What's That?

I saw this design in the Silhouette store and loved it instantly.  I don't know what happened after I cut it out! Can you tell what it is supposed to be?  The design is called flower tile, but my 7 year old says it looks like a sponge splattering paint. What do you think? - Heidi

This is a 6 X 6 size card.


Silhouette Cameo Cards

I have been trying to use my Silhouette Cameo machine more lately.  The cards that I have done haven't been too complicated and the machine cuts very well. I think that I lack patience when it comes to popping all those pieces out of what I have cut.  Take for instance the rope frame on the card below.  That frame is very intricate and even as big as I cut it there were a lot of little pieces to push out.  All in all I don't think it turned out too bad.

This card is a 5 X 7 size.

The sentiment is from a Papertrey Ink set.  I couldn't find any stamps that I could fit Happy Birthday on the whole banner so I just went with BIRTHDAY.

This is an A2 size card.
The above card is a swing card that I cut out on my Cameo.  I used some old Stampin' Up Christams paper.  The tree flips open to the inside. It is very cool - one that you have to see in person to really appreciate it. - Heidi

Positive and negative Gromit

I tried to import a picture of Gromit into my Cameo.  I managed to outline him and come up with a pattern that wasn't the best.  I used the negative area for this first card. I used the resulting inside area to make a pattern that I used to cut out the Gromit you see on card number two.  I definitely need to play around with this feature in my Cameo some more.

This card is an A6 size.

The sentiment is from a Fiskars stamp set, I think.  I have been dying to get a Gromit made and am excited that I finally have one! Have a good night - more to come tomorrow - Heidi

This card is an A2 size.

Hippo Birthday!

I acquired this stamp at Goodwill.  I have no idea why I liked it or who makes it, but maybe I thought it was funny.  I tried out the swing card on my Silhouette Cameo and added her on.


She'll make a funny birthday card. - Heidi

Silhouette Bride

I had more fun on my Cameo cutting out this bride card.  This card is the Daniela Angelova bride card and I love it's simple elegance.  I love it so much I made it twice and possibly a few more times!


I made the above card using Perfect Plum and Pale Plum with some colored pearl embellishments.  I made the train out of vellum.

The below card uses Almost Amethyst cardstock.  The sentiment is from Inkadinkado.


A little sponging goes a long way.  This card is supposed to be open with no veil, but I just couldn't do it.  Hope you enjoy! - Heidi
