Meow are you? ^_^

Hi everyone ♥

Today I'm sharing a slider card over at Joy's Life Design Team blog. I had always wanted to make one, but was a little confused on what to cut, sizes, etc... but the Silhouette Cameo made it soo easy!! I think I've said this before, but the hardest part was choosing the pattern paper LOL 

The sentiment is from Joy's brand new stamp set, Punny Animals. This entire stamp set is adorable. Take a look at the entire stamp set here

The following pictures will show the girl's progress on the "slider" cut. The card base and the slider piece are from the Silhouette Store. 

Here, she made it to the right side :-)   All of the pattern paper is from Echo Park Paper except the girl's dress and sentiment mat. I used My Mind's Eye pattern paper for her dress and the sentiment mat. 

I used foam tape to add all the dimension. 

This week the design team has been working on animal themed projects. Stop by the blog to for some inspiration and to say hi! :) 

Have a fun, crafty day!

Birthday Money Holder and Banner

Hello, hello ♥

Today I'm sharing a money holder I made with the Silhouette Cameo and a banner I made with the Cricut. I think the hardest part was deciding what paper to use LOL 

I didn't want to have too much going on so I kept it clean and simple. The sentiment is actually made up from two stamps. "feliz cumpleanos" is from My Creative Time's Wow So Many Candles stamp set and "Mama" is from Pink By Design's Mi Familia stamp set.  
The sentiment mat and it's layer are from My Creative Time's Stitched Curly Label Die and the Curly Label Die. 

The inside sentiment is from Pink By Design's Mi Familia stamp set. The sentiment mat and its layer is from My Creative Time's Vintage Stitched Label Dies
The pattern paper is from Echo Park. 
Just in case you're interested in this money holder cut, you can find it here

I still ♥ my Cricut & Gypsy. The reason I mention Gypsy is because I can set everything up in layers and different mats and be ready to whip up a banner in no time! The font and banner shape are from the Birthday Bash Cricut cartridge. The tulle is from Michael's. 


Thank you for stopping by! 
Have a fun, crafty day!

Happy blah blah birthday!

TGIF! :) 
I had fun making this card because it was the first time I cut something with the Silhouette Cameo that wasn't from the Silhouette Store.  Both Snoopy and Woodstock are images that I found on Google. For those who don't know, you just save the image, open it on the Silhouette Software, trace, and cut... it really is THAT easy! I couldn't believe it either! 

Oh! Almost forgot, the balloons are from George and Basic Shapes Cricut cartridge. Still ♥ my Cricut. 
The twine on the left and middle balloons is from The Twinery. The twine on the right balloon is from Trendy Twine. The bling is from Zva Creative

I added some blending chalk on Snoopy & Woodstock's cheeks. The sentiment was created on Microsoft Word and was just printed out. The yellow pattern mat paper is from DCWV Celebrations cartridge.

Project Life card holder

Hello everyone! Over at Joy's Life Design Team blog we are showcasing Home Decor projects. I decided to make a magazine holder for my project life cards to not only decorate my scrap area, but to help me organize. I can't say this enough... the silhouette cameo is incredibly easy to use and Joy's Life stamps compliment most cuts!

The sentiment on this holder is from the Tag You're It One stamp set.


This sentiment is from the Tag You're It Two stamp set.


I'm not sure of the item number, but it's called 3x4 life card magazine holder from Lori Whitlock. 

All of the pattern paper is from Echo Park Paper.  



Thank you so much for stopping by!

Have a fun, crafty day!

Wonderful Woman Flower Pot card

Hi everyone!
 I've been having so much fun playing with the Silhouette Cameo! I saw this flower pot card kit on the Sil Store and decided to give it a try. It was unbelievably easy to assemble and Joy's stamp just finished it off. 
 The sentiment "Wonderful Woman" is from Joy's My Hero stamp set. 
This is how it looks when you slip it out of the pot. 

Don't forget to grab yourself one of the new stamp sets from Joy's Life HERE - or maybe all three! :) 

Have a fun, crafty day!

Hope your day is amazing

Hello everyone! I hope all of you are doing great! 
Today I'm sharing another CAS card using washi tape over at Joy's Life Design Team blog.
The sentiment is from Joy's Life, My Hero stamp set.
 Joy's stamps make it so easy to make cards very quickly. I only used washi tape and Joy's stamps. ♥ 
 For this card, I opted out on cutting the washi with scissors. Instead, I ripped it so it could give it a different look. 

Have a fun, crafty day!
