It’s Your Day-Fold Up Flower Card

  

  

I made this fun box card with my Silhouette Cameo.  The paper is called Today Tomorrow Forever by Recollections.  The cut files are by Lori Whitlock and I got them at the Silhouette online store.  She has a whole fun line of them in the store.   The card is a box that folds completely flat for mailing or gift giving.  I am a total fan!  TFL!

Hinged Skeleton

  

This fun little hinged skeleton was made from a SVGcuts collection.  Their files are just fantastic!  He measures out at 22” long finished. 

Vintage Style Hello Card

       

I love vintage and shabby chic style things.  And this card is an ode to that style.  The card base was cut with a file from the Silhouette store.  The flower is homemade.  The base and very top of the flower are made from a roll of cream mulberry spring roll paper.  The middle is a crocheted flower from Michaels.  The sentiment is a $1 stamp from Michaels.  The patterned paper is Daisy D’s.  The twine is by Tim Holtz.  TFL!

Tag Time-Peacock Feather Tag

Hi all!  Here is a tag I made to try out my new Twinkling H20’s.  The blues and purples are made with the Twinkling H20’s.  The gold is Golden brand fluid acrylic gold paint. The flower and peacock flower die cuts are cut from my Silhouette Cameo.  I am not the best photographer, so it is hard to see all the sparkle on this tag, but it has lots of it.  TFL!

bee happy

This is one of my favorite projects that I have ever done.  It is a mixed media canvas that I made for my youngest son’s third grade teacher as an end of the year gift.  She is an amazing woman!  All three of my boys have had the blessing of having her as a third grade teacher and they have all grown in their education and maturity.  I am very grateful for her! 

Her classroom theme is “H****’s Honeybee’s”.  I am leaving out her name for privacy.  So, when I came across this cut file in the Silhouette Store I immediately thought of her.  I am very grateful for the education my children have been able to get!

One in A Million

This card is inspired from http://www.sprinkledwithglitter.com/2013/03/you-are-fabulous-card-stamping-on-washi.html.  She is so talented! I love the ideas and techniques she used and will keep them in my repitoire.  TFL!

Best Wishes-Folk Art Festival

Good Day!  I have another Folk Art Festival card made with my Cricut.  The paper for this is another DCWV stack-Coral Couture.  The finished size is 6”wide x 4”tall.  The card front is popped up with pop dots. The little tag/label on the front is cut with my Silhouette.  The sentiment is stamped and the flower is the Reflections brand from Michaels.  TFL!

Butterfly Wreath

I was inspired to make this pink and zebra butterfly wreath from a magazine I saw.  The finished size is about 6 inches around.
I bought a piece of Styrofoam that is about 12”x12”x1/2”.  I cut circles with my Silhouette and drew them on my Styrofoam to use as guides.  Then I cut out the wreath shape with my craft knife.  I picked out a fabric I liked to cover the circle with.  That is the pink zebra print.  I cut it in 1”x 12” strips and then just started wrapping.  I added hot glue here and there to keep the strips of fabric where I wanted them.  You gotta be careful with hot glue and Stryofoam.  They are not best friends…lol.   I added bakers twine to hang it with next.  Then I layered the back fabric with some hot glue.
I tied a pink strip of fabric around the front, middle.  I knew I wanted to add some kind of embellie later.  I die cut different sizes of butterflies on my Silhouette.  I also punched some with my Martha Stewart punches.  I embossed them with various Cuttlebug and Sizzix embossing folders. Then I misted them with Glitter Mist.  I added to the wreath with hot glue.  Lastly, I added a safety pin with some sequins and some charms on it to the piece of pink fabric.  TFL!

Hello-Chevron rolled rose card

The paper line for this card was just so fun!  I just love me my paper stacks!  This one is by DCWV.  I got it at Michaels and it is called “The Create Collection”.  It has printed vellum and stickers and the paper is fabulous!  And you can’t go wrong with the Fontopia Cricut cartridge.  It practically did all the work for me . 
The card and the card front are the Fontopia cart.  The rolled rose was cut on my Silhouette Cameo.  I free handed the leaves.  And I used Cat’s Eye ink around the edges.  The letters are stickers by EK Success.

Wise Men Still Seek Him

These are some glass blocks I did for Christmas gifts.  I did them for dear friends that are really more like family.  I don’t get to see them very often because life is so busy, but when I do, my heart sings.
I got the glass blocks from Michaels.  The designs were cut on my Silhouette Cameo with designs purchased from the Silhouette store.  I put in indoor Christmas lights.  I just love how they look when they are lit up.  TFL!

Beautiful Butterflly

Hi All!  All the cuts on this are from my Cameo Silhouette.  I just love my Cameo!  The butterfly is cutout of some fabulous and delicate pearlescent paper.  And it just cut out so beautifully on the Cameo!  The purple dots are “skittles”…if you know what I’m talking about…lol.  I also added some blue baker’s twine at the top.  TFL!

Floral Fun

This card was so fun to make.  I primarily used my Silhouette Cameo to make it.  The flower in the middle and the label shapes behind it are from the Silhouette Online store.  I added gold micro-beads and Recollections dots to the middle and wrapped some twine into a bow around the middle of the flower.  Most of the paper is from the DCWV Coral Couture stack.  The small orange and peach flowers are also the Recollections brand.  I inked the edges and used glitter pen here and there.  TFL!
