Just because card using Chris Durnan's cutter file

What a cute little bird! I cut Chris's Silly Bird file, put some pen stitching around his beak and wings, added a little glitter glue and he was ready to go. I pop-dotted the stamped phrase and tied a piece of blue ribbon and voila! an instant "just because" card. You can find Chris's Silly Bird file here.

Thanks for looking!

Thinking of You card using Chris Durnan's cutter file


How cute is this owl?! This is part of a cutter file that was included in Chris Durnan's Quarterly Membership Club. I cut him out, pin-stitched and chalked the edges. I layered him on a torn and inked piece of patterned paper. I stamped the Thinkin' of you! sentiment on a torn, inked piece of cardstock and pop-dotted it on the card. Be sure to check out all of Chris's great files here!

birthday card using Chris Durnan's cutter file.

I made this birthday card using Chris's cutter file - Fancy Journaling Frames. You can find it here. I really need to get a new camera, the one on my cell phone doesn't do this card justice. I cut the background from a lightly patterned yellow paper, then cut the journal block from patterned green, inked the edges with brown and layered it all on a solid sheet of green with torn and inked edges.

Thanks for looking!

Thank you card using Chris Durnan's cutter file

Here's another card using a cutter file from Chris Durnan's Quarterly Membership Club. You can find the club in her store here. This file also came with a coffee pot. I absolutely love how versatile her cutter files are. I cut the swirls and Thank you on my Cricut and layered them on a brown card blank. Instant card!

Thanks for looking,

Card using Chris Durnan's cutter file



How cute is this coffee cup?! I cut the background in black and the foreground in a pattern. I put it on a card base that I stamped with a coffee ring rubber stamp and the greeting "Thanks a Latte" using chalk inks.

This coffee cup is only one small portion of the file. And better still, this file was part of Chris's Quarterly Membership Club. For $10, you get 20 digital cutter files.You can find Chris's QMC here and her digital cutter store here.

Two birthday cards using Chris Durnan's cutter file


 I used Chris's Never Let Age Tame You file (here) to make these two birthday cards. The first one I cut only the animal print frame and the greeting. I put two pieces of ribbon around the greeting to complete.

The second card I used the entire file. I love the effect of the frame around the Never Let Age Tame You collage. I put the greeting inside the card.

The animal print frame would also be great around a picture of your favorite animal or trip to the zoo.

Thanks for looking,

Christmas card with Chris Durnan's cutter file

I used one of Chris's Christmas greeting files from her Quarterly Club Membership to cut the perfect Packer greeting for this snowman stamp. Colored in the stamp, inked the edges of the card and layered the greeting on top of the stamp. Check out Chris and all her fantastic files here.

Merry Christmas!
