Baby Shower Card

Just a quick post to show you guys the card for my sister in law's shower.  I really enjoyed designing it.  I used my Silhouette Cameo to cut the card.  I found the card template on the Silhouette store.  Here is the front:


I used a couple different Close to My Heart stamp sets on the front.  I used Zoology stamp set for the giraffe image.  The shapes are cut with the Cricut Art Philosophy Cartridge to cut out the shapes on the front.  Then I used liquid glass on top of the image to make it look like it was an epoxy sticker.

Here is the inside of the card:


I used the print and cut option with the Silhouette Cameo.  It was the first time that I tried this feature and I LOVED it!!  So cool!

That's all for today............. (oh, did you see my nails??  They are Jamberry's.  Love them!!)

Where has the time gone?




I have been MIA again!!! I have got to make it a regular habit to post!!!!  I have been super busy.  The summer is half way over and I feel like we haven't even had one yet.  I am either running with the kids or we are busy doing things around the house.

One of the goals that I had for the summer is to clean and organize my craft studio.  I am almost finished.  I have discovered that I do not need to buy any more crafting supplies for quite some time.  I always buy on clearance or at a good deal.  Even with that I do not need ANYTHING.  I will have to remind myself of this when the new CTMH books comes out.  Consultants are able to see the book starting today.  I am super excited!  I do have a little stash put away so there may be some have to have items!!

When I started cleaning out my studio I discovered a layout that I had not put together.  It was from our team meeting.  While I was at the meeting I didn't take the time to put it together and brought it home to do.  I left the meeting not feeling well and discovered two days later that I had strep throat.  (No wonder I didn't feel well.)  Anywho, I didn't do the layout and completely forgot about it until I discovered it.  I sat down to rest from all the cleaning and put it together.  Here it is:


I will TRY to be better at posting!!!!  For now I have to call it a night.  My kids have yet to realize that it's summer break and still wake up at 6:30-7!  Night all and see you soon!
