Summer Strawberries
Hello Everyone! Cameo Spotlight is a new blog challenging Silhouette Cameo owners to some fun new projects. The current challenge is to focus on summertime. My sister is a strawberry fanatic and her birthday is this month. This is the card and gift box I came up with to mail to her. The image is a strawberry card from the Silhouette on-line store. Doesn't it just say summertime? The card layers are: white base, black seed layer, and the top polka dot layer with seed holes cut out to expose the black layer below. I used black stickles in those holes for a little bit of glossy shine. Oh so pretty! Inside, I chose to use a rhinestone file and switched out the blade for a sketch pen using the Chomas Creations pen holder (love that thing!). I used a glitter pen, not sure the camera picked it up very well. The sentiment is from Papertrey Inc Sweet as Can Be stamp set.
What says summertime better than a pint of strawberries? The files I used for the box and the berries are, again, from the Silhouette on-line store. The largest berry is really the gift box. My sister's gift is nestled inside. The smaller berries are the same file that I reduced to 45%.
I had a blast making this and hope you get inspired to try something like this too. Thanks for stopping by.
