<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So to start, when you cut out the pieces, there will be a large piece that looks like this-</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
simply fold all of the tabs into each other, and tape (or glue) the frame together, like this-</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I like to use double sided tape for this bc it's strong, cheap, and I have a lot of it. Next we cut out the other pieces-</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhwSEMCp4n5AwjcZAWMtWfW2cuQcrkqqYwolUewplKQetB_PJzFZ0i_EoRgAkAn29NqGDpikXzwG1y5pwQ__sSWH1xaMTtdNfO2kC6miJ_HWaLdejLJEQJ0t62mrFc629k3QtdjF2hRGSc/s1600/Pumpkin_3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1440" data-original-width="1440" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhwSEMCp4n5AwjcZAWMtWfW2cuQcrkqqYwolUewplKQetB_PJzFZ0i_EoRgAkAn29NqGDpikXzwG1y5pwQ__sSWH1xaMTtdNfO2kC6miJ_HWaLdejLJEQJ0t62mrFc629k3QtdjF2hRGSc/s320/Pumpkin_3.jpg" width="320" /> </a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Cut out all the pieces you want with corresponding colored papers, and find your photo or whatever you would like to put inside. </div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiTtq0OixnGqN4Mc3U17BU1SjL5BVd1MYez-Cf97Ub-Fc275uMWQaJSEWijn4LT9EQHeE4tk6DpSylfFnvP-Pqd8bgR80Der8eC2AjvcSoLjzb0oUoWNC5_FvnQYVXyN7HbTb2jiVJVnMQ/s1600/Pumpkin_4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1440" data-original-width="1440" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiTtq0OixnGqN4Mc3U17BU1SjL5BVd1MYez-Cf97Ub-Fc275uMWQaJSEWijn4LT9EQHeE4tk6DpSylfFnvP-Pqd8bgR80Der8eC2AjvcSoLjzb0oUoWNC5_FvnQYVXyN7HbTb2jiVJVnMQ/s320/Pumpkin_4.jpg" width="320" /> </a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Now you can start to assemble it the way you want, add other designs or just go crazy! I love my scotch dot glue pen for the little pieces, it works perfectly. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Here you go! This is how it looks lying down. I included 2 pumpkins in the file, one for if you want your frame to stand up straight, or the other for if you would like a rounder bottom pumpkin, and for the frame to rest on your surface. Have fun and happy gobbler day! </div>

So here is an in depth tutorial on how to do that!<br />
When you buy my monogram files, usually they look something like this:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEitiX8QxCrDgNQyrLKCtFdM-G_aMQouCLv_NBtxdvDJBehB0VN5yR8N-t4p8XRS5CF8ut_EUumf3gCR6qm7EsYUtRO3ybuNgTGJPgCHOyKR0CZQXWvq5ukl-7DM__nrIfgLAqMv63ewOQQ/s1600/Screen+Shot+2017-09-09+at+10.53.55+AM.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="715" data-original-width="822" height="173" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEitiX8QxCrDgNQyrLKCtFdM-G_aMQouCLv_NBtxdvDJBehB0VN5yR8N-t4p8XRS5CF8ut_EUumf3gCR6qm7EsYUtRO3ybuNgTGJPgCHOyKR0CZQXWvq5ukl-7DM__nrIfgLAqMv63ewOQQ/s200/Screen+Shot+2017-09-09+at+10.53.55+AM.png" width="200" /></a></div>
When you buy that design, the letters are separate and are not included, they can be found here:<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
From there you can copy and paste the letters you need into the monogram file you bought, using this method: <br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgoEhJcu6G_AF96c7D-eIdWWOkEeB7c-JE4eB1S1zZs8cI0Bdez5XOOdooto-v7rQHvIBJ1Dsmg-QmoeGOfcZ-zHESguOrVG34zPgZaluOmy5iqwHkG9ECoGvYnNvuNIZI79Br44acOxHA/s1600/1.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="378" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgoEhJcu6G_AF96c7D-eIdWWOkEeB7c-JE4eB1S1zZs8cI0Bdez5XOOdooto-v7rQHvIBJ1Dsmg-QmoeGOfcZ-zHESguOrVG34zPgZaluOmy5iqwHkG9ECoGvYnNvuNIZI79Br44acOxHA/s640/1.jpg" width="640" /></a><br />
First, open your monogram file with the letters that you want to use. If you want different letters then you would have a couple more to open.<br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiC6KPSJHtRsWGJOAs_PRBeU78LNd0L_rdxPWBllxvQsjOMGfyszu_ktGQcndgc7LRp49tx7efM22BOCtarMTGIvJ2KRWcql8c8o6Aw4ULrsG7Uzq8czMJiyOOB-ou8r5QuVIGJY-M4e94/s1600/2.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiC6KPSJHtRsWGJOAs_PRBeU78LNd0L_rdxPWBllxvQsjOMGfyszu_ktGQcndgc7LRp49tx7efM22BOCtarMTGIvJ2KRWcql8c8o6Aw4ULrsG7Uzq8czMJiyOOB-ou8r5QuVIGJY-M4e94/s640/2.jpg" width="640" /></a><br />
If everything is all grouped together like it is here, click directly on the image to select it.<br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqt0j7ItdvIGlbzJnQzk09PYHqxr8TtOfUNuTYElnm8RIDN1iSXiIG6SkLkcixC3Z9f5AOGTVDR7EnzCcuk6S4p9Q7nbBvBYLXKxLTdeuqorqIe9xz1Fbq_b7ffvhDAhNZTfubi8wf2w4/s1600/3.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqt0j7ItdvIGlbzJnQzk09PYHqxr8TtOfUNuTYElnm8RIDN1iSXiIG6SkLkcixC3Z9f5AOGTVDR7EnzCcuk6S4p9Q7nbBvBYLXKxLTdeuqorqIe9xz1Fbq_b7ffvhDAhNZTfubi8wf2w4/s640/3.jpg" width="640" /></a><br />
If there are a ton of parts and it's confusing, select all is a good way to get everything.<br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWQSnz-u_AIB-lKtY7lFrZwakB3M2AoVngvME_dyfi10Ze9AncXcYqVLy6LwlqwMF2BbchCU_poEUNACO186Khwh1ROsCjBXTFhz3q0xYsTbf9h_ivTAJCotiD5qIRZyWs_DIvHLxTJWk/s1600/4.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWQSnz-u_AIB-lKtY7lFrZwakB3M2AoVngvME_dyfi10Ze9AncXcYqVLy6LwlqwMF2BbchCU_poEUNACO186Khwh1ROsCjBXTFhz3q0xYsTbf9h_ivTAJCotiD5qIRZyWs_DIvHLxTJWk/s640/4.jpg" width="640" /></a><br />
Go to Object- Ungroup<br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgnQBnFIh4cT7TNSAF9ZB__Elw3GfceJZmgiDGoVRqiqDJkLlfg2NGLu8OUGc-lnWyLQh-6tnUjyh9VZssAt9oreiGsPhd50FA5vTTn70o1rgx1PrLS-i-3TxDXiAi1n5GOq8jYkAAkWLc/s1600/5.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgnQBnFIh4cT7TNSAF9ZB__Elw3GfceJZmgiDGoVRqiqDJkLlfg2NGLu8OUGc-lnWyLQh-6tnUjyh9VZssAt9oreiGsPhd50FA5vTTn70o1rgx1PrLS-i-3TxDXiAi1n5GOq8jYkAAkWLc/s640/5.jpg" width="640" /></a><br />
Now everything should look a little like this, you can see all the different pieces.<br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicz9g147m9aU4Wf_Wnsv6I5GeA7KwC6-aR-Ajaki_jbE4Hu3L5j6qDxdpw0tp7LnupAcDGq-KBVkSrzo1Jqar3XuaTiLlRGDmakhPBBY81hp_9TYJ0whZXjBjs7_NW-AVWowszMjRcv7w/s1600/6.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicz9g147m9aU4Wf_Wnsv6I5GeA7KwC6-aR-Ajaki_jbE4Hu3L5j6qDxdpw0tp7LnupAcDGq-KBVkSrzo1Jqar3XuaTiLlRGDmakhPBBY81hp_9TYJ0whZXjBjs7_NW-AVWowszMjRcv7w/s640/6.jpg" width="640" /></a><br />
You might select a layer to grab one piece, only to find it is still stuck together-<br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhjCTQQYM8aoHHrqrydeRddOlNUjYiSYj_sg4ZJB3yAWVNqqb59QIVmG8fKTu4937T4dDaqOMXr6QUyqxFEOuf78mw2WM5sghGORRp9DW96MVu96vRZv9VGFg7kh-cO-qHJmbOdncfGGM0/s1600/7.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhjCTQQYM8aoHHrqrydeRddOlNUjYiSYj_sg4ZJB3yAWVNqqb59QIVmG8fKTu4937T4dDaqOMXr6QUyqxFEOuf78mw2WM5sghGORRp9DW96MVu96vRZv9VGFg7kh-cO-qHJmbOdncfGGM0/s640/7.jpg" width="640" /></a><br />
Simply ungroup it again,<br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHR6MEMYWlTOj5VipkSKnff1zfuw8ZocmeXInN32zcwTrNPAvNZPH2hW3DoVpmiW5Z4l2NS3pXCXSQAx1iceinbkP_P56n3wG6Szp5cbmJwLGxbcYrr4CHeAxIwJGaXpzo5YfdZU_2DAg/s1600/7.5.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHR6MEMYWlTOj5VipkSKnff1zfuw8ZocmeXInN32zcwTrNPAvNZPH2hW3DoVpmiW5Z4l2NS3pXCXSQAx1iceinbkP_P56n3wG6Szp5cbmJwLGxbcYrr4CHeAxIwJGaXpzo5YfdZU_2DAg/s640/7.5.jpg" width="640" /></a><br />
Click ungroup again. If you ever want to undo anything, just hit Edit- Undo!<br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3YGdvpcF6KFrm924akC7G8Zn-m-m1bXZSTLdFiBcYxKFsCNeiSG-Oy_DQiKCVSI2HDOjLCge9Ym8KkDYShu-Za_t1vzywtJJwCdz1TWeDKJ2fKq3cbASNkzo2ffCToXkH76WhP3V9Acs/s1600/8.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3YGdvpcF6KFrm924akC7G8Zn-m-m1bXZSTLdFiBcYxKFsCNeiSG-Oy_DQiKCVSI2HDOjLCge9Ym8KkDYShu-Za_t1vzywtJJwCdz1TWeDKJ2fKq3cbASNkzo2ffCToXkH76WhP3V9Acs/s640/8.jpg" width="640" /></a><br />
Now you have 3 separate letters! <br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhNaNGcSJUDXBMRaAP-EENZ2NciiKuiPum-zHvuwEOsshRBMptWmqcjKAejaRLRYnKD76VD7iEj_w0zFv2qGZgba5e6hyeHymXn7078cnAO_5zd0rznvKW2ZfHrYn0zmHctVnYPcvMTqTI/s1600/9.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhNaNGcSJUDXBMRaAP-EENZ2NciiKuiPum-zHvuwEOsshRBMptWmqcjKAejaRLRYnKD76VD7iEj_w0zFv2qGZgba5e6hyeHymXn7078cnAO_5zd0rznvKW2ZfHrYn0zmHctVnYPcvMTqTI/s640/9.jpg" width="640" /></a><br />
Time for the fun part. Go to Edit- Copy, once you have clicked on the letter you want,<br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiO7qvND4fiFFNY7z4WxWd1LF39sp05Ub34-9LRtUVg06gXtntjHzP72h4rPeZIg2ODmsZhosfNjIC9IP5AFHqYj1QZVlQm0pmCHuw3TJO723nXR_4PoxkUGEJqihWNdYOAytc6r0CZn7Y/s1600/10.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiO7qvND4fiFFNY7z4WxWd1LF39sp05Ub34-9LRtUVg06gXtntjHzP72h4rPeZIg2ODmsZhosfNjIC9IP5AFHqYj1QZVlQm0pmCHuw3TJO723nXR_4PoxkUGEJqihWNdYOAytc6r0CZn7Y/s640/10.jpg" width="640" /></a><br />
go to your original blank document that is there whenever you open Silhouette studio, and go to Edit- Paste.<br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhFfSyn00GxRlbAHf0-GrO6OgxMyTBiN92XUQ2Ixgy4w5HRGzfGK8VS_iOHpPdkJxpcsIczP9fN1nEJ3K-xnXJwQUUPyI6gbbu_1KWgeYkLgAZQG8z4nRM5EDL60sNJiqQYmqYyvLOnvW8/s1600/11.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhFfSyn00GxRlbAHf0-GrO6OgxMyTBiN92XUQ2Ixgy4w5HRGzfGK8VS_iOHpPdkJxpcsIczP9fN1nEJ3K-xnXJwQUUPyI6gbbu_1KWgeYkLgAZQG8z4nRM5EDL60sNJiqQYmqYyvLOnvW8/s640/11.jpg" width="640" /></a><br />
Tra La!<br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCwK5Kso_4k7rZ7xeyHonG8iV1pgN5WfyQb_7l448IBl3KfRDnxMYDEY6T2caKuYyrMjSOhICEpNZ5cchU2mjOfKQ_yaUrmmHi_13vPP3nlDD6Q0IeZoecbuoFcd2elqTf_asNKWLC958/s1600/12.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCwK5Kso_4k7rZ7xeyHonG8iV1pgN5WfyQb_7l448IBl3KfRDnxMYDEY6T2caKuYyrMjSOhICEpNZ5cchU2mjOfKQ_yaUrmmHi_13vPP3nlDD6Q0IeZoecbuoFcd2elqTf_asNKWLC958/s640/12.jpg" width="640" /></a><br />
Now go to your other documents and do the same steps with the other letters you want.<br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjpoTMHIqwiSbgg8Y2RXYrhXLgmAuZTpDnKy32fwDBnYWFEmggEELu-Jpk6kkgOvkgFRJBnH7oL3HKjTKOrzI7c03XoD921eKWrHtgsyDoR_-B1iX2zATRZsyStST2BhuPJptCfJAfEhMo/s1600/13.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjpoTMHIqwiSbgg8Y2RXYrhXLgmAuZTpDnKy32fwDBnYWFEmggEELu-Jpk6kkgOvkgFRJBnH7oL3HKjTKOrzI7c03XoD921eKWrHtgsyDoR_-B1iX2zATRZsyStST2BhuPJptCfJAfEhMo/s640/13.jpg" width="640" /></a><br />
If they are different sizes like they are here, simply click one corner and hold shift while you drag it out. Holding shift will make sure it stays the right dimensions.<br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHQNA1Pi_Zh-H7qf_fHlTdkMX_6UZP61qtU5L01eYhTvnjNYaS9tFlACeox-AbuNN96jtFR-m6NgFLvAFKvidZAhaIMU_0qs2s9FYKdcsuoqLyQgkJoKc5VceBSPfjKsSTvbjImPN3l3U/s1600/14.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHQNA1Pi_Zh-H7qf_fHlTdkMX_6UZP61qtU5L01eYhTvnjNYaS9tFlACeox-AbuNN96jtFR-m6NgFLvAFKvidZAhaIMU_0qs2s9FYKdcsuoqLyQgkJoKc5VceBSPfjKsSTvbjImPN3l3U/s640/14.jpg" width="640" /></a><br />
Now to add your frame! For simplicity's sake I used one of the frames from the same file, but you can go crazy at this point and use whatever you want! Copy your frame from your other document,<br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJS38_HYPSt2om6vi2-OwhIH9FwxYVe0ZE1cHPW1nl5V1b7rYTbzhgWd4A_YSr8edE90mv8z33VeROlP16E03PvhtSoOhSUa10lwaZib_nb5AcGUtGE3Rx7-YD1Wv1ilgWJwnGHbw81Ow/s1600/15.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJS38_HYPSt2om6vi2-OwhIH9FwxYVe0ZE1cHPW1nl5V1b7rYTbzhgWd4A_YSr8edE90mv8z33VeROlP16E03PvhtSoOhSUa10lwaZib_nb5AcGUtGE3Rx7-YD1Wv1ilgWJwnGHbw81Ow/s640/15.jpg" width="640" /></a><br />
and paste and drag it to your desired location.<br />
<br />

It's that simple! Hope that helps some of you and have fun! :)<br />

I had the pleasure of seeing this baby in action at the Silhouette Summit that I attended, and I was already in love. </div>

When the package arrived I was a little intimidated at first but just couldn't wait to try this thing out, and an hour later I already had a stamp made! I am super excited about this machine because this means that we are so much closer to having a BIG thermal imaging printer for stencil making and whatever else you can think of! All of this technology touches on the same idea that GOCCO machines use, using heat to burn an image into thermal media. So in essence, this little contraption <i>could</i> be a future self contained screen printing machine. (fingers crossed)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Anyway, I wanted to make something fast, for the holidays and personalized. So I threw together this little stamp that I will use on my Christmas gifts:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
And loaded up my new Mint software, which was surprisingly painless, as was the entire stamp making process! Its was so ridiculously easy, here were the steps:</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
1. Open your design</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
2. Choose stamp size</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
3. Center image</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
4. Choose filter (if needed, I think you might only really need these if you're trying to use a photo)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
5. Click "Start Mint" ***Before putting in stamp***</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
6. Put in stamp cartridge </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
TRA-LA! Thats all there is to it, the entire process took about 10 minutes, on my first try! Here are the results: </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Here is the stamp fresh out of the Mint and mounted on its block:</div>

<span id="goog_1540092091"></span>And stamping to get all the excess ink off. You can see the detail that this little machine can achieve, The only reason my stamp looks a little "messy" is because I added grungy textures to it so it wouldn't be too perfect. </div>

I can't wait to make more stamps, my head is already filled with ideas! The possibilities are endless, you can use photos, which is something that the Silhouette definitely cannot do. It opens up so many more ways for you to personalize something, and FAST. I highly recommend grabbing one of these, especially if you already an avid Silhouette-er. Has anyone else had success stories with this little toy yet? I would love to see what others come up with. :) Happy stamping! </div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">If you know me, you'll know that I can be a little obsessive. I have
been wanting to start foiling for a while now and I was torn about
whether or not I should buy Heidi Swapp's Minc machine, or go with a
"cheaper" lamination machine, which supposedly works just as well. After
lots of video watching I decided to try to save some money.</span></span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">I am already used to messing around with
toner from working with my Gocco. I think people should know that it's
not exactly easy to just find a copier that uses toner these days. I
know that my local copy place does not use toner anymore, just FYI. For
me buying a laser printer is a no brainer because I will be using it for
multiple things. I actually had an old one is storage but the ink is no
longer made, so I decided to upgrade to a Brother laser printer.</span></span><br />

<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">I
started out ordering a Swingline laminator, and the results were not
great. Anything that is worth showing for this test was laminated after I
let the thing heat up for at least an hour. It still definitely worked,
I just wanted it to be perfect, the black spots sticking out really
bugged me. </span></span></div>

</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">It seemed like there was a lot of room for error, and I
couldn't help obsessing over pinterest pictures where the gold foil was
perfect. Running it through the laminator 3-4 times, waiting that long
for it to heat up all for mediocre results just wasn't good enough, and
it looked like all laminators pretty much worked the same, unless they
were expensive. After watching lots of Youtube videos, I decided to run
out and buy a Minc machine, and after seeing that there were a couple at
my local Joanns. And guess what, it was on clearance for $89.99!</span></span></div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Since the Minc
came with some sample foil, I was able to test my results with both the
Minc foil, and the art deco foil. Overall I think both foils are pretty
much the same in terms of quality. It seems like the red has better
coverage than the blue for some reason, the red was able to adhere much
more while the blue had a good amount of problems. </span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Still one tiny flaw, not sure why, but looks way smoother! This was on setting 3, I think if you're using card stock, just go ahead and go up to 5.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">After
only spending 10 minutes with the Minc, it was clear who the winner
was. The Minc had results that were infinitely superior to what the
laminator could do. I tried making a few pages for my planner (planner
accessories coming soon!), and wanted to try a bunch of different papers
besides plain white. I was most excited to try to foil kraft paper, in
my head it looked so neat.</span></span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">I am just amazed at how different the results are from the laminator, the pictures really don't do it justice.</span></span></div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Considering
the Laminator was around $30 (which is getting returned), I feel like the Minc is worth the extra
money. The time and foil that will be saved from eliminating errors with
the Minc is definitely worth it, especially if you want to make high
volumes of prints, like I want to do. It was also nice that some foil
came with the Minc so that I could test it out without buying more
products. </span></span></div>

<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Use the smoothest paper you can find</span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Make sure your settings on your printer output the most toner possible (highest dpi/quality)</span></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Minc: Worth it<br />"Cheap" Laminator: Worth it if you're not a perfectionist<br />Art Deco Foil: just as good as Heidi Swapp foil<br />Minc Foil: Wonderful!<br /><br />Here is my list of materials:</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">I just love the texture that came out with the stencil brushes.

I have just
been going crazy creating stuff lately, so I decided to open up another
shop to go along with<a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/SophiesPaperHouse?ref=hdr_shop_menu#" target="_blank"> Sophie's Paper House</a>. I wanted to start making printable art and typography, so here is <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/SophiesPixelHouse?ref=hdr_shop_menu" target="_blank"> Sophie's Pixel House</a>!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Gallery walls are so trendy these days, and with my art you can set
one up cheap and easily. Don't spend a ton of money when you can do it
yourself, and it's way more fun!</span> <br />

I thought that <a href="http://sophiegallo.blogspot.com/2010/09/my-business-cards-or-my-everest.html" target="_blank">making my business card </a>was one of the most labor intensive things I had ever created. My wedding invites blew that right out of the bucket.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I knew that I wanted to incorporate die cut elements, as an homage to my work with <a href="http://www.silhouettedesignstore.com/?page=view-artist&artist_id=41853" target="_blank">Silhouette</a>. I ordered samples of paper from <a href="http://cardsandpockets.com/">cardsandpockets.com</a>. I chose them because they had the most unique templates that I could find to use as my base. I decided to go with this <a href="http://www.cardsandpockets.com/signaturePocketFramered.aspx" target="_blank">styl</a>e: </div>

I also ordered a swatch book to help me decide on the other colors I needed, white, black, and gold. Here is my little buddy helping me pick the colors.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I used the measurements from the pocketframe card and started die cutting my "white gold" paper, at this point I would literally have both of my Silhouette machines going at the same time, this was the most tedious step. </div>

Once I got all the pieces all cut out, I started to Gocco my gold designs onto the papers. I am so obsessed with my <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iJzkhfWwrXM" target="_blank">Gocco</a> machines it's not even funny, I would do anything to figure out a way to revive this dead art.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This is my setup: I had to find that HP printer in the background especially for Gocco-ing. That printer is one of the few that prints with carbon ink, which barely exists anymore. Every once in a while you will see some old carbon ink cartridges pop up on ebay, and those are usually snatched up by me :)</div>

Just a few more steps to go! I ordered both the round and square gold double mat straight from Cards
& Pockets, so that saved me some steps. I sent the white paper through
my Silhouette to get that double rounded edge on all the cards. I also ordered the envelope liners straight from Cards & Pockets as well, which saved a ton of time and energy.</div>

Then you can tie up the top of the bag, and Close up the top. I used some cute washi tape to close mine. You can also personalize the van by writing someone's name on the side panel, or wherever! You can add some cute flowers to the sides, or put in some Scooby snacks for your dog lover friends. The possibilities are endless. :)</div>

I have some new pop up cards in my Silhouette store, one for <a href="http://www.silhouetteonlinestore.com/?page=view-shape&id=57500" target="_blank">birthdays</a> and one for <a href="http://www.silhouetteonlinestore.com/?page=view-shape&id=57445" target="_blank">Easter</a>. I thought I would make a tutorial on how to assemble both of them for you!</div>

First cut out both cards and the elements, obviously it's good to use lots of different fun colors! I am going to use generic plain paper for the sake of being simple:<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Attach the candles and icing with tape. Sometimes if I want some extra depth I'll take some left over scrap paper and fold it into a little box to put behind things.</div>

I want to hang them on the walls to create shelves, but I can't do that yet, because we are moving! So this will probably be my last post for a while, as I start to pack up my craft stuff. But here are some photos of a couple of the wine crates I managed to take pics of before packing:<br /></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKYotjvyges072xSntb3selsJ_u3vz2kJJLEobdXysT8iodGFIsj8c_-N4MyKN_paecat6E6ufKiW-9g-fJVSIfvK3CkH3HypW5osqxdrnO0nulLBlNYWcoO1xGC8Dycj6yhw-yeUYiqI/s1600/1.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 333px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKYotjvyges072xSntb3selsJ_u3vz2kJJLEobdXysT8iodGFIsj8c_-N4MyKN_paecat6E6ufKiW-9g-fJVSIfvK3CkH3HypW5osqxdrnO0nulLBlNYWcoO1xGC8Dycj6yhw-yeUYiqI/s400/1.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5607391002573426130" border="0" /></a><span style="font-size:85%;"><br /><br />I managed to collect about 11 crates, some I got for free, some I had to buy, and some had fancy lids and other unique details. I sanded all of them down, teak oiled them to make the wood stronger, stained, and then poly-d them. These I stained in a walnut finish and then I used my awesome retro stencils to decorate all the sides of the crates. Then I lined the inside with these cute papers I found.</span><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEilsQnDqHEEEXcNsqmEqYqEy_UAy2HviDV4fEfzKKtNwI27iEMiNcAZ7Bqdrf4UAOgOwtLoJ9WsgPwLRYs4wRLD1hMkdKuDueEVIq81I7wIt5xNhyphenhyphennnuRIaeTa1__oKcfQuCNx35uuDJnk/s1600/2.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 333px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEilsQnDqHEEEXcNsqmEqYqEy_UAy2HviDV4fEfzKKtNwI27iEMiNcAZ7Bqdrf4UAOgOwtLoJ9WsgPwLRYs4wRLD1hMkdKuDueEVIq81I7wIt5xNhyphenhyphennnuRIaeTa1__oKcfQuCNx35uuDJnk/s400/2.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5607391005981039026" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><span style="font-size:85%;">I went a little crazy at the Paper Source store when I went to get paper for the crates.
