I Used My Slice!…
YAY! I used my Slice! At first I panicked because it would not cut through cardstock. With a quick little adjustment, I was on my way! If you are having problems like this, THIS PAGE on the Slice site has very helpful videos to watch. I love this resource page! What a wonderful idea…do you think anyone will catch on to this? {crossing fingers!}
I’m guessing that you really don’t want to hear too much about me in awe of their videos, and would rather see what I made. So here it is. I altered a tin to give to my friend, Rosie…
The plaque shapes behind the letters are from the Noteworthy design card, and the letters are from the FaLaLa design card. I used the Swiss Dots Cuttlebug embossing folder on the Kraft piece after I cut out the shape. I have yet to try to cut on anything other than flat cardstock or patterned paper.
I picked up this little crown at Paper Tales in San Diego. I am so proud of myself for you using it so quickly and not hoarding it! LOL!!
Here’s a detail shot of the flower {from Stamping Bella} and Swarovski crystal that I added for detail on either side of her name….
Finally, here is the top of the the tin. These are some Prima Sprites that I got at eclectic Paperie.
This morning I am back to the gym after a way to long break. I am sure I am going to feel it tomorrow! I had no problem taking in every guilty food pleasure yesterday as a last hoorah, knowing that I would be pack to the routine today {ugh!}.
so cute! i too love my slice!
How cute is that, Jen! I’ve been debating on getting the Slice and you’re only enabling me. Tsk! Tsk!
Looks great Jen! I received one for Christams too and I can’t wait to play!
How cute Jen! I was thinking of getting the Slice because it’s small and portable. But I have the Quikutz Shilouette already. But still thinking thou……will wait when the price goes down a bit.
This is AWESOME Jen…do NOT make me want one of these!! LOL!
Wow…that’s the cutest tin I’ve ever seen. Awesome job Jen. Happy Holidays.
Oh so cool you got to use it! Your altered can is just delightful!
So cute! I love the little crown! This is the second or third time I’ve heard the word ‘Slice’. What is it? I didn’t go to the site you recommended because I’m on dial-up and can’t watch videos.
Fantastic Jen! So cute! Love all the little details you added to this tin. Been thinking of getting a Slice too….they look interesting! Good luck at the gym!
you are just doing this to taunt me, aren’t you? that’s not nice. i hope the workout at the gym kicks your butt for me. teehee.
I WANT MY SLICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Jen, very cool project! Isn’t Paper Tales in SD the greatest? I live in what I like to term, “a shopping wasteland” and going to “the big city” is great. Thanks for your continuing inspiration, and have a Happy New Year!
