Hey there! Katrina, aka katrinahunt13, sharing another hybrid layout with you. I am going to show you how you can use cut outs that you see in the shop for getting artsy on a hybrid layout. Now, I am the first to admit, I love "stuff" on my pages, but I don't go toward the artsy side. After doing this layout, I think I may try it more!I dove into the BYOC for February for this layout. I used the following kits: Hedge Hugs | Bella Gypsy Happy Hearts | Becca Bonneville Olive You Paper, Elements | Allison Pennington and finally Love Cut Outs | Scrapping With Liz. I started by cutting out the LOVE file from my Cameo. After doing this, I realized that I am not limited by "what size the mask or stencil is that I bought" and I can make these any size I want!! How fun is that! I figured out where I wanted the cut out on my page and then used some removable tape to … [Read more...]
Hybrid Cards 3 Ways Using 12×12 Digital Templates
Hey there Lilypad fans! It's Katrina, aka katrinahunt13, sharing a way to get a jump on getting those thank you cards done after the holidays. I know from experience that if I don't get those thank you cards out pretty quickly, then I don't get them sent. I made these quickly in a night, which included coming up with what I was going to do, what papers, to use, etc. I also wanted to make sure that these were something that you could do easily with a regular printer only. No print and cut on the Silhouette Cameo for these! These would be GREAT for the kiddos home on break to make after you printed the elements out!So what's easier than using a template to start a page, right? Well the right template can also be used to create cards! I used Fiddle-Dee-Dee Designs Meet Me In The Middle (Dressed Up). This one is perfect for a square card, which is my favorite shape!I hid … [Read more...]

As soon as I saw this collection of templates, I knew I wanted to do hybrid layouts with them. This is the Big Words Dressed Up by Fiddle-Dee-Dee Designs and I loved the big picture in this one. And I used Just Jaimee's December Storyteller Kit|Journal Cards for my "supplies".NOTE: I have a wide format printer, but all of this will work if you size your template down to 8x8 and go from there with your pictures and your die cut.I started by opening the template in Photoshop and clipping my pictures onto the photo layers. I then moved those … [Read more...]
