First Halloween card


Hi,
I am not into Halloween but there are those that are and so I will make a few cards just for them.
This is a file from Birds bendy cards  http://www.birdscards.com/house-cards/
The bats are from the site http://www.idiecut.com/
There are two pictures because the wonky one on the bottom shows the cloud vellum that I used and also shows the whole Halloween word.
Have a Blessed day.

Love pop up card


Hi
O.K. I have had a gentle nudge from 2 dear blogging friends (you know who you are !! Juliet and Curt )
to get making cards again so here is one I just made.  The file comes from http://underacherrytree.blogspot.com/
The polka dot paper is part of the library in the Silhouette Cameo (my brand new cutting machine).
The love insert is attached to the inside of some paper I have had for awhile and so don't know the name of it.  I added one of the gerber daisies I have in my stash. 
When I figure out how to print and cut the fonts there will be a shape with the words "makes the world go round" attached under the word love.
Have a Blessed day.

New Home Welcome


Hi
My friend, Myoriah, moved into a new place a few months ago and I have just gotten around to sending her this card.  She has been so helpful sharing her knowledge, files and most of all her support.  Myoriah, you are such a lovely person and I am so happy you are my friend.  Her site is very interesting http://craftingfrugalway.blogspot.com/

Have a Blessed day.

I am impressed......are you?


Hi
I think I am in love.  In love with my new Silhouette Cameo that is. 
I have not had much time to play with it but the three projects I have done impressed me greatly.  The first picture is a file from http://www.birdscards.com/pennants-10/ cut with the Cricut Expressions.  The few squares that are out of the pendant had to be cut with an exacto knife. 
The second picture is cut from the same file with the Silhouette Cameo.  Also used was the gorgeous linen cardstock from a lovely blogging friend, Chrissy at http://chrissys4cards.blogspot.com/.  The Cameo cut beautifully and left only a couple little pieces but they will just flick off.  I only left them so you could see the differences.
Many thanks go to my beautiful friend, Myoriah, for all her support.  Her site is here http://craftingfrugalway.blogspot.com/
I am so impressed and can hardly wait to try some more intricate cuts. 
Have a Blessed day.
