Besties Collection

Yahoo! I think spring might finally be here.

(Unless Mother Nature has an off day and sends snow.)

Today, I have a Cuddly Cute collection to share

with you.

There are so many things that these could be used for.

Matching games, cards, layouts, you name it

and they would probably work there.

Enjoy your Spring.

I will.

Nursery Rhymes

I have started making a book of

Nursery Rhymes to share with

my grandkids someday.

It is really sad that most of the kids nowadays do

not know the nursery rhymes.

I hope that my kids will remember the

nursery rhymes and that my grandkids will learn them.

Cuddly Cute Designs has 3 nursery rhymes made.

Hopefully, they will make more but if not,

I will put more than one file together to make more.

Humpty Dumpty

Little Bo Peep

Little Miss Muffet

are the rhymes that I put together from the files today.

I printed the nursery rhyme out on

white cardstock, trimmed it, and glued it

and the pieces from the file on a piece of

8 1/2 x 11. It is heavier than most

cardstock so hopefully it will last longer.

I found the nursery rhymes already printed

on the internet. They come in colored or b & w.

Here is the link if you would like those.

These nursery rhymes are not made by

Cuddly Cute Designs but I am

sharing the link to where I found them if you want them.

Easter treasures

Thanks to everyone who followed the

Cuddly Cute Designs Spring Hop yesterday.

Such talent on the Design team!

Today I have an Easter layout

that used 4 different files.

Carrot Easter Border

Jelly Bean Chick

Easter Egg Bunny

Bunny Border (free for a limited time)

For the Bunny Border, I used glitter cardstock to

give it some sparkle. It also

reminded me of the sugary Peep texture.

Wouldn't it be cute with tiny white

pompoms for tails?

Cuddly Cute Designs “Hop Into Spring” FB Hop!

WELCOME to the Cuddly Cute Designs “Hop Into Spring” FB Hop!

You’ve’ reached DT Donette 

For my Spring projects today,

I created the Egg Holders.

In the past when I have made egg holders (from other places),

I always got frustrated because the egg holder bases who tear.

For this reason, I doubled the base pieces (the part that holds the egg).

It made them a lot sturdier.

The way the file was made, if you ink the edges, it divides the

head from the ears (Thanks Tami for doing that).

The next file I made is the

Mini Easter Boxes.

The tummies of the bunny and duck hold the

treasures. What cute boxes to give extra

special treasures to a loved one for

Easter.

And the last project I have to share with you today is 

a layout using the 

Playful Bunnies

I made two things using this file.

First I made a layout.

I used embossed paper and Prima Flowers

for the photo mats.

I used one of the bunnies for a napkin ring

I added a strip of paper to the back to hold the napkin.

(Yes, it is a football napkin. My husband is a

football nut!)

I added a tag to put the name of the person

to sit at that spot.

Easter dinner is on its way!

Spring Robins

My favorite season (except for allergies)

is Spring. I love the new life that is everywhere.

Warm, not hot, weather lets us

be outside enjoying nature.

I woke to birds singing this morning.

They are excited for Spring too.

I enlarged the file

Spring Robins

and made it a door decoration.

The file pieces could be used

separate on different things.

Here I put them all together.

The finished piece is about

14 inches.

Calendar Bears June

Here is the next Calendar Bear in the Calendar Bear group.
This comes from the file Calendar Bears Apr-Jun

I enlarged the file so that the piece would end up
being about 11 inches wide.

Some lucky teacher will be getting this set of calendar toppers
to use in her classroom.

Calendar Bears May

Here is the next Calendar Bear in the Calendar Bear group.
