Design Team MTC Challenge

MTC Monday

Every two weeks on MTC (Make The Cut) Monday, I will have New MTC/SVG Files For Sale and One free file. On occasion, on other days I'll have other Files for sale or For Free so be sure to become a follower and stay up to date on what is happening here!  I have my MTC/SVG Files as "Collections"  I find it hard to find files when they are just one individual even in folders on my computer. When you purchase my Files you will find 15-25 images in each File. Once you have the files you can save them as you choose to.
However, do not share the files please send them here. You will have to resize each image, but ones that are "layered Images" are layered together and "colored, So you'll select all of those to resize together. I'll have a tutorial on that soon. I do have a Video Tutorial on the "borders Collections" I have for today and How to resize should you Purchase the files. The "free" Border File is already "Sized" for you.

Don't have MTC (Make The Cut) yet? You may want to consider getting it with Cricut Cartridges going up in prices!
What you haven't heard about Cricut Cartridges going up in price? yes, in this hard times of recession they have raised their prices to not only on their sites but also to retailers too. You maybe able to still find a few deals for awhile but I would consider buying MTC or if not SCAL
For Info about MTC check it out by clicking the picture below
or to Purchase the User Friendly Software click this picture below and Already the Savings Code is in there! $58.36 for the software! Considering How much you spend on ONE Cartridge Not a bad deal, when for nothing you can add most any true type font to cut right away.

You can Also check out Lettering Delights for SVG Files and also get 9 Free fonts just look off to your left on my blog and click the correct blinkies to bring you there. Or just wait til I upload my Files. I have alot coming soon. I'll be updating my Free ones and ones I have for Sale come back daily to check. Become a follower while your at it so you can keep up with all the happenings around here!

The MTC Design Team were given the Collection of Files and they chose the border(s) of their choice to do their Inspirational projects for you. be sure to click on their pictures to go to their blogs and Follow them and also, see more details and maybe leave them a lil love. We all love reading comments and So does my Design Team.

 


Here are the 3 Border Files 

Border Collection 1

Border Collection 2


Collection Borders Fancy
Freebies expire after awhile and are removed as a Free download.

Sorry Freebie Has Expired

Check For $ale Tab or My Etsy Store for Possible Purchase

You may use my files for personal use and for use on items you make to sell. however you may NOT use my files to sell yourself or to share with anyone. Please send them to my blog, even for the Free ones but especially for the ones that are for sale.
If you share my files that are for sale that is stealing, as this is one of the few ways I can earn a living. Its not fair to me, other designers who also sell their files or our families who depend on our hard work.You may wonder well, its only $2.50, well that $2.50 pays for one child's meal in my house and I have 3. Also, if 10 people do that is adds up to $25.00 real quick. how would you feel If I stole from you? anyone knows how tough times are My family & I most certainly do.

Here is my video Tutorial on How to use MY Border Files in MTC
I do NOT own SCAL or any other software to use SVG files in other than MTC with The Cricut. Sorry




Free Borders *Limited Time* only Available Free until March 16th.

Jen's Birthday Hop

Welcome to Jen's Birthday Hop. 
The theme is turtle's cause Jen loves turtles!

You should have hopped here from  Theresa's Blog. If you just happened upon here you want to start from the beginning you'll want to start at Jen's Blog and Wish her a Happy Birthday and see the Blog Candy that's up for prizes one of which I donated.  Otherwise your here check out my cute lil project.

I made a CTMH Card/Recipe Box. I used CTMH "Miracle" papers from the Level 2 Miracle Paper Pack. I used CTMH Cardstock to make "Squirt" from Cricut Best of Pixar Cartridge. I inked the edges of all the "turtles" pieces with CTMH juniper ink.  I inked the edges of the papers with Chocolate ink and the box in bubble gum ink.
These boxes are great for storing cards (4 1/4 x 5 1/2 size) or recipe note cards or even your photos waiting to be scrapped.  The regular size provo craft and sizzix emboss folder fit in these boxes perfectly too. 



 

Thanks for stopping by. If your not following me, I'd love for you to. Comments make me smile and I love reading them! 
Happy Hopping!
