Handy Boy Set Card

Tool Belt Card

Using a file I found in the Silhouette store for a card and adding my own images from ppbn designs I created a cute card. Still deciding if it is going to be a birthday card or a Father's Day card. These tools are just too cute. I made sure when I glued the pockets on the card that I left the top open to insert my pieces.

Princess and the Frog Birthday set

Thought I would post something other than a layout since I always do layouts. I found these cute plates, napkins, french fry box, silverware and place mats at Wal-Mart for one dollar per package. Too cute not to try something with them.The flower arrangement is a few files, the Prince and Princess are a Members Club layout which will be out next month for everyone, so you can check it out at ppbndesigns.com, the roses and the daisies are from the silhouette studio but can be found other places, the little bug is from  Kadoodlebugdesigns.com Kids Catching Fireflies the Birthday sign is Happy Birthday title from ppbndesigns.com and the frogs are again Members files which which can be found at ppbndesigns.com. The cupcake toppers is the png. file printed and then cut. I did mirror the image and sandwiched the toothpick between the layers.

If you would like to find out how I put the flowers together leave me a comment and I will make a video.

Finger Puppets with bendy card.

 I loved the card by Samantha Walker from the Silhouette Store but wanted it to be a fun card for my granddaughter so I knew just what to add, print then cut figures from PPbN Designs.com. Instead of piecing such small figures I used the .png.

Sleeping Princess and the retired set Once Upon A Dream. I used a cone shape to turn these cuts into finger puppets.

I print then cut the Happy Birthday title to go on the inside and cut the Princess. I hope my grand daughter will love this card.

Print Then Cut with the DE software for the Silhouette Cameo. I have updated to 3.0.343

1. Choose design, I choose the png but you can also color and put back together the svg file. For this I am going to talk about a png file.
2. add the Registration marks. 4th button at top from the right. Looks like sheet of paper with registration marks. Under style button choose your machine.
3. Now to get cut lines go to 6 button from right. Open trace window. The one with a butterfly.
Select trace area and make a box around image. Now time to play with the different settings. I turned off High Pass and moved the Threshold to 100%. The balloons on my image didn't completely yellow out but I am just tracing the outside edge so it worked for me. Trace outer edge.
4. If you are wanting a white border just use the offset and remember to take away the other cut line.
5. Choose print setting for you printer and print. Button looks like printer.

6. Put paper on mat and I add a extra light in front of my machine. Cut.

 Add the Registration marks and make sure your image is inside the marks.

This is with High pass on and I might have gotten away with this since I only need the outline but I choose to unclick that and use the Threshold to 100%.

 Just showing the cut line, move image back into place to print and then cut or if you like the white border use the offset but remember to remove the first cut line either by moving it out of the way or changing it to no cut.

Monster Card

Welcome to PPbN Designs blog post for this Monday. I made a layout with these monsters last week and this week I made a Birthday card for my grandson. The file can be found here.

 This shows how I laid out the card before I cut the pieces. I did this to make sure all my pieces would fit or if I would have to re-size them. I had a large envelope but no card bases so I just cut a 12 x 12 piece of white cardstock to 12 x 9, scored at 6 inches, and folded. The monsters are on foam dots with Mike on dots thicker than Sulley's. The stamp I used was from a CTMH set I had around. This was a great way to use my scraps from my layout. Thank you for looking.

PPBN Designs Birthday Girl

This is such a fun layout. I am sending it to my daughter for my granddaughters book.
