Chip the Horse

I posted my first project to the Team KNK website.  It is a 7 layer chipboard horse 'statue'.  I can't say that I've mastered chipboard yet, but I have come a long way.  It all started at the KNK retreat I attended in June.  Sandy helped me figure out a few things to do when working with super-thick material, but a lot of it is trial and error - adjusting, then test cutting many times until I had everything set right.  I have a few more ideas for my next project, I may just get started early....

The July Grab Bag is here!

Look at all these wonderful files in the July Grab Bag!  Wow!  And the whole lot is only $7 this month only at http://www.visualdesignsbychris.com/!

Summer 2011 CHA Craft SuperShow - Rosemont, IL July 21-24

I am so excited for the Summer CHA Craft SuperShow July 21-24 I can barely contain myself! I had so much fun last year, and I know it will be just as wonderful this year. I checked the list of exhibitors and I am very pleased. Now….to mark out the booths I need to visit, want to visit, just might visit……whoo hoo!

Free File - Rocking Chair

I posted a free file on my website www.cuttinupdesigns.com.  I made this for a friend's birthday card and thought it might be worth sharing.

The file is available in AI, GSD, KNK, SVG, and WPC.
