SVG Attic I-team Introduction

Hello everyone!  My name is Cyndy Gustashaw.  This is my second term on the SVG Attic I-team.  I hope I am able to continue to inspire you with my personal touches using SVG Attic files and hope you will enjoy using them as much as I do.

I am married to a wonderful man.  He thinks it's great that I have a craft I enjoy doing.  We have five children ranging in age from 30 - 5 years.

I was born in Virginia and raised in Southern California which I still refer to it as home.  I moved to North Carolina 23 years ago and live in the Charlotte area.  I love experiencing the seasons change.
I love photography and scrapbooking which evolved into paper crafting and have been doing them for over 20 years.  I like simple clean lines, less is more for me.

I have lots of favorite projects. For my introduction today I have chosen the new JGW 3D Button Jointed Bunny.  This little guy is so cute!

I used Graphic 45 - Once Upon A Springtime.  I absolutely love this paper!

Our garden at work is in bloom, so I took advantage of the sun and flowers.  

I love spring!  It is my favorite time for taking photos.

I love his little tail.  Doesn't he have the cutest little face.

I know as you look at this project some of you are thinking he looks too difficult but if you take your time and don't rush it you will have him together before you know it.  I started with the arms, legs and feet - these are very simple shapes.  Then I tackled the head and body. I had the most trouble with the ears!  It took me two and a half days to cut and put him together but I think he was worth the time.

I hope you have enjoyed my project.  I look forward to sharing with you for another six months.

Do what inspires you!

Bunny Box

I hope everyone enjoyed the Spring Hop as much as we did.  I am so happy to see spring!  I have to admit it is my favorite time of year.  For my project today I made the cute little bunny box from the new JGW Happy Easter Kit.  Added bonus, I got to use more of my Graphic 45 - Once Upon a Springtime.

He was so quick and easy to put together that I made a little family!

Doesn't he have the cutest little face.  There is just enough detail to give him character.

If you want a quick and easy project for your Easter gatherings this should be on your list.  

Do what inspires you,

Cyndy G

3d Bunny

Look at this new 3d Button Jointed Rabbit I found at the Silhouette store the other day!  I love this little guy.  If you don't have a Silhouette you can still make him, he can also be found on SnapDragon Snippets.  No matter which store you decide to get him at make sure you buy both Part 1 and Part 2!

I know some of you might be thinking "there is no way I can do that".  However, if you take him one part at a time, he's not that difficult to put together.  Each piece on it's own is not difficult.  Just take your time and before you know it you will have all the pieces put together.

I used my favorite go to paper right now, Graphic 45 - Once Upon a Springtime.

Do what inspires you,

Cyndy G.

For my project today I used:

SDS Charmingly Green

Go Green

I love this 3D clover.  I changed it up a bit by adding it to the pot from SDS Charmingly Green.  In order to insert the post for the clover I centered the hexagon shape in the lid.  The chocolate money adds just the right touch. 

Isn't this little leprechaun the cutest?  I think he is adorable.  Hope you enjoyed this stop on the hop.  Next you will visit Angeline.

Dreaming of Spring

Today I chose the Watering Can from SDS Water Wishes and the Garden Apron Card from JGW Blooming Card Kit.

I used Graphic 45, Once Upon a Springtime again.  I am in love with this paper.  Everything you make with this paper turns out beautiful.

I used the flat daisy also from the SDS Water Wishes, to accent the watering can.  I left off the upper handle because I plan on using this as a gift bag.

I used a chip board frame that came with the paper pack and a chip board tag.

I love this apron card.  The gardening tools come out of the pockets.  They are so cute.

If you know someone who loves gardening any of  these projects would make the perfect gift!

I hope you have enjoyed my project today.  Here's to hoping spring comes soon!  I am tired of the cold weather.

Do what inspires you,
