Christmas Card

I am getting a head start on Christmas cards for our family.  I used Bazzill card stock and a lovely cut file from Bird's Cards. Cut out all the pieces with my Silhouette Cameo.  Assembled all the layers, then added a few gems in the centers of the snowflakes.

Back to school

It's been a very busy month, so not much time to paper craft.   I made this quick card using a image from a card kit that came with a paper crafting magazine.  Created the dot paper in gimp and cut out all the pieces with my Silhouette Cameo.

I have very few back to school images in my stash.  I thought this one would work since it has notebook paper and a pencil on the image.

I think you are out of this world

Working on some cards for the little boys at the Cards For Hospitalized Kids Charity.  While looking through my digi images today, I found this fun image from Bugaboo Stamps.  Colored the image in GIMP, imported it into Silhouette Studio DE, traced the image, created a offset, then created the card base.  Cut out the pieces with my Cameo.  I hope the boys will smile when they see this one.
