the little cowboy out here.  Again, this took a long time to design and it is one of my cutest files yet (which I have such a hard time creating) so It will be going into my favorites file in a few days.  The cowboy hat, the rope and the puppy can be used for separate elements in other files so you are getting a lot of files in one.  Enjoy!!!

Loaded the free svg, gsd and plt file for the halloween spider design

I did not get to tweak this as much as I wanted to.  It cut out great for me, but it is intricate so you will need to have patience getting the tiny pieces to drop out of the design.  If you make this design bigger it will work very nicely.  I was trying to get it to be placed on a regular card so I made it the size it is.  Please enjoy this.  I will be adding this to my favorites and will leave it out here only for a day or so.   I hope everyone has a Happy Halloween!!!!!!

The Cowboy and Sheltie dog

I have not forgotten about the cowboy.  I am still working on that too.  I will be sending this out to only the people who requested it.  This file too also took so much time to do.  I am also working on a file for a very special lady.  I am creating a cut file from a picture of her sheltie dog.  It is not quite what I want it to be yet either.  Just letting you know I have not forgotten you.!!!!!

Just cut the halloween spider file for the free svg, gsd and plt files

It takes a lot of work to cut this because it is so intricate.  However it is worth it.  I still need to tweak it a little more.  I think the spider web has to be a little bigger.  Bummer.  Here is a picture of the first cut file.  It would have been better done on black but the black paper I have is too thick (110 lb) so I had to use the beige and put it against black  The skull is cut separate and will be added on top and the spider dropping is added on top with a thin filament string being used for the spider to hang on.  I am running out of time today to finish this, soooo it looks like I want get this out here until tomorrow night.  Sorry.  This has taken me 2 days of work and I'm not done yet.

Here's a halloween design

This is pretty rough still but wanted to give you a sneak preview of the free file tomorrow night.

 

Finally pictures from my son's wedding

If you click on the pictures they will enlarge.  No pictures of family due to privacy concerns but here are some

Pictures where we stayed:

Site where the wedding was held was on a golf course by the roaring fork river nestled in the trees.  It was a small intimate wedding but very romantic.  It really was a very  elegant  outdoor colorado wedding which really suited them perfectly. 

 
 

 
  
  

 
  
  

Someone just responded Tulip file not working

I just loaded the tulip file again.  I keep forgetting scal users can't have layers so I took the box off of the svg file.  Let me know if it work better now.

Just loaded the free svg tulip border, free gsd tulip border and free plt tulip border

I just loaded the new border I created in svg, plt and gsd files.  It is not going to be out here but a couple of days so get it while you can.  This file has stress cuts to allow it to separate from the page better.  Let me know what you think.  I would really appreciate some feedback.  Not getting much feedback here lately.  Not sure why?  I do try to comment back to you if you have a specific question or concern. 

I am working on my Christmas cards early this year and I have a couple of designs I may use.  I will show them to you in a couple of weeks. 

Just created a little Cowboy - He is so cute! Well just a little bit!

I'm trying to get better at creating cute things.  This is about as close as I have been able to get.  Someone requested a cowboy or a cowgirl so I tried to do one. It is pretty rough right now.   Let me know if this is what you want.  I have to get this to all cut out, and it has a lot more work on it before it will do that, so please let me know if this is what you wanted and I will continue.  Otherwise, I have so many other things I am working on.  Please respond because if you don't then I will not do this!!!  Oh, I also put a cowboy file out on the free gsd page that I modified from the public domain but I got the feeling you were looking for a little cowboy.

Created another flower border

Sometimes simple is better and in this case I think so.  I really do like the simplicity of this design.  I got this design from a file out on the public domain.  I think it is going to be one of my favorites.

Just loaded free svg, free gsd & free plt files for Over stuffed Chair

This design is great for someone who is moving into a new home.  You can put whatever article you want to in the chair or on the ottoman. 

Just finished another element for my new designs for Christmas

I am working on my Christmas designs right now.  Here is another sneak peak at another element I designed for my Christmas card.  This took me a while to get the sleigh to look the way I wanted it to.  I finally got it almost there.  I need to do some more tweaking but I am tired so I will finish it later.
