In the Mirror Card

Hello to everyone from a windy but bright and sunny UK. I think this is the lull before the storm as the very cold weather is forcast to be coming back with a vengeance. 

The shape of this card is in the Art Deco style with the fold at the top and the paper pieced figure is using the mirror to apply her lipstick. I used silver mirri card for mirror but it looks more gold in the photo for some reason.
The template can be found here - as always thanks for looking.

Layered Scalloped Card

This is a card I've made for the Cameo Spotlight Challenge no 7 which is to use the colours above. Really struggled to come up with something but here's my effort which is a tent style card.  The card and layers were cut on my Cameo and embossed using one of my Cuttlebug folders.

Halloween Project

This is a table decoration I've done for the Cameo Spotlight Challenge No 6 which is a Halloween theme. There are 3 layers and I put a battery tealight in the middle but it doesn't show up too well in the photo. I used some free vector images from here and made them in to cut files for my Cameo. The backgroud is a free vector image too but I'm not too sure about copyright so to be on the safe side I guess I had better not share this file. Hope you like it though. 

Flower Outline Card

This is a card I have done for the Cameo Spotlight Challenge No 5 which is to use the colours Rich Red, Deep Orange and Harvest Gold.

 I have to say these aren't colours I would normally use but the card is certainly quite eye-catching !! I made the flower design myself and quite like it so will probably try and incorporate in another card.

Cameo Spotlight challenge - Swimmer Aperture Card

This is the card I've made for the first Cameo Spotlight Challenge. The theme is Summer so I think this fits the bill. I found the template for the swimmer in a craft magazine and I scanned it in to Photoshop so I could save it as a jpeg then autotraced it in Studio. I also did the waves in Studio just by drawing rectangles the width of my card base but with varying depths then adding extra points to the tops using the edit points tool making sure that  'make curve' was selected.Then it was just a question of moving the handles round to make the wave shapes. The sun and sentiment are dxf files I made in Illustrator. All I had to do then was make a frame to form the card base and weld the various parts together to make the aperture. The backing was something I had in my stash.
