Silhouette Cameo - Get well card

Hello Friends,

One of the wonderful things about making a card using the Silhouette Software is that you can easily re-produce it - differently (if you wish)!

After being inspired by this great class to make the Christmas card I showed earlier, I decided to use the same file to make this Get Well card for my friend who is recovering from an op......

I did change the words, the image and the shape on which the main image is stuck to, but having the sizes all ready and waiting, it was easy to re-write new appropriate words for this card.

I popped onto my Silhouette Crafting Friends FB a short while ago and found someone (Kevin Perry) had made a cut file for a small packet of tissues so without further ado, I downloaded it and made this.....

Wow, I think this guy is clever!  I made it to match my card and it will be a little gift for my friend.  Here is a photo of the tissues and card together...

Have I told you lately how much I love my Silhouette Cameo????

Happy crafting.

Holiday Card Workshop 2013

Hello Friends,

Monday was Day 1 of the new On-line Card Class.  I enjoyed making this card with my Silhouette Cameo & Maja Design papers......

It is a really simple "z" fold card, with the sentiment cut and split between the front and the back.  You can see that better on this picture.....

I designed the Christmas tree myself and may just make a few more of these now I have the file saved in my Silhouette Studio software.

Have a happy crafty day and thanks for popping by.

Silhouette Crafting Friends - Card Swap

Hello Friends,

I belong the Silhouette Crafting Friends FB group, we do have a great laugh on there sometimes!  One of the ladies has organised a card swap, what a great idea - I thought!

Here is what my swapping partner will receive any day now...

The Christmas tree is a download from the Silhouette on-line store, but the card shape was made by me ;)!

I used the new Envelope Punch Board from Stampin' Up to make an envelope to match!

All the card stock and paper is from Stampin' Up.

If you would like any lessons on the Silhouette Software or any Stampin' Up supplies, just let me know and I'll see what I can do :)!

Happy crafting.

Silhouette Cameo Lesson

Hello Friends,

I taught a one to one Silhouette Cameo lesson yesterday for one of my regular crop ladies, who is considering asking her husband for a Cameo for Christmas.

After covering all the basics on how easy the Silhouette software is to use we made a card using a sketch we found on the internet.  This is the card I made using the same sketch after she had left yesterday....

I made it for my neighbour who's birthday it is today.  I normally make him a card with a fireworks theme, so this is a change for him this year!

It was all designed in the Silhouette software and cut using the Silhouette Cameo, each piece is perfectly cut, shame it isn't so perfectly lined up.......although I'm sure it was when I made it, shame it doesn't look straight on the photo!

Hope you have time to craft today.

Thanks for popping by.
