Can't download SVG files?

I found out last night that all of my old links to download any of my SVG files on my blog are dead. I just don't have the energy to transfer the files to my new file sharing website unless I know it's a file someone wants. So if you see something you like, but can't get the download, leave me a comment and I'll fix it. Otherwise, consider them expired.

Did you know how many different rakes there were?

Fall is here, and it's time to rake. But just which rake will you choose?

Here we've got your classic rake.

Next, a lawn rake that looks more like a broom gone haywire to me.This lawn rake looks less broom-like, but it's lacking a few tines.

Up next we have a more modern version of the lawn rake.

Or would you prefer the landscaping rake? If you wanted a hand rake, you're out of luck today.

Carnations

I had good intentions for all of my Mother's Day cards. I was going to make each person a card with their favorite flower on them. I started working on making carnation svg files for my grandma's card, but since I procrastinated too long, I ended up giving them all orchid cards. Oops! This carnation is very intricate, and somewhat difficult to piece together. But it's more realistic looking. A trick I found helpful when putting the petal pieces on was to use the outer part that I was about to throw away as a stencil. I glued the first petal on where it should go, and then placed my stencil piece over that and stuck the other pieces in like a jigsaw puzzle. It turned out great, but was tedious.
This one is more simple, and less carnation looking. This one would be hard to mess up. Trust me, I've tried. :D

Guitars Part 1

Today I'm uploading guitar files for a friend. Here are the first 3 options. I'm still working on some layered guitars.
The first one is very simple.


The second has more small cuts, and would work better cut larger. But I love the look of the strings.


The last is an electric guitar.

Mother's Day Cards

Today I'm posting actual projects that I've done this week. These are the Mother's Day cards that I made for my mom, grandmas, and aunts.

On this one, I used the 'fold-it flowers' that I found on Penny Duncan Creations. It took me a while, and a few ruined flowers to figure out exactly how to fold them, but I was pretty happy with the results.




I knew that the orchid is my mom's favorite flower, and wanted to make her an orchid card. My plan was to make all of my cards the favorite flower of the recipient, but I cut out about a dozen orchids, and kinda ran out of time, so lots of them got these. This is the first orchid file that I worked on. I like it, but the edges of the base layer are very thin, and rip easily.


This card is made with the second orchid file that I made. I really like the way this one turned out. I even made my first attempt at inking the edges of the pieces! Go easy on me. I'm new at this! lol
Here are the svg files for both of the orchids

Rainy Day

As the rain drips down on my head tonight (no, I'm not outside. Yes, I do have a leaky roof) I am inspired to make paper umbrellas. (Yes, I know paper umbrellas won't protect me from the rain.)

Just so you have a good selection for any project you might need an umbrella for, I came up with a few different versions that I like for different reasons. I like this one because it gives me the ability to have a multiple colored umbrella. I'm not sure I like the raindrops, but they were there, so use them if you want. Delete them if you don't.I like this one because the double layer gives it just a little extra, and it's smoother and more symmetrical.I like this one because of its simplicity. One sheet of paper. One color.

While I was looking for umbrella pictures to trace, I found this summery umbrella with a table and chairs. I couldn't pass it up.
When I found the table umbrella, I also found this summery looking bag. I couldn't leave it without the table. This one could be done with or without the stripes.
