Silhouette 101 - Bee Hive

I am learning so much about my Silhouette Cameo.  It is just so much fun.  It has been so nice having this week off from work.  I don't know what I am going to do next week when I have to go back to work.  I guess I will just have to make time every afternoon to play around.

I made this card for my BIL for his birthday in a couple of weeks.  I got the files from Birds Cards, but I combined a few and made it my own.  I hope he likes the card.

Chat with you all later.

Silhouette 101 - Mom

I haven't felt good today so I want to cut something simple/easy.  I had this Mom card marked for Mother's Day so I decided to go ahead and cut it.  I really liked how it came out.  I have a few feeling that my Mom and Mom-in-law are going to get more than one card.

Which brings up a question, would you rather get cards mailed individually or a big envelope with several cards inside?  Let me know what you think.

If you have a cutter of any kind, you really need to check out Birds Cards.  She has some amazing files on her site and she put all of them up there for free.

Off to clean up the house a little.  Catch all of you later.



Silhouette 101 - Daisy Edge

I found this card over on Birds Card.  It had to be resized to make a regular card but it was practice for me and so with it.  I just love the card.  My sister had trouble with it.  I haven't heard whether she got it finished or not.  I hope so.

I hope you enjoyed the card.  Have a great evening.

Riley Challenge - Riley 0613


I can't believe I used the same stamp for the last two challenges, but it is a cute little Riley and it is almost spring.  I may have to go over to the Riley & Co site and purchase a few more stamps.  Most of my Riley's are winter and fall stamps.

The challenge over on Riley & Co was to use twine on the card.  I had trouble coming up with some thing so that is why I posted my card at the last minute.

I hope you like the card.  Have a great night.

Silhouette 101 - Lighthouse

Okay, here is today's silhouette project.  I have had this file for a while and just have never taken the time to make it so today I cut it with my new cameo.  It was just so much fun.  I can't tell you how much I enjoy my silhouette cameo.

I am going to sit down and do some actual stamping tonight.  I have a couple of challenges I want to make.

Have a great night.

Silhouette 101 - Step Card

I think my Silhouette projects are going under the heading of Silhouette 101.  There is just so much to learn.  But I am so enjoying the time.  My sister also bought one so every evening we get together on Skype and we make one project.  It doesn't matter how long it takes.  I usually make 6-8 cards, my sister only makes 1 or 2.  I have got to stop and actually send out some cards.  I have a whole stack sitting on my desk.

A friend is coming over this afternoon to stamp.  I am planning on working with my Riley stamps.  So hopefully there will be another card posted late this evening.

This card is made using the house step card over on Silhouette Online.  I wasn't sure about it at first but my sister really wanted to make the card so that is what we did.  I just adore it.  It is going to be another spring time card.  I used the tulips from there also.

I hope everyone has a special week.

Cameo Session

My sister and I have been having cameo session over Sypke so I can show her a few things.  Last night, we decided to cut out the 3D Carrot from Silhouette Online.  It is just so cute.  I made a few, I am planning on placing one of our Easter plates tonight.

 Well off to clean off my craft table.  Have a great day.
