Mushrooms!

Afternoon all!

Well what a week it's been! I'm inundated with orders at the moment i'm so super busy! And i've managed to pick up the dreaded flu virus going about so *sniff sniff* lol! But it's given me chance to catch up on some orders and create and ultimately play with my new toy!

Today's Creation I adore, it was a birthday for a mom order! which I adore making this sort of card because i get to use as much PINK and flowers and glitz as i like!

I've used a beautiful stamp from CC designs which i've had for a while but i've been wanting the matching mushroom sentiment and finally got my hands on it! so it went perfectly with today's card!

I've been playing with the no lines technique once again with my main girl! I love how these look without the black stamping lines (or any colour for that matter!)

I've been playing with my Cameo again!! hehe!

I'd like to enter my card to the following challenges:

~~Delicious Doodles – No. 54 - Gems and Bling~~

~~Papertake Weekly - Make It Sparkle~~

~~Crafty Ribbons - #62 Anything goes with ribbon~~

~~Creative Craft Challenges - #19 Use Ribbon (Week 1)~~

Every Crafter Needs A Silhouette Cameo!!!

Morning all!!

I'm here this morning to share something NEW! Well... new to me!! haha!!
I've been wanting to take my crafting in different directions for yonks and being a cricut/slice user i've not been able to get what i want done, so with me being on That Craft Place DT I was talking to some of the girls over on our facebook page and they were all like ''you need a cameo'', ''they're brill'', ''you won't regret it''!
So after errrr a quick decision whilst my hubby was out! (yes i truly thought i was gonna get killed!) i umm'ed over having one and it didn't take long to make my mind up (even though i didn't really know what the machine did at the time i thought i'd live by what my Instagram friend Debbie taught me 'YOLO' (you only live once) haha! And with such a wonderful DT boss (yep that's yoooo Lisa!!!) haha! It was ordered on wed! and she told me it'd be here Friday!
For those who don't know or haven't seen one this is the Cameo...

oooo sooo pretty!!!
Hubb's came back and surprisingly he was OK about it so longs as i paid for it!! haha!! typical man!!eh!!

So i did literally stalk the parcel people yesterday i got so excited when there was a knock at the door at 10am i practically threw myself down the stairs to find it wasn't it haha was another order! BUT! it came!!!!
I'm absolutely OVER THE MOON with it! there's so much that the Cameo can do i'm so excited about trying everything out!!! so much so i didn't even wanna go to work last night but i did haha!(need to pay for it haha!!)

I tell ya it wasn't in the box more than 2 minutes after it came!! haha!! i love how light it is too! much lighter than the cricut! So i had already downloaded the silhouette studio to have a play with so i had ago at my first shape...

not bad for a first attempt! followed by a octagon card, weird spiky thing (don't ask) and a filigree heart! hehe! i can see this being my favorite thing in my craft room very easily! I have soooo many ideas to create!

So today i'm back from work straight up in the craftroom and decided i wanted to make it a lil more me...

How???

Why add pink of course!!!!
I've mastered the cutting so the world of Cameo is my oyster!!
I reccomend this machine to EVERY CRAFTER!! There is endless posibilities and wow it's just fab They're available to buy here at That Craft Place for £269 (and don't gasp trust me totally worth every penny!!!) and if ya do get one mention i reccomended ya ;)
Keep an eye on my blog now they'll be lots of new things about!!! as i learn my Cameo (which i've nicknamed ''Camel'' and ''mousey'' cus it looks like a wedge of cheese haha and i couldn't pronounce Cameo properly so Camel kinda stuck!! lol

Thanks so much for stopping by my blog today!
I'd love if you'd leave a comment to let me know your thoughts! And I can pop along and visit you too!! xoxo
