Do you have a gamer in your life? I designed the “Time to Level Up” SVG card cutting file featuring a gaming controller specifically for my son, and he absolutely loved it! I’m confident that the gamers you know will love it too.
To make this project even easier, use your offcuts for cutting the small pieces. Check out our step-by-step assembly instructions here
The Level Up Gamer Birthday Card is available in the Silhouette Design Store.
One of my favorite things to do when designing is hand-painting watercolor flowers. Flowers are a versatile subject for crafting projects, making them perfect for card-making, scrapbooking embellishments, stickers, and many other creative uses. I often paint watercolor flowers for the Silhouette Design Store and would love to share some of my latest print-and-cut designs that I adore using in my own projects.

I created a process video to demonstrate how to cut files using the Silhouette Cameo. These floral designs look stunning when printed and add a beautiful touch to cards and scrapbook pages! In the video, the featured design is reduced in size and duplicated to fit four on a page. I aim to make the starting designs as large as possible to fit on an 8.5×11 inch print-and-cut page, maximizing usage options. You can find this Lavender Watercolor design here in the Silhouette Design Store.
I made these cards using this tutorial making the backgrounds with the Dry Paint Brush SVG Clipping mask and Backgrounds available in my store along with some flower offcuts I had from other projects and on the top right I made a card using the Lavender Print and Cut Flower design featured in the video. I am so loving this teqnique for card making and have had a ball making so many of these cards!
I had so much fun creating these cards using the Doodle Flowers and Grunge Daisies Monoprint papers. The card on the left is created with the Red Yellow & Pink Grunge Doodle Flowers Monoprint Background, Decorative Grunge SVG Clipping Mask using the technique in this tutorial and the Spring Floral Bouquet Print and Cut.
The card on the right is created with the Green and Blue Grunge Daisies Backgrounds, Grunge Urban Drips SVG Clipping Mask, the Blue & Yellow Abstract Flower Print & Cut & Lined Watercolor Leaves Print and Cut.

Father’s day is just around the corner in many countries around the world and while here in Australia we celebrate Father’s Day in September that doesn’t mean I have forgotten all the wonderful Dad’s out there in other parts of the world. I have designed a stylish Father’s Day Card SVG Cutting File for those of you who wish to create something special for the special Dad’s in your lives. This SVG card cutting file is perfect as is with some colourful cardstock and included file to create a coordinated insert but is also wonderful as a base to add your own embellishments.
You can pick up this wonderful card in my Silhouette Design Store, Design Bundles Store, Creative Market Store and on Etsy! Please see the images at the end of this post for full size previews. Unfortunately one of the bugs has meant the full size previews in the Silhouette Design Store are not yet available.
Many Silhouette crafters will be aware of some of the issues being experienced due to some major website updates not going as planned but the store is working albeit with the odd bug. Silhouette Studio syncing is not advised until the issues with the website communicating with the Silhouette software is resolved but any purchases made can be downloaded from the store directly until these issues are resolved. It is expected that these issues will be resoved soon at which point you should once again be able to sync your Silhouette library and have easy access to your files through the Silhouette Studio Software. If you are unsure of how to download your products direct from the store website rather than through the software I would recommend this video by Silhouette Secrets to aid you in this.
I have had a few customers mention they had trouble logging into the updated website. I also had similar issues but was able to resolve them from Chrome by clearing my cookies and cache. I have also had success accessing the store using both Edge and Opera Web Browser. Anyone I have spoken to who has had issues has been able to resolve them using these methods.
Now on to the previews of a wonderful SVG Cutting File Fathers Day Card for your special Dad!

My series of Halloween Treat Bags (instructions also work for Easter Treat Bag) are super cute for Halloween parties or for handing out to Trick or Treaters and are available in Silhouette Design Store. This adorable treat bag fits on A4 or 8.5×11″ cardstock. The pieces for the bag itself and the decorations for the front whether they be the Ghost, the Bat or the Pumpkin are all contained in the file and should be cut in the colours of your choice.
Grab the cutting files for the Treat Bags Below:
Note: follow along with this tutorial for the Easter Treat Bag. Simply rather than assembling the decoration cut and glue acetate rectangle to the inside of the egg shaped window.
Below is an assembly tutorial video or scroll below the video to view the text instructions.
The decorations for the front feature 2-3 pieces depending on which bag you have. First assemble the decorations by adhering the backs to the front piece. In the case of the pumpkin there is also the stalk which gets adhered flush with the bottom part of the pumpkin directly on the treat bag.
Once your decoration is assembled, it is time to fold and adhere your treat bag. Start by folding the score lines which for the outside corners of the bag. You can also fold the score lines which allow you to fold the sides of the bag inwards. It folds more easily if you fold the same way as the other lines first and then fold in the opposite direction. I chose to not fold the diagonal lines but you may choose to fold those to make design more crisp. Once you have folded all score lines it is time to adhere the bag. I have found it easiest to place adhesive on the smaller bottom pieces and the side tab first.
Start by folding the first smaller bottom tab flush with the next larger bottom tab to make a crisp square corner. Repeat with the second smaller bottom tab to the same larger bottom tab. Next adhere the tab on the smaller side of the bag to the inside of the larger side of the bag keeping the edges flush with each other. Next fold the final larger tab onto the bottom to close the bag by pushing the adhesive of the tab to the bottom of the bag. If needed push down on the bottom with your hand inside the bag or other implement.
Now that the bag is fully assembled adhere the front decoration. I used foam squares to give a 3D look. With the pumpkin stalk I used adhesive to adhere it flush with the top of the pumpkin. Instead of using foam squares I used regular adhesive to allow the pumpkin to stand out a little further from the face of the bag than the stalk.
