Been a bit crazy…. VDBC Store Flyer, Feb 1st

February 5, 2010 By Chris Durnan

So this week has just been crazy busy for me and I am on one of my creative binges. I have a ton of kiddo stories to post, but just can’t drag myself away from creating files.

So I thought I would post the Store Flyer that was sent out. You can sign up for this sales flyer and not miss any deals on the front page of the store. It goes out twice a month listing sales, coupons, new files and the likes.

 

Also, if you are looking for something to craft this weekend or are using one of my files to create something for Valentine’s Day. visit the forum ((button at top) and enter your project in the Weekly Challenge. Or we have the Sketch Challenge with Die Cutter Files post for February. Rosalie Vos Tulp hosts this for us every month. And this is an approved by Becky Fleck of Pagemaps.com challenge. You have a cutter so why not have the files to help you finish the sketch challenge. Lots of fun!!

 

Hopefully next week I can get some of these kiddo stories up, but for now. I am creating creating!!

 

Wooohooo!

Have a wonderful day!

Enjoy!

Chris

So let me say it one more time – go check out Chris’s QMC for the best value on digital cutter files for Wishblade, CraftRobo, Cricut, and all the others. Check this out:

Chris designed this fabulous gift bag as part of her QMC. I lined the heart cutout side with pink cardstock and
outlined them with glitter glue. I put a piece of floral foam in the bottom. Then I made these simple little candy flowers and put them in the gift bag. I can’t wait to give this to hubby!


It’s not too late to join the QMC – check out the details here.

Valentine’s Day card from QMC

February 2, 2010 By Chris Durnan

Here are my two takes on Chris’s Valentine’s Day card from the QMC which you can purchase here… http://www.visualdesignsbychris.com/store/product.php?productid=16874&cat=0&page=1  .
 
I used the file completely on the bottom card.  I backed it with white paper and didn’t like it so I colored the white with the Blossom atyou Spica pen. I also used the clear atyou Spica pen on the Happy Valentine’s Day and the two heart outlines.  
 
On the top card I just used heart piece, then added two Friend stamps.
 
The heart charms on both cards are from www.acharmingplace.com.
 
thanks for looking…

CD00650-Valentines Card

February 2, 2010 By Chris Durnan

Here’s my latest file I finished from Visual Design by Chris.   I layered the cut-out with red to make letters ‘pop’!
Added some stickles, (of course! Ha)     Tied a ribbon on side with co-ordinating colors, for an added touch.
I chose brown, to make it more ‘Masculine Sweet’ for my DH, topped with a Sweetheart stamp, using CTMH ink pad.
It cut really smooth and I love the design!  Thanks Chris!

#CD00643 Year of the Tiger for Senior Picture graduating 2010

February 1, 2010 By Chris Durnan

My daughter is a Senior this year – 2010 – and they are the Festus Tigers so I was thrilled to see this file that Chris designed.  It is really a simple layout but the file is perfect!  I didn’t want to crowd the layout with too much because I love this photo of her so I only used the title portion of the file.  I also used my Wishblade to cut the word Senior to match the file Chris created.  Added some pretty patterned paper, ribbon and a bit of bling.
