Take Out Tuesday Freebie: Now That's The Ticket! SVG Download June29

Hi all you Dandi Crafters! I hope you are having a wonderful day. Let's dish the Tuesday Take Out. I can hear you saying, yes that's why we're here that's the ticket...Indeed it is the ticket. I have been laying around lately watching tv and movies with my daughter. Lots of them lately have had tickets in them, Willy Wonka and the chocolate Factory, The Polar Express (I always call it the Polar Bear Express and my kid's always correct me. Don't tell them I caught on and I actually know the name.) Anyway sometimes you just need a ticket and by watching these movies I can tell you it can't be any ordinary ticket so neither is mine! LOL
It is a cute little fancy ticket. You will have to put your information inside the ticket however. This actually would make a super duper cute journaling box too.
This ticket as it is shown here is about 3.5 inches wide. You'll find the exact measurements in the text file along with the copyright and terms of use and some tips on assembly. Both svg and SCAL, scut files are included in the folder. The scut file was created in SCAL so it should work in SCAL 2 or SCAL 1.

The zip file also includes:
•A shadow Ticket Layer(shown in blue)
•A Base Ticket Layer(shown in light blue)
•A Top Ticket Layer (shown in white)

Father's Day Gratitude Faux Wallet with SVG Download

Hi all you Dandi Crafters! I am excited about this project because it is the first project that I completed as a Design Team Member for Sugar Sweet Paper Treats. The theme of this challenge was Stitches. So be sure to pop over there and visit and comment (it will make me look good!. LOL) Come'n at you today is this cute little Father's Day Gratitude Faux Wallet. The wallet is faux not the gratitude...LOL The wallet has little pockets. Each of my 4 kiddos took an index card and wrote something that they were grateful for about their Dad and a nice little extra chore that they will perform to make Dad's life easier. Then I took a snap shot of the kids and placed in the picture pocket area. The picture and filled in gratitude index cards are not shown because the kids felt those should be for Dad's eyes only. But I am sure you get the idea.

[Added: 06-14-10
I also entered this project in My Sheri Crafts Challenge #9 which is a Father's Day theme challenge. I think it has bit of a Father's Day theme...LOL Pop over there and see the many great projects

I also entered this project in the Fantabulous Cricut Challenge Blog where you had to "create a masculine project for dear dad"
]

This is what the wallet looks like before it is assembled. Of course you will have to add the faux stitching yourself. The wallet itself is made up of 4 pieces. The wallet is made to cut out using only 2 pieces of 8.5 x 11 paper. You can cut the index cards out on what ever paper you have laying around handy. I also used cuttlebug's embossing folder, classeur de gaufrage, Spots and Dots, Pois and Point, to give it a bit of texture to add some interest.
I also used some vinyl I had around to add a super dad logo to the front. The Super Dad I made up and cut out in SCAL but the lightening bolt emblem is from Cricut Cartridge/Cartouche Paper Dolls Dress Up, page 56 Accessories 2, no shift key, in the hand book.

Add a bit of velcro to the tab area and the wallet will stay shut.

You can find everything to make the wallet in the zip folder. The exact measurements can be found in the text file along with the copyright and terms of use and some tips on assembly. Both svg and SCAL, scut files are included in the folder. The scut file was created in SCAL so it should work in SCAL 2 or SCAL 1.

The zip file also includes:
• The main Wallet
• 2 pockets a small and large. (Put the smaller on top of the larger)
• 1 Picture pocket
• 3 index cards. (The tabs are in different positions)

Take Out Tuesday Freebie: Hearty Scallop Frame SVG Free Download June 8

Hi all you Dandi Crafters! Well it's Tuesday and you know what that means. It is time for some Take Out! This weeks Take Out Tuesday is a layered scallop frame with a heart. The frame as seen here is 5.25 inches tall. It makes a great frame but it would be cute to use as a journaling box too.
You can find the exact measurement size along with terms of use and copyright notice in the folder.

The zip file also includes:
•A Shadow Frame (shown lime green)
•A Base Frame (shown in blue)
•A Scalloped Square (shown in light blue)
•A Heart (shown in dark blue)

The scallop square (shown in light blue) when it cuts has outline by product. This was intentional as I thought it would provide more creative choices for layering. So when you cut that layer you have an outline of the scallop square too.

I provide DtsArt Take Out Tuesday Freebies as a way to say thank you to my regulars that follow me. Take Out Tuesday downloads are only available on Tuesday and Wednesday. If you do not follow me consider doing so, so you won't miss any more Take Out Tuesday Downloads.

I Love Your Blog Award For Lil' Ol' DtsArt Blog



Hey will you look at that. I woke up this AM to an award. At my advanced age I don't take awards lightly. When you grow up it is not like you get awards everyday. Oh how nice that would be, wouldn't it. Oh your hair looks great today, here is an award. Oh you did the right thing by returning that wallet, here's your award. How spectacular of you to clean up a mess that wasn't yours, here is your award. Nope, life's not like, so I appreciate when someone pauses from their day to say here is a gold star for you. Keep up the good work! Who was that someone? Well the one who paused from her busy schedule to say, "hey, I officially like your blog is...Judy from Judy's Card Making and Papercrafts Thanks so much Judy. Thank you for noticing my lil' blogging pit stop on the fast moving, fast paced, faster than the speed of light, net.
Now to officially get this award I have to mention 10 things that I love. Which is good because I really don't talk that much about myself, I never know what to say...LOL. Then I have to pass this lil' ol' blog award along to 10 others. So let's get this party started.
10 Things I LOVE.... in no particular order

#10. ABC's FlashForward....Oh man this show is so me!! It is not lost on me that there are a few alumni from Lost on there either...LOL Get it,? Lost on me...Lost from the Awesome Lost Show that just concluded their final season....LOL

#9. Mexican Food...LOVE IT... I don't know how many days straight I could eat Mexican food in a row, none of my family will let me find out. There all, "let's have some other kind of food". Shesh, what's wrong with them! There is no other kind of food there is just stuff we eat in between until we can get back to eating Mexican food...LOL

#8. Chocolate...Oh my I don't tell anyone this but I can and sometimes do eat it for breakfast. SSHHH!! don't tell the kids! I know right, how terrible is that?!! But you know what when I eat chocolate for breakfast I get why they say that breakfast is the most important meal of the day...LOL

#7. Big Brother. Oh Wow did I just admit that out loud? My husband likes me to keep this a secret and not tell too many people. He says the fact that I watch this show makes my IQ go down several HUNDRED points, and for the most part I agree with him. It is low brow, pitiful, excuse for entertainment....and I LOVE it. LOL I don't watch too much reality TV I watch Survivor sometimes but that's it, no idol, no dancing with the stars, no amazing race, no bachelor or bachelorette.... But Big Brother....Oh man stick a bunch of people in a house tell them they can't go anywhere, they have to compete in challenges, and if they don't do well in the challenges you are going to torture them with sub-human food known as slop and possibly vote them out....I am there, so there. So now if you have to stop reading my blog for all times, I understand. I get it, if you told me you watched big brother too I would have to consider that maybe I needed to stop hanging out with you too...Then we could talk about, "Can you believe what you know who did to so and so"...ROTFLMBO...

#6. Drawing, especially on the computer. I love it! What can I create today. What pretty colors can I watch dance across my screen as I move my pen across my wacom pad. What wonderful effects can I apply with my plugins to make people say how did she do that and me say, "Oh shesh how did I just do that...LOL

#5. Disney World...oh how I love it. It is not a place, it is a state of mind. This is the first place that my husband and I ever took a vacation to when we were first dating. I got married at Disney World at the Grand Floridian. It is where we went on holiday when I was pregnant with all 4 of my kids. It is the first vacation we took them on when they were born. It is a place that when I go on holiday, I still do not bring a computer, that I just soak in the whole experience. The place where I have my 4 kids and husband together without anyone needing to run off to.... For several days there are no other distractions other than being a family and spending time together, discussing memories and funny family moments and making new ones.

#4. My ipod! It is only thing that makes the treadmill bareable. You know I have to get on the treadmill, HELLO...I eat chocolate for breakfast!! You know that commercial for Microsoft where they have a man or woman tell you how great windows 7 is and they tell you what it can do and then they say that was my idea... Well the ipod was my idea... As a kid I always dreamed how great it would be to have a tv, radio, together in one device that you could carry around in your pocket. How amazing it would be to be able to just record songs that you liked and play them in any order whenever you wanted. Yea the ipod was my idea.....of course I am of the generation where parents first used the TV to baby sit their kids. I don't think it is any coincidence that Jobs and I are about the same age and from the same generation. I think the ipod was a collective idea that every kid my age dreamt about....because unlike today the grown ups chose what the family watched on TV back then. It was heaven when you were a kid and the TV was free and you could actually turn the channel yourself to watch what you wanted to. Now it doesn't matter. I have an ipod. Let my husband keep his "man" remote. I will just play on my ipod...Did I tell you that I got 5 million on the Wild West Pin Ball app. The high score for the house thank you very much...LOL

#3. My kids...4 of them. They are all great, have their own personality. Although they all look a like, they act nothing alike. Each one has wonderful attributes that I find myself admiring, that I don't possess myself. They are all perfect, everything I ever wanted...then they wake up....and act like, well they act like, siblings to each other... I know that I love them, I know this because in spite of having 3 teenagers in the house I don't choke'm.

#2. My husband... He is a wonderful man. That is all I will say because when I was filling out the form to get this blog they asked me if I would have adult content on this site and I said NO....LOL besides if I told you more you might be jealous and try to get him for yourself...LOL

#1. My Life....Oh how I love it...it is wonderful. I get up everyday and say good morning to my 4 healthy well adjust kiddos and kiss my wonderful husband good morning. I am living the "Bewitched" life except I don't have all those crazy, cookey, witch and warlock relatives popping in making my life challenging...OK you got me, I don't have witch and warlock relatives, but I do have the rest and I really am living a "Bewitched" life. I guess I should have named my daughter Tabitha. I think my husband would probably prefer if we were living the, "I Dream of Jeannie" life but hey it's my blog I get to pick the TV show, but only on my blog... well and my ipod...Thanks for that Steve...LOL

Now to pass this award onto 10 blogs, in no particular order. These blogs always have some awesome projects on them.
1. Cindy's Wishes
2. Paper Crafts by Candace
3. Greenbean's Crafterole
4. A Place to BE HAPPY
5. Organized Chaos
6. Stuck On Glue
7. The Scrap Avenue
8. Turned Gypsy
9. Pink Cricut Dreamin'
10.  Papier Gardens
Now go explore why these blogs are so great.

DtsArt 100 Followers Celebration!

Hi all you Dandi Crafters!! I am happy to say that I have reached 100 Followers! YEA ME!! GO ME!! LOL No really YEA YOU!! and Thank You! I have to say that I have come here unprepared. I feel like one of those actresses at the Oscars that comes up on stage and gives a lame, dorky, but disarmingly charming, speech because she had nothing prepared because she didn't think she would win. Well I don't know, I guess I thought it would take longer to be reach 100,or some of you, a lot of you, would come to the conclusion you got it wrong, I am not crafty and stop following me. LOL Well thank you for sticking with me and following me and maybe thinking from time to time that I have a crafty good idea. Any way I just wanted to say Thanks and to come back Wednesday! Ya, by then I will have 1. Figured out something, and 2. Have time enough to create it and upload it. I didn't want to reach 100 followers and not acknowledge it and say Thank YOU! OK See Ya back on Wednesday!

Take Out Tuesday Freebie: I Only Have Eyes For YOU Beaker SVG Download June 1


Hi all of you Dandi Crafters! Thanks for meeting me back here today for another Take Out Tuesday! This week I am providing another sneak peak at my pending Monster Mania release. I only have eyes for YOU! Beaker....LOL Get it, the beaker only has ONE set of eyes, and there for you...hehehe LOL Well I thought it was funny, ok I thought it was dorky too, but it is best you find out how I really am early on.
Anyway as you can tell from this sneak peak along with the last sneak peak that Monster Mania is going to be a light hearted fun release.
The beaker in the sample is about 3 inches high by about 1.75 inches wide. The exact measurements along with copyright and terms of use are included in the folder.

The zip file also includes:
• A base layer beaker (shown dark blue)
• A beaker cap (shown in brown)
• Eyes (shown in light blue)
• A Top Beaker (shown clear. Look close you can see it in the picture)

The eyes are a set of circles and they are grouped together so that no matter how you size them they will stay in proportion to each other. For the example here I cut the eye set 3 different times in black, white and light blue. However, they are eyes and that means you can add or not add as many layers as you like. Of course it is a beaker so you can put a lot of other junk in it besides eyes. LOL Also, I do want to mention that there is only a single eye set included in the folder not two. I didn't want you to be searching for a second one going where is it. I only included the SVG files in this folder as I am not sure how many are actually using the SCAL files. If you are, let me know if that is how you prefer it by posting a comment. I do put up Tuesday Take Out for my regular followers and want to do what is easiest for them.
DtsArt Take Out Tuesday Freebies are provided as a way to say thank you to my followers and available for a limited time only, Tuesday and Wednesday, so be sure to download it soon.
