Fairy wing dress box

Wednesday, April 17th, 2013

Here’s a little something that perfect for all sorts of girlie occasions: bridal showers, wedding favours, place settings, little girls’ birthday parties, communion and confirmation gifts, girlie Christmas trinkets brought by the Christmas fairy… It’s extremely versatile so it’s up to you and your imagination to schuzz and embellish it as frothily as you like!

I made mine in A3 pink-to-make-the-boys-wink 220gsm paper/card with metallic champagne-coloured Conqueror for the contrasting petticoat and wing backing with a dusting of Glamour Dust to make them sparkle like diamonds. A quick ribbon bow below the bodice and it’s off to a gorgeous girlie do with a flounce and a shimmy! Pop in a pretty cello baggie filled with beads, jelly beans, sugared almonds or other nicies! I can’t think of any girlie who wouldn’t want to receive it and, clap hands – they will think how wonderful and clever you are to have made such a beautiful thing!

It’s easy to assemble, a few folds with a little pinchy-poo of glue here and there, and it’s done. All you need is a Silhouette, Cameo, Black Cat or Silver Bullet Cutter or other machine that works with SVG formats.

It’s being sold in SVG format for €4.50 euro. Payment is to be made through Paypal and the electronic template will be sent to the e-mail address of the Paypal account holder (unless you specify otherwise) within 24 hours of payment being received.

X Form snowflake card

Sunday, September 23rd, 2012

Christmas is coming. Given that the weather is cold, wet and miserable, the prospect of Christmas with its glitter, sparkle and ostentatious glamour is very appealing. So, with no apology for it being September still, here is a Christmas X-form card. The X form is where two pieces slot into one another and form an ‘X’. They are very handy though, as they fold flat for posting!

I made a few not too long ago: http://www.thesingingtree.biz/index.php/2012/05/now-it-looks-extra-special/

and here: http://www.thesingingtree.biz/index.php/tag/x-forms-butterfly-and-fairy-rounds/

This one is available as an SVG and GSD for €3.00 (euro). Payment is to be made through Paypal and you will receive your file electronically, via your email, within 24 hours of your payment being received.

Goody two shoes favour template

Tuesday, April 10th, 2012

A quickie and a goodie two shoes for you!  A 3D cutting file (SVG or GSD) that I will give away as a free download  if I get 5 comments (or more  – haaarrrr… manic laughter!!!!). Perfect for little bags of sweeties or other favours for little (and no so little) girl parties. I think they’re sweet  but if I get no comments I’ll reconcile myself to being alone in that opinion.

Thank YOU! Five is the magic number so here you go:

Paper beads

Wednesday, February 1st, 2012

 

Paper beads have been around forever and are simple-pimple to make. A few supplies and you’re good to go. There are free patterns all over the net, all similar to the pattern here. I’m giving you an SVG and GSD for you to make a template from. I have a project that could use a few paper beads and hope I can get round to taking some pictures and posting the results. I have made them before though and they always turn out very sweet.

1. Cut out your templates with thin paper (magazines are good – or plain paper if you want to paint them yourself ).

2. Dab some glue onto a cocktail stick / straw/ knitting needle (this all depends on how big you want your beads to be and how wide your template strips are) and stick to the widest edge  of your template.

3. Wrap round and round (dab a little more glue every few turns) until all the paper has been wound up and is securely stuck down.

4. Coat them with a layer of Modge Podge or varnish and leave to dry.

Now have fun!  Slip them off or cut the straws, etc and thread them onto ribbon, twine, string, etc to make jewellery or beaded curtains or bead bunting….

Cheap as chips to make and loads of fun!

Pretty flower in pot – a freebie for you

Saturday, January 14th, 2012

Here’s a nice little flower in a pot for you. I’ve added a free butterfly topper – mine is attached to a thin length of acetate which is glued to the inside of the pot. The butterfly bobs about at the slightest breeze or movement and looks delightful. Pop a little paper bloom in the middle and it will make a pretty centre-piece 3D card.

Hope you enjoy.

It’s free but you’ll need to register to be able to download it.
