Lots of you have asked how to make these stars I have been showing several times in the last few days. Well, it’s actually a super easy techniqye icon wink How To Stars

stars2 How To Stars

I had a whole paper with star cut outs that I have made with my Silhouette some time ago. So I basically just used this paper as pattern (as I had about 4 different sizes on it)

With a pen trace them onto your cardstock and then cut them out with your exacter knife and a ruler! That way you get perfectly straight lines.

Now simply take a few little paper scraps and hot glue them (or use 3D Adhesive) to the back of your cardstock and you are good to rock and roll icon wink How To Stars

This was my very first experiment with these stars. You can see, the star furthest up is not perfectly straight, as I cut it out without the ruler.

Hope you have fun with this itty bitty tutorial icon biggrin How To Stars

I’m off to edit a new video icon biggrin How To Stars

Elle’s Studio Layout

I’ve made this Layout a few weeks back about my lovely birds on the Christmas Tree. Don’t worry, the tree is gone long ago, but I had to do a page about them as they were kinda the focal point of my decorations…

As you can see I did my Glitter Splatter Technique and used some of my new Stamps icon biggrin Elles Studio Layout I love the embossed snowflakes… lalaaa icon wink Elles Studio Layout

Elle from Elle’s Studio really does an amazing job with her tags! They are super versatile and you can snip & snap them to shape. My favorite thing with them is to crunch them a bit and then distress them to give some texture.

It’s been kinda quiet on the swissgirlDesigns Blog lately, huh! Well, that is probably

  1. because I didn’t have anything real to share
  2. because I was a tad bit too busy with my Photography Business
  3. because time goes by too quickly icon wink Update, Peeks and Photos

So let’s start this off with a little Sneak Peek to a layout I designed yesterday icon biggrin Update, Peeks and Photos It’s simple, but different from what I usually do, because I challenged myself to use circles as the main focus icon biggrin Update, Peeks and Photos Fun Fun Fun!! (to challenge oneself I mean..)

Then I got a bunch of pictures I thought I could share with you today. I made them a little while ago, when Adrian and I drove around, scouting for some rad places to have photo sessions!! It didn’t really matter that Adrian didn’t cooperate too well with modeling – we had a blast anyways icon wink Update, Peeks and Photos .
