We are super excited to be teaming up with Kerri Bradford Studio for the next few days! So many of us own digital die cut machines, and if you happen to own a Silhouette, you've most likely heard of Kerri Bradford. She has been creating shapes to use with the Silhouette (they can be used with other die cut machines as well) for a few years now, and has a fabulous collection of kits to choose from in her online store. A handful of our designers are teaming up with Kerri's designers, and combining Bella Blvd's collections and embellishments with Kerri's digital shapes. We have a ton of projects to share with you over the next few days, so let's get started!
"I Love You", by Leanne Allinson.
This layout was such a fun project to put together. I simply opened the Kerri Bradford cut files I wanted to create a negative background with and aligned them on my page until I was happy with the final look. My Silhouette did the rest! I then backed my white cardstock with patterned papers from Snapshots and Daily Chevies. The names of the days of the week are now highlighted in a fun and bright manner.
Supplies:
Daily Chevies: Chevy Bell Pepper, Chevy Gulf; Snapshots: Daily Details, Free
Time, Paper Pieces, Captions; Play Date: Tabs; Ciao Chip Elements: Stars &
Hearts, Borders; Kiss Me: Just Write Journaling Stickers; Baby Blooms a Bella:
Azzini; Crochet Flowers: Dahlia, Poppy

"Friday Afternoon", by Leanne Allinson.
My eldest son recently made it onto his school soccer team but it wasn't an easy road. He had to work hard and truly persevere to earn a spot on the team. So when I saw the Kerri Bradford cut file "you are capable of wonderful things", I knew it would be perfect for this layout.
Supplies:
Making The Team: Borders, Cute Cuts, Quadrants, Alpha+Bits; Snapshots:
Bookplates; Daily Chevies: Arrows Black & White, Arrows Gulf

"Four Wishes" card, by Leanne Allinson.
It's always helpful to have extra birthday cards ready to go when that unexpected invitation arrives and with the gorgeous Birthday Girl/Boy collections from Bella Blvd, the job is almost done for you! I've created this sweet, little birthday girl card mostly from the "borders" patterned paper and personalized it with the Kerri Bradford "31 Days" handwritten number "four". I love that it takes next to no time to coordinate pieces of patterned paper from this collection and that the hardest part in creating this card, is choosing which embellishments to use with it!
Supplies:
Birthday Girl: Borders, Cute Cuts,
Alpha+Bits; Freestyle Sophisticates: Freestyle Saltwater
