Catching Up

I just love this card base it sits nicely and looks different to the ordinary card. Once again using the sketch pens.

This is a card that I made using the Kaisercraft shapes and paper. I think it was called sew and sew.

How easy is this card using a cutting file from the Silhouette library and a border some flowers and a shape for the sentiment. So cute.

Catching Up

As I have been in hospital for a while I am behind in taking pictures of my cards and posting them on my blog. I recently went to a retreat and most of the cards that I am posting were made there.

My  daughter turned 30 in July and we went to Bali to celebrate. I was going to make a fantastic card but ended up in hospital. When I got out I didn't have the energy to make anything. So she missed out on getting a card for her birthday. But last week I made this simple one. The card is a file from silhouette online and the writing was done with the sketch pens.

A card made at the retreat love the colours.

This card is made using silhouettes print and cut. I selected the verse and picture and printed it on the printer then put it back on the cameo to cut around the shapes. My first Christmas card. I had better get a move on and make some more.

I love this file from the Silhouette library. It makes a lovely card. I used my sewing machine to sew around the edges then cut the shapes with the cameo and of course used the sketch pens to write the sentiment.

I used the same file as the other two but changed the size of this one. The sketch pens drew the picture from a file in the library. It's so easy to be an artist with sketch pens.

My daughters friend recently had a baby boy. This was a simple card and I used Silhouette Cameo sketch pens to write his name and draw a pram. Hope she likes it.



My niece recently turned 21,It seems no time since I was holding her as a baby.
This card was made entirely using the Cameo. The background, the numbers. the key and the sketch pen to write the sentiment.

 

 

My sons birthday card. The shape was from the Silhouette online store, where I have a subscription. The letter H stands up with a tab to attach to the bottom. My son recently completed a biking event in the Kimberleys hence the bike. Have you noticed that I love my sketch pens?





A present for my girlfriend

My husband and I have an onsite caravan at beautiful Lake Eildon. We love to fish, swim, wakeboard, ski and relax here. I pondered over what to give a friend that also has a van there for her birthday. Then after viewing a few Pinterest sites I decided an little bit of Subway art would do the trick. It would be something that she would love. Still haven't had a chance to give it to her yet, so not sure of her response.  Of course I made it with my Cameo and vinyl. Boy do those two things go well together.

Camera Case Monogram Using Silhouette Cameo

Just had to do a quick post to put a photo of the monogram that I did using vinyl and the Silhouette Cameo. I am sure that I will be making lots of labels for things as it is so easy.

School Holidays

Well today is the last day of the school holidays and it was only yesterday afternoon and this morning that I have had a chance to get some crafting done.
I've got to say that I love, love, love my Silhouette Cameo. I just got an order for some sketch pens and wow they are fantastic. No more hunting for sentiments to stamp on cards. I just type in whichever font I want and the cameo does the work. Then I pick a shape to cut around it and dada, its done. I got straight online and ordered more colours.
Here are some cards that I made in the last two days.

This is a card for a girlfriend and the sentiment is using the sketch markers by Silhouette.

We are going to my daughters friend engagement tomorrow and this is the card that I made. Shapes from Silhouette online.

These are two birthday cards I have made for friends. I wish the holidays weren't ending as I have heaps more that I want to do.

Flourishes Magnolia Stamps

I just love Flourishes stamps. They stamp so clearly and are wonderful to colour in with Copics.
