Hello everyone!! It's finally my turn to share my project on the Tuesday Treats blog! We are featuring the Life is a beach cartridge over there this month so I designed a die-cut page using the starfish border on page 64. In this video you will see how to weld 4 of these border shapes and some other single shapes to form a beautiful die-cut page. Since this is only my second video ever, I hope that anyone who views it will give me grace for my imperfections! :-) My cursor size was set at 3.24"H for everything throughout this project. The "surf's up" icon is on page 74. Please feel free to leave me a comment if you have any questions or to let me know if this video helped you in any way! I will try to have the gypsy file for this project posted here in the next day or two. Thanks so much for stopping by!!

Now on to the project! I am making baby shower invitations for our daughter's shower that will be in late September. She loves owls so we found this adorable one on Create a Critter!  I'm also showing you how to create multiples of images so that you can assemble lots of cards at once.  We started out thinking that we would only need about 30 of these invites but once we started preparing our guest list......ummmm........looks like we're gonna need about 100!  Oh well, good thing I have my Gypsy to make this easy!! Here we go! Here is a pic of the completed invites. We chose two different color schemes so they wou...
