Home

Morning one and all.  Here we are another weekend at hand.  I have offically dedicated 2 weeks to the Cameo Silhouette.  I am by no means finished the learning process, but I have a pretty good handle on it and am feeling pretty comfortable with it.  The last thing I wanted to do was done yesterday and that was to design from scratch my own embellishment with the tools in the upgrade designers studio.  I decided on a birdhouse.  It took me a little while to get the hang of it, but I learned a lot and have a little birdhouse to use on my projects to boot, lol.  The background paper is from DCWV "typeset stack".  The home block was handwritten with the "white picket fence" and then airbrushed with "Current" Copic marker.  After I had the design fixed I treated it as a cut and print, so I printed it out and then let the Silhouette cut. So now it is back to my normal grind, I am behind on my Christmas cards, lol.  Hope you have a fab weekend and I will see you bright and early Monday for the Bitten By the Bug 2 Challenge, hugs

Beautiful card Sandi .... where did you find all the information on the cameo or did you just dig around and figure it out on your own? There's a great FB page All Things Silhouette - you could be their queen! Great job, friend. hugs, eileen

This is awesome.... That learning curve fell victim to your tenacious artful endeavors.

Beautifully done Sandi. Love the texture on the bird house. You really have a handle on the Silhouette. I know who I'll be coming to should I decide to get one!
