Easy Comprehensible Tutorials
FREE SVGs
We are in the process of adding new SVG Files to most of our pages. SVGs will be in a box like this, simply click on the ones you want and it will Download.
Downloads will be in ZIP Files with the actual SVG File inside. THERE IS NO CONVERSION ! These are Cut Files that can go right into Design Space.
Most of the SVG Files available here are single color cut files (The Black Ones)
These files are easy to cut and easy to weed.
We are also in the process of adding AI Generated SVG Files. These are also single color files they are going to be more difficult to weed. The more intricate the picture the harder it is to weed.
Traci has been busy adding Layered Cut SVG Files (The Colored Ones)
These require several different colors of vinyl/cardstock etc and will cut each layer separately. They also have layering stars, these are stars on each color that you can use to line up your colors easily.
We are also adding MORE clipart PNG Files. These are the pictures you see through out the page OUTSIDE of the box. These too are available to download BUT they are NOT SVG Files. If it's not in the box it's not a SVG.
Looks Good Enough To Eat, Right ?
WRONG
What are Fake Bakes ?
Fake Bakes are Craft Items that look like food, that will last permanently AND No Calories.
What's the Point ? These are decorative. Wouldn't that pie be cute on a Coffee Bar ? It's FELT !! The "Filling" is Potpourri so it smells good. Or the milk shake on a shelf in the kitchen or use it for a party decoration that won't melt all over. (It's made with Wall Spackle) There are lots of Halloween and Christmas items in the works to add to your seasonal decor. Christmas Gingerbread themed items are so popular and expensive. They can be made easily and a whole lot less expensive. Cakes, Ice Cream Treats, Candies, Cookies. Wouldn't a cute display of Christmas Cookies be cute on your table for more then the 5 minutes they last til the kids get a hold of them ? (Yea the real ones are in the cupboard waiting for when YOU decide they should be eaten :) )
