Accordion Pumpkin and Letters by SVG Cuts

Life is always crazy this time of year!  I wish I could post more often but sometimes there is just not enough time in the day...  I did get a chance to cut out these letters to spell out FALL on my Silhouette a few weeks ago.  This is a great file by SVG Cuts that you can use for just about any season or for any occasion.  I plan on cutting out some additional words in the next few weeks so I will try to get those posted as well.

I also made this great accordion pumpkin!  When I was searching on the Silhoutte Online store for a file the pumpkins were REALLY small.  Luckily I ran across this version on Pinterest (I think the instructions are from Archivers).  I really wish they had a cut file available for this size of a pumpkin.  I am so lazy now!! :)

Christmas Side Step Card

This was such a fun card to make!  The sleigh and trees were cut with the Silhouette Cameo.  First I colored the trees with Viva Decor Paper Soft - Moss Green but it was too light.  I then went over the trees with Clearsnap Color Box Chalk Ink - Forest Moss and that gave the trees great dimension.  I tried skipping the first step and just use the chalk ink but it just came out a solid color, just kind of blah...  For the sky I also used Viva Decor Paper Soft - Cobalt Blue.  For the snow I used VersaMark with Ranger Sticky Powder and Dry Stickles - Star Dust.

Happy Birthday!

I needed to whip up a card for one of my team members at work for her birthday tomorrow.  Everyone at work really likes my cards but it is always so hard to have 20+ people sign an A2 size card.  I decided to make a 6x6 card and since I don't have to mail it, why not add some dimension!

Easel Card

I just love my new Silhouette Cameo!!!  What you can cut with this machine is limitless...  With making cards this makes cutting the bases and layers so quick and you know they are going to layer perfectly!

Here is a card I made using Bazzill paper and a Stampin Up stamp set. For the most part it was easy to put together just had to come up with a design for the top layer!

New Toy!! Silhouette Cameo

I finally broke down and purchased a Silhouette Cameo :)  I have only played with it a short amount of time but I just love everything I have tried to make with it.  Here is a card I made using some elements that I cut out with the Silhouette.  The background paper was colored using Viva Decor - Paper Soft- Rose, stamp set is from Stampin Up.
