Wood Sign Tutorial Over At JenniferMaker

by LoriFree Cut Files, TutorialsLeave a Comment

I've offered you free files, and I've told you what my favorite tools are for making wood signs.  It's probably about time I shared a wood sign tutorial, don't you think?  Today, I'm guest blogging over at JenniferMaker and sharing my tutorial on her blog.  I am absolutely thrilled and honored to be doing so!! As a new blogger, you cannot imagine the excitement (and panic) I felt when Jennifer asked me to contribute to her blog.  She's doing a series of blog posts right now called Make It ...

by LoriFree Cut Files2 Comments

I do enjoy creating free cutting files to give away here on my blog.  While I do create cutting files for sale over at my Etsy shop at Crafts You Cut sometimes I create one too many designs of the same idea or even the same phrase or in this case, the same song title.

So here's the free cutting file:   And here's ... Read More about Free Cutting File: Go Tell It On The Mountain

by LoriFree Cut Files4 Comments

I've created this free cutting file for you to use with your favorite craft cutter!  Well, that's not entirely true.  I created this file for me, too. PERFECTIONISM IS THE PROBLEM! Do you consider yourself a perfectionist?  I know I do.  I'm far from perfect yet, I obsess over it.  I'm learning every day to let things go--to look at something and say, "That's good enough."  Do you know I've had this blog for almost three years now?  And did you know it sat for almost two years without a ...
