Christmas Bits and Bobs

 
Well I've been using the silhouette cameo again I downloaded this cute reindeer from the store its the perfect size to put a little chocolate in. I have made them for hanging on the Christmas tree for hidden treats
 


I punched a hole on either side and threaded butchers twine through for the hanging. For his little eyes I used flat back pearls and a lovely red rhinestone for his nose and the holly.

 
I have also made these gift tag labels using the print and cut feature on the silhouette and again used butchers twine. They were very quick and easy to make.

La Pashe

 
I love the La Pashe CD Roms they are great, I have made a birthday card for a friend who is turning 50 and he loves fishing.


 

The CDs provide great co coordinating papers, the main card background is from my stash. I made the rosette with the silhouette cameo. It was a quick make and my friend loved it.
 

 La Pashe Christmas Cards

 

For these I used 8 x 8 embossed cards and used my Craft Dragon for the hot foiled sentiment. The Holly took some time to cut out but it was worth the effort.
 
 
 
I used a quickie glue pen a gave the leaves some glitter and used glossy accent on the berries.
 
 
These are some other images on the CD I love the poinsettia decoupage.

Christmas Snowflakes Using the Silhouette Cameo

 
I have really put my cameo to work this year with these fab snowflakes the snowflake was purchased from the silhouette store.
 
 
 
In my picture you can see how I placed the snowflake into the square to form my topper.
 
 
 
I cut lots out and ended up with lots of spare snowflakes so I decided to use these as well as you can see in my pictures
 
 
 For the sentiment I use my craft dragon to hot foil the merry Christmas. I also used crafters companion spray and sparkle on my coloured paper which has added a great sparkle.
 
Hope you like them.
