Mini Album - Silhouette Cameo 2 page card

Hello Friends,

This is what I came up with after the wedding card I made and showed you in my last post.....

It is the most perfect little mini album that would lift anyone's spirits....

I decided to make two little pockets to hold a couple of tags, one on the inside front cover and the other on the inside of the back cover.  This is a shot of the inside of the front cover and first page.....

this is a shot of the middle, which I left blank in the wedding card I made the other day......

and this is a picture of the inside of the back cover, with the additional little tag, and final page.....

There is nothing on the back, just somewhere to write, if necessary.

I used the following products:

Mini Album 2 page card, downloaded and cut from the Silhouette store
American Crafts white card stock
Designer paper from the Sun Kiss collection from Prima Marketing Inc
Rubber stamps from:
            Inkylicious - Flight of Dreams
            Hero Arts - CL417 Huge Hugs
            Freebies from - Simply Homemade magazine
            Stampin' Up - Silhouette Sentiments
                                - Baroque Motifs
The beautiful red heart came from a class I'm doing with the lovely Stephanie Ackerman
and finally the quote came from a download I bought from Art from the Heart

If you would like any details or would enjoy making a project like this contact me for details of my Silhouette Cameo lessons.

Enjoy your day, I hope you find some time to craft with your Silhouette Cameo!

Silhouette Cameo - 2 page book wedding card

Hello Friends,

I was asked recently if I could come up with a nice wedding card.  My friend asked me for something different, perhaps even something I could come up with using my fabulous Silhouette Cameo!

This is what I came up using my Cameo together with some lovely stamps from Stampin' Up.......

This is how it looks from the front.....

this is it opened up.....I stamped the roses image with Versa Mark and embossed it with a mixture of white, silver and gold embossing powders...

this picture shows the middle section, which I left completely blank so they could write in it.....

this is the last page, I love this little verse, which is perfect for the occasion.....

this is a picture of the back cover.....they can add the name if they wish in the space......

and finally I thought I show you a picture of it before it is all folded into place.....

This whole thing got my creative juices flowing.....watch this space for another project using the same cut-out  from the Silhouette Store called "2 page book card".

Hope you find time to craft with your Silhouette Cameo later today.

Happy crafting and don't forget to leave me a comment if you like what you see or if you are interested in buying a Silhouette Cameo or having Silhouette Cameo lessons from me.

Silhouette Cameo - 50th Birthday card

Hello friends,

After downloading the "loopy hearts card base" the other day, from the Silhouette America store, my first thoughts were to change the design around to make the hearts go down the side like in this post, but as I had cut out the original shape first the other day, I thought I'd use it for my friend's special birthday card.

I also used the image called "a glass with hearts" and the numbers were from the download file called "scalloped numbers", both available from the Silhouette store.

The designer paper was from a Stampin' Up hostess set called Cheeful Treat, the ribbon and pink card stock are also from Stampin' Up - Melon Mambo, which is such a vibrant colourful pink.

I've so much more to share with you........keep watching this space and happy crafting.

Have a great weekend.

Take 2....Silhouette Cameo Triple Layer Card

Hi Friends,

I've had another go at the Triple Layer card to try and make it a little bit better...........

I was a little more careful with my stamping and I made the mats slightly larger, thanks to my Silhouette Cameo!

On this card I also spent extra time stamping and cutting another flower, which I embossed from behind to give it a bit more depth.  I then painted it and added some Glossy Accents by Ranger.

The card was finished off with just a bit of sparkle (Dazzling Diamonds from Stampin' Up).

Contact me if you would like to know how to make a card like this.

Enjoy your day and I hope you manage to find some Silhouette Cameo crafting time!

Triple Layer Card - Silhouette Cameo

Hello my friends,

I've been surfing the internet and there are lots of these triple layer cards around.  I think it must be a favourite amongst Stampin' Up demonstrators at the moment.

I'm not happy to do an ordinary version though, I had to make the idea a little more challenging, which is why I've made mine using my lovely Silhouette Cameo.

I am pretty pleased with how it turned out.  I think it is always worth the effort to take the time to mask off the main images (the flowers in this case), so that the background stamps don't show through.

I think I've made my mats a little small, you can see a slight mistake on the bottom left flower where the stepping of mats has shown!  I can easily change this in the software so it won't happen next time.

Enjoy your day and happy Silhouette Cameo crafting.
