Merry Christmas Flourish Card


I cut out this pretty holly flourish with a file I bought at the Silhouette store using my Silhouette Cameo.  I cut out the background red and green layers with my paper trimmer.  It doesn't show up in the photo, but I added red glitter to the little red circles in the center.  This is for the Caring Hearts card drive for the folks who will be spending Christmas in a nursing home.

File folder card


 
Took a break from working in the yard to make a card for the children's charity.  While looking through my cut file library, I found this file folder card cut file that I bought from the Silhouette store a long time ago and never used.  I cut out the card base, notebook paper and Hello saying with my Cameo then added a circle with polka dots cut out with a Nestabilities die and some Prima flowers with die cut yellow buttons.  This is for the girls at the Cards for Hospitalized Kids charity.
