The Cutting Cafe Blog Giveaway!!

Hi guys...tomorrow the Cutting Cafe Design Team will have some inspirational projects to share over on the Cutting Cafe blog!

Make sure you stop by each designer we will all be giving away files from the Cutting Café! You need to start here tomorrow over on the Cutting Café Blog and check out all the Design team's inspiration over there and then click on each project which will take you to each of their blogs to leave a comment to win!!  Don't forget to leave a comment here on this post first and I would love it if you would follow me too!   

The Design Team were asked to use a file of their choice from the Cutting Cafe for a project and we are giving that file that we use to a lucky commenter...each blog will be giving a set away!!  So if you comment on all blogs you have more chances of winning...yay!! I will draw a winner on Saturday September 3rd!

Here's my project and I decided to use the Assorted Milk Carton with the cupcake cutout, you could put acetate behind the cut-out but I decided to put black card behind kinda like a silhouette, then I did a little matching card using the Assorted Scallop Set for the card base and the sentiment on the cupcake is from Birthday Fun1!  My little tab on the top of the milk carton just slides off so you can fill the carton with goodies! 

So today I am giving away the Milk Carton and it comes in WPC, PDF and SVG formats and also comes with several cutouts.

Supplies:

The Cutting Cafe - Assorted Milk Carton

Sentiment - Birthday Fun1

Card Base - Assorted Scallop Set 1
