[...] of my very first purchases as a scrapbooker, at least 8 years ago. I used my Silhouette and a free design by Kerri Bradford to create the [...]

January 20.2012

I thought maybe I might share a little ‘behind the scenes’ as to how my brain works. It’s kind of scary to go there as most things in my brain are scary in a demented sort of way. But I thought it might be fun to share that part of my creative process. Maybe fun? I dunno. Maybe I’m just being weird, which isn’t hard.

So last night I was watching my Thursday night dose of The Mentalist and up pops a commercial with a ribbon of sorts rolling around on the screen. All of a sudden an image popped into my head of a rolling ribbon, but being in the Valentine mood that I’m in, the heart popped in my head as part of that ribbon motion. Which resulted in today’s freebie:

free_heart_border

You can download it for free HERE.

Sometimes I feel like I get inspiration in the weirdest places. lol And once it popped in my head I had to jump up and find the nearest writing combination, lest I forget the idea–which, in this case, happened to be a pencil and a napkin–drawing it in the dark of my bedroom with the television as my only glimmer of light…which I was mostly blocking with my rather round body. Hey, whatever works man.

So, that was probably more than you really cared to know. ;)

So you’re saying that TV is good for us not just something that turns our brains to mush when we watch too much?

Ruth G - January 20, 2012 - 9:15 am

PS Thanks for the awesome freebie! However you may have come up with the idea!

Kerri - January 20, 2012 - 9:36 am

totally! not only is tv good for going into a vegetative state, but because your mind is ‘open’, it leaves spaces for ideas to wander in. :)

Gwen - January 20, 2012 - 9:39 am

Thanks for the freebie! I love your blog by the way.

Kerri - January 20, 2012 - 9:45 am

thanks gwen! :)

Sarah - January 20, 2012 - 10:05 am

OH!!! I really want to learn how to use digi elements! I’ve never done anything digi!!! Please someone tell me where to learn!

Terri Marchbanks - January 20, 2012 - 10:50 am

Ok Miss. Kerri Thanks so much for the wonderful freebie you’re
Theeeeeee Beeeeeeeeeest!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sarah my Dear you are in the right place Kerri and Her Fabulous design team will teach you EVERYTHING…HUGS

Rhadonda - January 20, 2012 - 11:15 am

Thanks for the cute freebie. I love to hear the creative process. Many times people look at me when i say something wondering “where did that come from?”. Actually i think it is a sign of your genius. I imagine Albert Einstein wrote on napkins. They say Lucille Ball was a genius, always one step ahead of you in the conversation. So there, in my opinion you are in good company with your creative process.

Karen W - January 20, 2012 - 1:45 pm

Personally, I like the way your brain works! Beautiful freebie! Thank you!

Karen

Esther - January 20, 2012 - 2:04 pm

Sonya - January 20, 2012 - 3:35 pm

Carla - January 20, 2012 - 6:36 pm

thank you SO much Kerri! Its perfect ;)

Myoriah - January 20, 2012 - 7:03 pm

Lol! Like where you got the inspiration. I was watching the credits after a movie and the thought popped into my mind that the way the credits were done would make a nice scrapbook layout. Thanks for the free file. I know it will find its way on a couple of cards.

Suzzi - January 20, 2012 - 8:47 pm

Thank you very cute. Update on dog possible, all wonderruffal? (play on words).

Hoolie - January 20, 2012 - 10:13 pm

Thanks so much for the freebie, and lol on the body blocking the tv light, I got one of those round bodies myself, and you’re right, whatever works man!

Sue from Oregon - January 20, 2012 - 10:38 pm

Had to laugh at the whole process! My guess is you are in some wonderful company around here LOL! Great file and thanks for sharing it!

Ryann Salamon - January 21, 2012 - 6:14 am

freebie | the monster at the end of the book

monster1

So maybe this is the monster anywhere within the book. ;)
(I loved that book, by the way.)

My niece works at a mental hospital and found a cute little monster bookmark project for them to do. When she brought it out to show us at our family party? All the older kids wanted to make some! It was so funny, but they sure had fun!

So of course I thought it would make a great freebie! A super fun project for all your little monsters . . . uhhh . . . I mean . . . kiddos during the Christmas break–after they come down from their sugar high, that is.

You can download it for free HERE.

You can make them in one of two ways: user your craft cutter or print out the PDF and use it as a template. It’s super easy for young hands to do with tracing + scissors too. Just a few straight cuts and you’re done. My niece didn’t have a circle punch and used a glue stick to trace one of her circles.

Here’s how to make it:
   Cut all shapes using PDF template or cut on your die cutter.
   Fold corners of bookmark along the scored edge–do not adhere yet.
   Adhere complementary color square.

Place adhesive along the top edge of the teeth and adhere to the under side of one of the flaps.

Adhere other flap over top of teeth.

Adhere eyes together and onto the bookmark. You can use the ones provided or use any circle punches.
The eyes in this example are 1.25″, 1″ and .5″.
You’re now ready for your new monster bookmark!

And on another note, I hope you had a terrific Christmas! Ours was simple, but everyone got some really fun things…things they wanted…camera bags, boots…a new tv for the family room! Yes, we finally stepped into the 21st century and got a flat screen tv.

Shocker. I know.

And…

I got a Cameo! Haven’t broken it out of the box yet (I know….*gasp*), but it will make its appearance soon, I’m sure!

I also do believe I single-handly caused a butter shortage. Holy cow! Let’s see, I made gobs and gobs of cheesy potatoes, those peppermint brownies I mentioned on Facebook, Tomato Basil Parmesan soup, Pumpkin Bars, and Caramel French Toast.

Butter.

And more butter.

But ohhhhhhh so delicious!

Cute bookmark! You got a Cameo!!!! Me too. Can’t wait to use it, i did get it out of the box finally yesterday. And just know you can’t use too much butter. Congrats on the TV. My kids wanted to watch old family videos but my husband has not converted to DVD yet and they could not believe we don’t have a VHS player anymore. It was kind of funny that they wanted to revert back to that and go find one. Probably by the time he gets around to converting to DVD everything will be some other method of madness. Enjoy your week friend.

rkokes - December 27, 2011 - 3:25 pm

thank you for the cute freebie!

CarolineD - December 27, 2011 - 6:41 pm

•That is WAY CUTE!
•I GOT ONE TOO!!
•omg, I don’t want to admit how much butter I’ve eaten or how many chins I now have. bring on the tangerines and salads.

Rhona - December 28, 2011 - 1:39 am

Love the bookmark – so cute! I know someone who would probably love to make one :)
Yay for the Cameo, I’ve been playing with mine and learning slowly – what fun though!! Still have a few questions I need to find answers for but I’m getting there :)

Dawn M. - December 28, 2011 - 1:58 pm

Hi Kerri,
I have a question re: your Post on Dec.16th. Regarding the mantel banner that Kristi Banks made for you. Do you know where she got the pattern for that? It’s sooo adorable! I also noticed on Lisa Bearson’s blog that she has 1 too. Lisa showed the halloween one also. If you know the pattern #; or any info; would love to know. thanks so much, and wish you & your family a Happy New Year!

Karen W - December 28, 2011 - 8:58 pm

What a CUTE monster! I will have to make some for the grandchildren. I got a Cameo as well and haven’t broken it out of the box yet either. Have fun!

lindsay - December 29, 2011 - 8:30 pm

i am grateful | let’s play

This is the week of Thanksgiving.

A time for gathering together with families big or small, with friends . . . wherever we may be . . .
and being grateful for what we have and who are in our lives.

It’s a time for reflection.

This is what I am grateful for . . .

And now, because I know you’re gonna ask–and because I’m so grateful for all of you,
here is a Monday Freebie for you. :)

[Comes in SVG/STUDIO/DXF/AIv8/PNG]

You can download it for free HERE.

And now, how’s about we play a little!

Because I am so grateful for all of you, I thought we might could play a game. :)

I would like to see how many Followers we can get here . . .

SO . . .

if we can reach 250 Followers by the end of the week,
I will give away a kit of your choice to three people.

But wat, there’s more!
(you know i love that :) )

For every 25 people after that, I will give away another kit of your choice.

So, to be entered to win, just become a Follower (if you aren’t already)
and leave a comment in this post saying what you are grateful for.

Are you up for the challenge?

I know there are many, many readers that aren’t Followers, so I’m thinking we can do it!
I think we can surpass that number by a lot!

I really want to give OODLES of kits away, so be sure to tell everyone so I can give more and more away!

I will draw winners on Friday!

With this being a holiday week, I’m not going to be around much,
but I will be keeping tabs and keeping up with any emails.

Have wonderful Thanksgiving y’all!

Follow you? I follow you so closely you’re in danger of losing a shoe. (Remember in school people would step on the back of your shoe, just as you were taking a step, and your shoe would come off your heel? Did we call that a “flat”? Hmmm)

Grateful for having the opportunity to go back to school to follow my dream of being a high school math teacher. As crazy as it sounds, I am loving the hours and hours of homework. Turns out solving for x is my calling. ;)

I am grateful I have enough food, clothing and shelter. I am grateful that I knew where my beloved son was when he died. I am grateful for all the many blessings in my life.

Linda Stewart - November 22, 2011 - 5:40 am

I am grateful for all those who came before us, who crossed the stormy seas to escape tyranny or starvation. For those who scratched the earth to plant crops and crossed the prairies in a wagon, I am grateful. And for those who lived in sod houses, or log cabins to raise the children that made this country strong and free, I am grateful!

Julie - November 22, 2011 - 6:37 am

thanks for freebie!!! BUT …. it’s not in the dl file to download :( S-O-S!!! lol

ona ginger - October 28, 2011 - 11:20 am

Thank you so much!!!!!

Kerri - October 28, 2011 - 12:05 pm

Hmmm….Michele….not sure what you’re sayin’ there…
If I click the link it shows me all the files in the ZIP file, but I can click Download Original in the upper-right and it downloads them all.
Are you not seeing that?

Christine N - October 28, 2011 - 1:04 pm

Hi Kerri! This changed my life, LOL! I stopped trying to get all the This & That files into my Silhouette software because it was taking forever. I figured I’ll just import one at a time for the ones I’m cutting. I tried it and it totally works! I’m on Windows Vista, by the way. I had my Windows Explorer open and just dragged the GSD files into my “Kerri Bradford” folder that I created in the Silhouette Software. So easy! Thanks so much for the awesome time-saving tip! Makes me happy to see all my Kerri Bradford shapes together!

Marla H. - October 28, 2011 - 3:30 pm

Thanks for the help with this. It looks much easier than how I normally do it.

Terri Marchbanks - October 28, 2011 - 5:20 pm

Thanks soooooo much Miss. Kerri You are simply “BRILLIANT”!!!!!!
Thank You for the freebie as well…And Thanks to you Miss. Ona too… Kerri you are the bomb My Friend…Hugs

Robin - October 28, 2011 - 6:20 pm

Thank you so much! I’ve been putting off importing files because I didn’t want to import one at a time. This is fabulous!!!

Suz - October 28, 2011 - 9:30 pm

Thank you (and thanks to Miss Ona, too!) And we are singing, too!!

Michele - October 29, 2011 - 10:31 am

Hey kerri-

no it sent me to a google page to log in etc and i did that and then had to do something else and finally when i came back here i clicked on the link and saw the list and it was added to my google acct. weird but glad it worked. =)

Rhadonda - October 29, 2011 - 9:48 pm

Soooooo glad for the info on importing. Of course i was almost caught up on doing them individually! Will be giving this a try. Thanks for the freebie too. Sweet.

Cheryl - October 30, 2011 - 1:26 pm

Too funny….a silly story for you. My kids were talking around dinner one night about what they’d engrave on my hubbie and my tombstones. His will say “Did you know? Now you do!” and mine will say “Buck up and deal!”

Cathy - October 30, 2011 - 8:14 pm

Thank you so much for this, this made it so much easier. I have been doing this the hard way. I now have 2 Kerri Bradford files (one for all of the This and That and the other for all of the rest). I have had so much fun playing with these designs all weekend, I can now see them so much easier.

Mendi - October 31, 2011 - 11:26 pm

That’s so cool! I just hooked up my new Cameo yesterday and I totally didn’t know they added that feature with the latest software upgrade–Hooray! Thanks for the free shape too! :)

j - November 1, 2011 - 1:28 pm

ty for the tip and the freebie – much appreciated!

Oogie M - January 2, 2012 - 3:16 pm

How do you import multiple PNG files into Silhouette Studio? The trick posted here doesn’t work for those files as far as I can figure out.

friday freebie | all done up

Somebody stop me! I can’t seem to stop with the Halloween decorations!

And today’s project combines the Friday Freebie with a shape cut in vinyl from the This Is Halloween kit.

[ Supplies | Halloween Definition Paper: Friday Freebie / Beware+Crow: This Is Halloween / Lantern+Candle: IKEA / Bling: House of 3 / Damask ribbon by The Ribbon Boutique: Hobby Lobby ]

I love the dimensionalness (yeah, it’s a word) of this project.

So you’re probably looking at the images and scratchin’ your noggin’ thinkin’, “What and where the heck is the Friday Freebie???”

Oh. That would be the definition paper that’s been melted to the candle!

It looks like this:

[You can download this image for free from HERE.]

Simply put, you print this onto tissue paper, trim to size, and then use your embossing gun to heat it to the candle. The wax melts and saturates the tissue paper. I learned this nifty little trick from the amazing Heidi Swapp in this video tutorial that she made:

Soooo fun!! I loooooove that she shared this idea!

The candle would be cute done up with ribbons and tags and given as neighbor gifts too.

I thought it would be fun to add some black or orange…or black+orange…foo foo in the bottom of the lantern too. Maybe some kind of glittery garland or grass. But since I didn’t have that at my finger tips, I opted for the orange flower.

Well? There’s another decoration. Just one more that I can think of for right now. I’ve got my eyes set on that “Candy Candy Candy Candy” image (can you just hear Garfield saying that?).

back to school + friday freebie

It’s that time of year. Can you believe it???

Jordan started high school this week. She’s already knee-deep in classes and the all-important: social fun.

Zach and Kass are next up on the list. Took them down to the local university to get some paper work done, bus passes, and all that fun stuff. They are a little late in the game on getting all their classes, so that’s something they are still working on. Let’s hope it’s done come Monday when school actually starts. ;)

Little Miss Nichol’s kids started last week. Wowza! And now, with all her free time, she’s able to whip up a page on the very first day of school. :)

[Shapes | Picture That [Go Long] / School Years / This & That: School]

Absolutely love…LOVE (did I say LOVE?) this! Look how she decorated the books! She used stamps to accent her diecuts . . . fab, just FAB! And isn’t her daughter just the cutest???

You can read all about her wonderful creation and find links to all her supplies on her blog HERE.

. . . . . .

So, it’s Friday and it’s been a while since I’ve done a Friday Freebie!

I know.

*gasp*

But to help you out with all those school photos, here’s a fun little “grungey-esque” title for ya!

You can download it for free HERE.

Stay tuned this weekend for a sneak peek / preorder for the new This & That kit!

friday freebie: office tag + printables

Got a little freebie for ya today.

It’s a fun little office tag with its reinforecment.

But wait, there’s more! ;)

(I love saying that.)

There’s also a couple of printable phrases that you can
use with it to help decorate it as well as a little number printable.

Sweet.

Looks a little somethin’ like this:

You can download the tag and three printable images HERE.

I decked out the tag using the key, ticket and branch from the This & That Lucky kit. The shapes are also found in the “Shapes Only” version of the Lucky kit. I’d also planned to stamp yellow polka dots or houndstooth under the leaves, but, uhhhhh, I forgot. So there’s that option for ya.

So, you’re probably looking at that tag and thinking,

“How did she get that ledger on there? I swear it’s from the Love: Every Little Thing kit.”

(uhhhh, yeah…suuuure you’re thinkin’ that. but let’s just go with that story anyway.)

Well, what I did was combine the tag with the ledger (budget) in Silhouette Studio to make my own Print & Cut! I love doing this.

If you’ve never tried it, here’s a video to show you just how you can do that.

By the way, I’m lovin’ making the videos except when my dog starts barking! He’s just like a kid that bugs you only when you’re on the telephone. And because my office window is right at ground level . . . guess who hears him when he’s barking at something.

He was quiet all day.

I waited until the kids left for the evening so I could have it quiet in the house. Don’t want you to hear any ~~bickering~~ *ehem* blissful noises of harmonious children either.

Yeah.

Sure.

Two minutes in.

BARK.BARK.BARK!

Had to wait for hubby to come home to take him for a walk.

If anyone has any sure-fire ways on how to get a dog not to bark, I’d sure love to hear it. :)

Have a lovely weekend y’all!

Rhadonda - July 15, 2011 - 3:53 pm

These are awesome. Thanks so much. Except i can't figure out how to download from the screen that comes up in Google. Sorry for my ignorance. Must be something new. Please help and thanks!

Kerri - July 15, 2011 - 4:01 pm

Okay, that is really weird. Not sure why it shows up that way, but click on File in the upper left corner and it will have "Download Original" there.

I'll have to check into that more…

Rhadonda - July 15, 2011 - 4:14 pm

That did it. Thanks. Video was great. I am always learning from you. Can you possibly help me figure out how to do print and cut out a png that you import into Silhouette? I imported a png tag file from Ali Edwards. I did trace outline so it would cut out all around it but it put the yellow, red marks on every little feature within the tag so i didn't attempt to cut it if that makes sense. I contacted Silhouette but they told me to do just what I did. Perhaps you can't cut a png file. Sorry if this was inappropriate to post here. Let me know if you would prefer another way! Since you are the expert of course.

Scrapthat - July 15, 2011 - 4:52 pm

Thanks Kerri! Always nice to have a walk through!! I haven't done this in studio yet as it never really worked for me in the old program (it was very hit or miss giving me error messages) So I'll definitely try again!!
Also I learned something very valuable!! The CNTRL C CNTRL V…the double cut is nice but sometimes I am using various different CS on my carrier sheet at one time and need one image only to double cut because it's sitting on Bazill but everything else is on a slightly thinner CS this way I can cut them all at once without cutting and then cutting again! TFS and Thanks for the tag and reinforcer!

Rhadonda - July 15, 2011 - 7:40 pm

Scrapthat i wanted to help you. It is CNRL F and not V. V doesn't paste it right on top but just doubles it off to the side a bit. I am so glad for this video because i had been using double cut because i couldn't remember the command where it pastes it right on top. Hope that helps. ( :

Anonymous - July 15, 2011 - 10:22 pm

Love the freebies! Thank you so much for those and for the great video. It was so helpful and easy to follow. I'm sure I'll be watching it again and again.

I just noticed your post Rhadonda, and I too would love a tutorial on cutting a png.

luvmysilhouette - July 16, 2011 - 2:08 am

Well Miss Kerri that was a Fabulous Video, You are such a Great Teacher…lol I Thank you soooo much for the coooooooool freebie …I been wondering bout your doggie too mine is soooooooooo spoiled love him so much…I made a little order so thanks for all you do for us …xoxoxoxo

nativetexangirl - July 16, 2011 - 1:33 pm

I am not very familiar with Google Docs and was trying to figure out how to download but saved it to my Google Docs but now it only tells me I don't have permission to view the file and I can't get it to open to print. Thanks for the file and for sharing with us. Can you help me? I can't even view it when I click on your link anymore-same message of no permission.

Kerri - July 16, 2011 - 3:15 pm

Okay, so it appears Google has changed how Google Docs works. It now looks at the ZIP file and expands it so that the user can see what's in the ZIP file.

So I went back through a couple of the links and saw a couple different looks. One has a Download link in the upper left and one you have to click File/Download Original.

While I can see this new feature being helpful for some, it just adds confusion for just those wanting the file.

I just tried uploading the file again and it appears to be the same as before.

So try using the Download or File/Download link and see if that helps.

nativetexangirl - July 16, 2011 - 7:58 pm

Thank you so much, Kerri. I was able to click on it and see all the files and I went to File and Download in the upper left corner. I appreciate you sharing this and taking more time to help little old me retrieve it. :D Have a great summer day!

This video was so helpful. I have made a few print-and-cuts before, but it was great to see a step-by-step tutorial on video! Plus, I had no idea you could adjust the location of the registration marks! I'm so happy to know that– no more weird wasted paper!
Thank you!

Hi, Kerri. Thanks for the freebies. As for dogs not barking, I taught my dog the command "no bark". I don't use it often since barking is what dogs do, but in certain circumstances, it's useful. Surprisingly enough, she exactly knows what it means and will stop barking (although, if she sees another dog, I may have to say it more than once). To teach it, I rewarded her every time I said "no bark" and she actually stopped barking. Eventually, she learned what the phrase meant and the rest is history. Lol. On another note, I also taught her to bark on command, which proved to be less useful-I rarely use it:).
