Snowy Scene Again

Once again, the snowy scene from Bird's Card cutting file. On a Kraft card stock, with a blue dotted card stock.

The yellow tissue paper makes the windows shine, and the door is a piece of black card stock .

The sparkly puffy paint is giving the impression of snow.

The sentiment is stamped in the lightest blue.

Santa Stuck in the Chimney!

Thank you Bird for this wonderful Silhouette Cameo cutting file... I am having so much fun with this machine AND your cutting files!

A stuck Santa Claus, with a very simple to use cutting file. I changed it a little, first resizing it, since Bird's file is making a 4 Bar card and I wanted an A2.

I then ungrouped the different part of the file and regrouped them by color. (Black, red and white). This way, I just put the three different colored card stocks and cut all of it in one move.

I also added some sparkly puff paint on the snow and the white hemming of Santa pant.

Bird also gives a brick background cutting file that allow you to cut a simile embossing folder, so you can run your red card stock in it and emboss bricks on the chimney.

If you then put a little brown ink on it, it will look a little dirty.

Snowy Scene In a Window

I love so much this Silhouette Cameo cutting file from Bird (http://www.birdscards.com/snow-scene-card/)

that I had to use it again.

If you own a Silhouette Cameo and are  looking for cutting files, you should go visit Bird's blog. She has the most interesting cutting files collection and give them away generously.

I used my cuttlebug and some spellbinder nest die cuts to make the oval frame.

I like to add some yellow tissue paper behind the window, it looks like somebody is home.

I also embossed the white card stock with a snow flakes embossing folder.

Snow Scene from Bird

I kept the best for last, I really love how this one came out....

I used once again a snow scene cutting files from Birds, and added a dark navy blue background, I also stamped a few stars to make the sky sparkle.

Behind the windows of the house, I glued a little piece of yellow felt, it looks like somebody is home.

Love that one!

Thank You So Much

Thank You So Much

My oh my, those silhouette studio cutting files that Bird is creating are just amazing.

Here is the one she posted this morning, how beautiful is that???

The little slots for the ribbons are right on! Perfectly positioned and of a size that would fit the most common ribbons.

I admire the way she ties that most perfect bow in the center. 

She is definitively an artist.

Here is my take on it, no surprise there, Tiffany blue ribbon and Stampin'up Pool Party ink.

Deep Edge cards from Bird's Cards

 Pinterest and the web are full of resources when you begin using your Silhouette Cameo. 

How sweet it is when you fall on beautiful free cutting files, easy to download and use.

Bird's Card blog (http://www.birdscards.com/) has those "Deep edge" cutting files that allowed me to design a few easy and simple cards.

Thank you Bird for being so generous and for the beautiful inspiration we can find in your blog...

I added a "thank you" sentiment to this deep edge card (#5) and a Tiffany blue liner.

This one is the Deep Edge #1. I added a band of card stock. The sentiment was printed and cut using a  Spellbinder Nestabilities, label #10 die cut.

I put a white ribbon behind it.

The two following deep edge cards are the #3 cutting files and I just added a Happy Birthday" cut in silver card stock. The large clear ribbon, and the silver mesh one are actually holding the sentiment in place.
