These are the treats I'll be taking into work...(I made 60 of them)

Supplies:
Lifes a Party cart- treasure chest @ 6.11w x 6.88h
Silhouette -(7 labels C01087_20509 and "Luck" phrase C01018_17986) sized 2"w x 1.53"h
I LOVE MY SILHOUETTE!!! I love the fact that I can print/cut a sentiment otherwise I would of just put a shamrock on top. Which would of been OK, but I like sentiments!!

Sentiment done on the silhouette- SO QUICK and EASY!! I used printer paper, since I wanted it to curve.

LOVE this card!!! This card is for my niece. I really put on my thinking cap and got creative, I used several different carts and ALL my machines..LOL  I won't tell you how old she is...its kind of obvious..LOL
Supplies:
 Banner is from the silhouette cameo @ 3.75"w
Girl is from the Imagine "Best Friends" @ 3.25"(my niece actually looks like that!!)
name is from "Lyrical letters" @ .75"
hand is from "A Childs Year" @ 2.75"
#5 is from "cursive 101" @ 1.30"
Cuttlebug "swiss Dots" embossing folder
4 pink rhinestones
and embroidery thread pink

The BEST part is the HB banner made with the silhouette cameo!!!! None of my PC machines would have been able to do this.... it was so easy and QUICK on the silhouette!!! Yes, the tiny little triangles were cut out and I glued them to the thread and then draped the thread across the card. COOL HUH??
 See, ALL my machines work very well together. Yeah, I know it was a lot of money to spend on a machine just to print/cut text but its worth it to me...Now my cards will be extra special cause I can add text/sentiments...The silhouette is for small text/sentiments only and I will ALWAYS use my PC carts for my die cutting. I am a CRIC AHOLIC!!!!! ROTFLOL!!!!

PS...I helpful tip..on the imagine I LOVE the border(shadow) feature but on this girl tho I didn't like the color it gave.  I changed the border color to match the card base...it blends in with the rest of the card and you hardly notice it.. NEAT HUH?? I gotta start remembering to do that for now on.

SILHOUETTE CAMEO....It's HERE

this is what I wanted to print(then cut)

this what printed (I don't know what happened on the oval)

and this is what cut!! Isn't that the NEATEST THING!!!!

For a newbie, I'm VERY HAPPY!! can't wait to play some more....

Here's the treats I'll be taking into work on Valentines, I've got 20 of them done....about 20 more to go..LOL
I used the Spring Holiday Cards cart for the container cut @ 2.75" (I used my gypsy to hide the slash marks on the front). The cupid is from the Sweethearts cart cut @ 2.50" and the sentiment is from the Imagine cart Better Together cut @ 2". I'll fill them with the candy hearts. I put the cupid on one side and the sentiment on the other.

Valentines

Geez! I had to make myself craft....I'm just not in the mood.  Here's my Valentine cards(I made 12).
I used the "swiss dots" to emboss, the heart shaped earth is from the imagine cart "better together" and its pop dotted with SU dimensional and cut at 3". The quote was done on the computer and cut out by hand (GASP! I know, thats why I want the Silhouette). The heart on the inside was also done on the computer and trimmed with red glitter glue and again cut by hand (eekk GADS!! all this cutting is driving me crazy). See, thats why I ordered the Silhouette.  So it'll PRINT AND CUT my sentiments, I LOVE ALL MY PC PRODUCTS TOO MUCH to neglect them. We will ALL CRAFT in harmony and I'll be a HAPPY CRAFTER!!!!  LOL
