HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY to ALL
well ...here we go ...the cards

this card is using my new Cameo ...
and from my SIL  Barb...who gives you the pattern for the hearts the arrow
in the card above I used the paper pattern ..laid it on white card stock and this is what I got....
the hugs and kisses is from a Silhouette pattern I bought.

Now in this card I used the heart part of the cutout ...
removed a few of the lines
just to give it a bit of different look...

 
now this card is from a Silhouette pattern I bought the top is the outside of the card
below is the inside
 
the little robot was also a pattern I purchased from Silhouette..
I am so glad my SIL Barb ...kept saying you will have fun with this machine ...
yes I have a lot of  learning ...I must do ..but there is so much help out there for the Silhouette Machine ..
and I have two very talented SIL Barb and Nina ...that help ..share ..and make some awesome cards.
Make sure stop by their blogs.
 
Now this next card ...started out ...by my chatting to Barb about things to do
with the grand girls ..for their mom...she said get them to make a dinner for their mom...
I took it one step farther ...so over a couple of weeks I got them to prep/cook...and got them to also write down the recipes
and then make the meal ...I took pictures ...(but we did not tell Mom...)
Here is what the girls gave their Mom for
Valentine's Day
 
this is closed
 
starting to open
 
open all the way
I know the recipe cards are bigger then the little book ...
but when I started this projected I was not sure how I was going to put it together..
then a friend put an idea into my head ...
But I just could not change the recipe cards ..the girls had written themselves ..
so I used picture corners in and now mom and the girls can remove the recipe cards and create the meal ...
(the pictures were fun ...just had to make sure I cut them right for the folding part)
(also wish I got better pictures)
well have the best day ever
HUGS
to ALL
