2016 Peacock Birthday Card Front

October 14, 2016 By Chris Durnan

2016VDBC_PeacockBirthdayCardI find it fun to try to get an intricate cut with as few pieces as possible.

This card has a layered approach where you can just cut two layers and use a stamp.

Or you can cut the smaller pieces to glue behind the top layer. Anyway you’d like.

This file is offered in svg.

Enjoy!

Chris

Thank you for helping me get an idea of how many downloads there are!

Here is your download link.

Enjoy!

Here is a 3 layer cut of a pumpkin. If I could carve pumpkins with any skill, I would create them like this with beautiful scrolls and cuts.

 

This file comes in an svg and is for personal use only.

Enjoy!

Love You to Pieces

August 26, 2016 By Chris Durnan

loveyoutopieces_PamSA friend asked me to create this. I cut it for her in transparency and sent it to her. So she could stamp it some for her nieces. Hopefully, she will send me a picture to share here with it.

I did however, post this to the VDBC Crafting Fun Group on Facebook early. So I wouldn’t ruin her families surprise.

 

Thank you to Pam S. for sharing her take on the file.

TBT – Apron Invite

June 26, 2014 By Chris Durnan

My Throwback Thursday Post today. Pulling some older items and adding them to my current blog. This file was part of one of my past Quarterly Membership Clubs. If you want me to add this to the KNK store comment below and I will work on getting it uploaded. For now here are some more photos. Enjoy! Chris

Here is a really cute invite created by my friend Heidi with my apron invite from the qmc. This file has the words “you’re invited” and the apron cut in the file. My friend is throwing a cookie decorating party. However, you could this invite for food parties, cookie swaps, or food drives for your local food bank. How about cute thank you’s for that after the dinner party hostess gifts. Or a gift card holder for dinner out. I just can’t stop thinking of the ideas. I hope you cut it and enjoy! Have a wonderful pre-thanksgiving evening. I am resting and hoping my cold goes away before tomorrow and tonight my guys make their apple pies. Lots of great sights and smells.

Happy Thanksgiving!
Enjoy!
Chris

***Updated May , 2012 for Card A Day Blog**
Here are some additional photos of the invite with the apron opened up a little and to see how it is made. Enjoy!
Chris

This photo you can see the glue dot on the left just barely where it holds the pocket closed.

and here is one with the invite inside the pocket of the Apron.

Handbag Cutter File

June 13, 2014 By Chris Durnan

Handbag_VDBCI offered this digital cutter file in a KNKUSA  newsletter.  I am reposting it here for you. Offered in SVG, GSD, KNK, MTC, WPC, AI, DXF

Hello File Fans,

Here is a little handbag file for many uses… Ladies Night Out, Birthday Cards, and Scrapbook Pages. Especially that little girl that won’t let go of her purse that matches Moms.  I’d love to see what you come up with.

Also, you can find my files in the KNKUSA store as I start to load my collection of over 700 files. Having created files for 10 years, I am addicted to cutting and testing them node by node before I offer them for sale. The best comment I have ever gotten… “Your file cuts like butter”. Keep an eye out for more files as they load to the store!

Enjoy!

Chris

Here is the link for the download.
