All American Girl
I never would have attempted those letters across the page if I didn't have a KellyCraft Get-It-Straight Laser Square. It's perfect for lining up those horizontal and vertical lines, but it just works magic if you need angled words.

Here's how I did it.

Your favorite manner of adhering individual die-cut letters

Red Ribbon, 1/8" , approximately 6"
Instructions
1. Paint glossy paper with Precious Metal Color, two colors per page, and set aside to dry.
2. Cut cardstock and emboss red and medium blue Venitian M-BOSSABILITIES. Trim blue to 5 1/4" X 7 1/4" and use direct-to-paper method to add silver ink . Trim red to 2 pieces, 7" X 2 3/4". Use direct-to-paper method to add dark blue ink to red embossed cardstock. Cut off 3" of one piece of red cardstock and fold it around and adhere it (using Permanent Glue Dots® Dispenser) to the piece you cut it from to make a pocket. Set aside.
 |
| Cut and fold red cardstock to make a pocket. Use Glue Dots to hold flag folds. |
4. On dark blue background, use KellyCraft Get-It-Straight Laser Square to align red embossed cardstock and red embossed pocket straight across page, and then add the photo layer on top. Cut journaling tag from white cardstock scrap and round corners. Cut a small oval of medium blue cardstock, punch holes and tie star charm to tag pull. Adhere pull to white tag and slide it into the pocket.
 |
| Align letters with the Laser Square and make a small journaling tag to slip in the pocket. |
6. Turn your page so that the KellyCraft Get-It-Straight Laser Square beam makes a line that begins near the right upper corner and goes to about 4" from the top of the left side. Adhere first row of letters. Without moving the page or Laser Square, bring the beam down approximately 2" and adhere the last word here.
7. Cut several of the flower shapes from the painted paper using the Snowflake dies, approximately two of each color. Adhere them to the upper portion of the page.
8. Fold flag, adding glue dots as needed to help the folds stay in place.
9. Add gold Pearl Pen to the corners of the square die. Allow to dry, then trim to make corners for the photo.
10. Add additional snowflake shapes as needed and enhance with Smooch.
I'm so happy with this page. I think I'll dig through my photo stash more often!

Straight Lettering for a Tee Shirt
The KellyCraft Get-It-Straight Laser Square is such an amazing tool as it can be used in so many different ways.....just think about something you want to get straight and the Get-It-Straight Laser Square can do the job!
I turned the laser line on where I wanted to put the lettering on this tee shirt....
I lined up the letters and put them onto the shirt....
The cool part of these letters is that they are die cut from Velcro®
so they will be changeable with different fabrics.....
and always be straight thanks to the Get-It-Straight Laser Square!
Just another cool use for the Get-It-Striaght Laser Square!

Magnolia Card with KellyCraft & Spellbinders
Created by Lisa Rojas, Stampin' Queen Creations
Give The Queen A Call!
Hi Everyone,
When our Design Team Lead, Ann Butler, contacted us about doing a cross promotion with KellyCraft Get-it-Straight Laser Square and Spellbinders I was ecstatic! Everyone who follows my work knows that I'm totally in love with my Get-it-Straight Laser Square and have been since I first saw it at the CHA trade show last year! Well, I also love Spellbinders die-cutting machines and die cuts. Their die cuts have so much detail and creating with them is like a dream for a designer like me who loves lots of detail in my work.
This Magnolia card is very simple to create, but with all the delicate details in the die cuts that I used, this card also has an elegance to it that you cannot achieve with other die cuts on the market. And I think that is why Spellbinders products are so popular. I hope that you give this wonderful company a try. You won't be disappointed!

Be-you-tiful with KellyCraft Get-It Straight Laser Square
Created by: LaJeania Hicks
I created this layout for my scrapbooking club for July. I absolutely love the Claire paper pack and the fun colors that it features. The dark blue and the pinks work so well together to make a fabulously girlie layout. I have used this layout design in the past and have struggled with getting the mats straight. Of course now that I have my KellyCraft Get-It-Straight Laser Square, that is no longer an issue and everything is lined up perfectly. The layout will soon feature pictures of our daughter just being herself, which of course is always be-you-tiful!

6. Using the Get-It-Straight LaserSquare, I pop dotted the letters of my title to make it stand out.
7. What girlie layout would be complete without
some bling and flowers?
I added lots of both for the finishing touch.
Now to
