Good Morning Everyone! Thanks for stopping by. Here's a few cards that I did with my Silhouette Cameo. The girl next door will be turning 5 at the end of the month. She is an avid reader and my husband made her a cross stitch bookmark. Keeping with the theme, I decided to do a crayon shaped card. The picture doesn't do it justice, it is just as cute as can be and was SO easy. It is an A2 sized card that I added a tag cut from a CC Designs die and some twine---
Here is the cross stitch my husband did. The picture was scanned and doesn't show it's true beauty. My husband does GORGEOUS work, in most cases you can't tell the front from the back---
This was my first attempt at creating a card with my Silhouette...before the mat and the blade went bad. Everything on it was done with the Silhouette---
Those of you that know me, know that I have a tough time with St. Patrick's Day cards but I actually had fun with these. Done with clip art and the print and cut feature on the Silhouette. I love this feature and it actually works, unlike my Bosskut Gazelle which I was never able to get it right---
A closer look. You can't really tell from the picture but the clip art image was printed twice, once on the background and the other was cut and popped to give dimension---
That's it for today. I hope you enjoyed your visit and that I have inspired you. I have a few more St. Patrick's Day cards to do, then on to Easter. Enjoy your day...hope to see you again soon!

Oh Kelly, these are absolutely amazing! My jaw just dropped at your husband's cross stitching - my dad used to cross stitch!! These are all ones to drool over but my heart is smiling huge at those crayons :)

wow Kelly, you just went to town with your Silhouette and these are each one a work of art, your husbands cross stitch is awesome, hugs
WA-OOW!!your husband is talented!! awesome needle work!! shows how cool and careful he must be
Three days late & a dollar short . . . I love them all but that crayon is great, especially with the bookmark - what a treasure! I like the piano and see how the Silhouette is really showcasing your personalized ideas but the dinos for the twins and the monster are the best. I love the subtle purple background, the purple pot and the purple bow, really sets the whole thing off and those lips!

You have become a pro with your Silhouette. Can't believe what all it can do! If these are your first cards on that machine, can't wait to see what else you will create. They are all great! And your husband's cross stitch is enviable. Beautiful work!
Hi Kelly...Wow you seem to have overcome your problems with the Silhouette and progressed to awesome cards. I got one for Christmas but have been really nervous to try anything yet. Love all your cards, can't seem to pick a fav!!!!! Your husband does wonderful cross stitch glad he enjoys it!
Dear Kelly,
your works are fantastic! They are brimming with inspiration, joy, luck, gaiety ... I feel it, when I look at your work.
Therefore I am very happy to be able to follow your blog at now. I'm very happy to see you again soon.
