silhouette element

I learned how to create this silhouette element on Sunday from my Kerri Bradford class. Oh the possibilities with attaching words to shapes... I will have to practice more to commit the steps to memory. You do some welds and some compound paths to create. I put this in my happy book with journaling about my birthday. Errand day today then dinner with a bunch of my co-workers that I haven't seen since school got out. Oh and I need to make a baby card. My co-worker scheduled for a section on the 23rd decided to come a little early :-) So happy for her and her family after she miscarried at 5 months last year.

I'm back....

 I was away since Monday. I went to a summer leadership conference. I learned a lot and had tons of laughs at the evening social gatherings. Here are pictures of a layout I did on Sunday. I worked on my cameo class so practiced all the good stuff I learned to make these 3 layered titles. The photo templates are from Kerri Bradford done in photoshop.

last flower cards

My crafting ADHD is getting the best of me... I went from multiples of flower cards to Friday night working for hours on some picture collages in photoshop elements to yesterday working for several hours on my online class I purchased by Kerri Bradford to REALLY learn  how to use all the creative features of the silhouette Cameo.... I wonder what kind of trouble I will get into today after church. It will have to be a quiet something because my daughter works tonight and will be sleeping all day.

rubbernecker stamps

I fell in love with rubbernecker stamps at ckc. I bought this set called create a garden set 2. I have been making cards with it for 3 days. I'll post a couple a day in the next few days. I used memento inks for the flowers and stems. I colored the pots with my copics. I added stickles and on some glossy accents. I have purposely left the outside with no sentiment on all but one. I feel it gives me more options when I pull it from my card box. They can be thank you cards, b-day and even a sympathy.

New Nestabilities set

I had to try out my new set so I made these three cards.

Thank you's

I made 8 of these to send out thank you notes for the B-day gifts I received.
