TCP Sneaky Peek Week Day 6: Theatre Cutable!

 

Hello there inky friends!  Today I'm sharing a fun project featuring the awesome new Theatre Cutable file released this month by The Cat's Pajamas.  This cut file (and other formats too) will allow you to create two different sized theatre cards..SO FUN!  While I do have a Silhouette Cameo and a Cricut Explore, I chose to use the PDF file to have a little fun experimenting with how much scrap I could rescue!  

Alma created a fun video tutorial to show you how to make this fun card and I know you will find it quite helpful.  Just check it out to see the paper be transformed!  Here's a link for our phone viewers:  VIDEO

I worked with two different cardstock colors to create my card.  To show you that there is very little scrap (see the last photo), I took a photo of how I cut each page in the template.  

So here is the last of the scraps...collected from all of the pieces.  I was able to keep the fur rectangles- and only had the tiny bits to throw away!  WOWEE!  

Since this was my first time making this printable, there are some things I would do differently when assembling the other card (I have all the pieces ready).  I will make sure to always be aware of the printed size so that it doesn't show in the final product.  In my first piece, I accidentally glued before checking and ended up with the printer lines in some spaces.  

I liked using the cute YETI TO PARTY STAMP AND DIE SET for this project...They're new and the tiny hearts worked perfectly colored up with watercolor pencils.  

I think it also looks so sweet tied together in a satin ribbon...I just can't wait to have another opportunity (and some free time) to make another one of these fun cards!  

Thanks for hopping over.  I hope this project inspires you to create something interactive....and to master the art of minimizing your scraps!  HEE HEE!  

See you again tomorrow for another fun sneak peek project!
