Bee Mine Tag

Hi Crafters!!  I know that Valentine's Day is over, but I just purchased this CUTE little bee cut file from Paper Crafting World  and I wanted to give it a try.  And I found a challenge blog that I wanted to do and it was for a love tag so this was perfect!!  The blog is Cameo Creations for the challenge.   I attached the cute bee tag to a tube of gumballs.  This would have been perfect for a Valentine's Day treat.   I cut this on my Silhouette Cameo.  When I imported the cut file into Silhouette Designer Studio I made an offset of the whole design BEFORE pulling away the different layers.  This made the base of the tag.

 Here is a side view!
 Here is the front of the tag.
 Here is the back of the tag.  I stamped hearts in pink ink and hand wrote TO: and FROM:
 Here is a closer view of the tag.  I used Studio G pink glitter glue to make the dots around the scallop heart.

Elephant Valentine Box

Hi Crafters!!  HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!!!  I made a cut elephant Valentine box for one of my girls.  The box file was purchased from the Silhouette store and the elephant paper piecing file is from Little Scraps of Heaven Designs.  I filled the box with Reeses cups.

 This box was so easy to put together.  The Silhouette store boxes are the best and easiest to put together.  The sentiment is from My Creative Time Teeny Tag Greetings and was stamped with Stampin Up Melon Mambo ink.  Pattern paper is from Studio G.
 Isn't this elephant adorable?  So easy to put together.
I am entering this project into the following challenges:

Money Holder using Silhouette Cameo

Hi Crafters!  I wanted to share this cute little money holder I made for my daughters birthday.  She LOVES peace signs.  This project was so simple to put together.  I purchased this money holder file from the Silhouette store and cut it out using my Silhouette Cameo (which I LOVE LOVE LOVE)!!



I also used a label cut from the Silhouette store and just adjusted it to fit the front of the box.  I did an offset for the shadow and choose the print and cut feature for the sentiment and stitched lines.  (LOVE this feature). 

 Here is a view of the top with the tab.
 This is the back of the box.
I didn't have a peace sign cut file so I googled clip art peace signs and used the trace feature in Silhouette Studio (LOVE this feature as well).  Then I cut peace signs out of white cardstock and colored them with my Stampin Up markers to match the colors of the patterned paper. 

 
The peace sign patterned paper is from DCWV All Dolled Up paper stack!  I LOVE how this turned out!!  I truely LOVE LOVE LOVE my Silhouette Cameo!!!
