Smile

Hello 
A whole week has just whizzed by once again ... It's a little brighter here in the UK but still cold

Not much to share except a card I made a few weeks ago using a little Memory Box frame die, my city scape die from Clearly Besotted and the Smile die from PTI


Clearly Besotted have just released their March goods and I just know if I take a look I'll buy more stuff


I've been busy keeping up with DT work and projects for the Thursday Club ... I'm preparing 25 exploding boxes for Mother's day for them and my Cameo decided to go wrong half way through cutting out yesterday so I've still a lot of work to do by hand ... I've had a few problems with the Cameo lately which is so frustrating ... I'm debating on buying a new cutting machine ... any advice from you lovely people would be welcome

I hope you have a great day and enjoying the upcoming weekend

Till soon be safe

WOW, what a beautiful clean card..love, love the white and then the pops of color...another stunner!! All I can say is I LOVE my Cricut Explore, it is totally connected to the internet, and it just keeps getting better and better with the updates, and I subscribe for the designs, of course there is a new one out called Cricut Air, same thing for the most part, just has a built in blue tooth. Weather here is COLD, but next week we are to warm up!!

Wonderful card Ros! I love how you always manage to create such dimension while still maintaining the crisp clean CAS appearance! Love that glittery balloon, such a great bit! hugs :)

Beautiful card Ros!!
Regarding cutting machine, I have had a Cricut Expression2 for over a year now and knock on wood, so far so good. The only problem with buying a new type of machine is that you have to buy new cutting files or in Cricut case cartridges which I not cheap at all... So if they still sell Cameo, I'd say just replace it with a new one.... Have a great weekend. :)

What a pretty card - love the layers and that SMILE die... I wonder how I can continue to live without it?? As for new releases: I can't look at anything just now because two weeks from now I'll be at that huge craft convention again... it would be silly to shop somewhere else now!

What a gorgeous, little, dimensional scene, and I adore that glittery balloon!

Now that is fantastic cityscape! So sorry to hear about your Silhouette giving you problems. My one thought is to talk to someone in customer service. I have had a Silhouette for eight years now and they are always very helpful with any problems I've had.

You are so creative, Ros! Love how you put everything together & your choice of colors--fabulous card!

Your scene looks filled with Spring! Hope your real Spring is around the corner and I am so sorry to hear about your Cameo woes. I don't have an electronic cutter, so I can't offer any advice :(
Stay warm Ros!

Hugs~

Stella said...

This is a gorgeous card; and a fab way to use your dies. Lovely Ros. I do not have a cutting machine (wish I had...) which means I can't answer your question.
XXXXX

That combo of dies really makes a fun scene. Like your butterfly on the last card, the balloon adds a little whimsy to this one. Super fun design Ros.

Sylvia said...

Beautiful card, Ros, I love the background. Sorry about the Cameo, I know it is a pain, but cutting by hand is the most reliable. Have them fix your cameo!
