Christmas Stocking Make the Cut Files, Converted to PDF SVG too

Well, no one seems to be taking my donate buttons seriously. I like to share my files freely, but I might start doing what other bloggers in the cut world seem to do, only offer them for free for a limited time such as a week.

Having lived on a fixed budget for years, I really don't want to do this, I would rather have those that appreciate them share what they can, and still have them free for those who really can't afford to donate.

Saying this, before I share these latest two files, I want to share where my children and I are at, at the current time. I drive an ice cream truck in the summer, so winters are always tough for us. Last summer my truck wasn't actually fully or finally fixed to run regularly until after the first of August.

I bought a van in Nov of 2010 for $2500. We just made the last payment this month. That helps free up $300 a month. So this winter won't be as tough as last year. But, we never got completely caught up from last winter.

Anyway, here we are, the third week in November, no gas in the vehicle, no milk, eggs, or cheese, no turkey for Thanksgiving, and all the kids electronics, (wii, dsi, fit board, and all their games) are still in the pawn shop, and have been for more than a year. We have had to renew them rather then lose them, because when they expired, we couldn't afford to get them out.

I did go to the food bank today, and even though we didn't get turkey, cheese or milk, (we did get eggs) and they did give me a place where I could get a turkey tommorrow. The only problem their is I don't have enough gas to even get there tommorrow.

So if any of you who enjoy my files can even spare a few bucks to donate to my paypal account I will be forever grateful. I really enjoy creating with MTC, but don't feel talented enough or experienced enough to put up stuff on Etsy yet.

With that all said, here are two adorable coloring book files I converted to MTC.

Here is a cutout card I designed. I haven't tried cutting it out yet, but it is all on separate colored layers with a black shadow layer for the stocking and a card the fits on a 8.5 x 11 inch cardstock.

Please do post anything you make with my files I would love to hear comments and see your creations

The first one, I actually reversed so it would sit on the card better. I will put a picture of the card up once I have it cut. Just click on the image to download the files.

The second one is just the image for now.

I know people are downloading and using my files. Enjoy, and Happy Thanksgiving to you all.

Laurie

PS I will be adding conversions to PDF SCUT SVG and JPG later tonight. I have to scrounge up enough change to be able to pic my 17 year old from daughter in the next hour.
