Pleased with this one

So pleased with this card.
I had some free time over the weekend and really wanted to get to grips with Silhouette Design studio , I had mastered the basics of using my machine, getting the files onto the mat and cutting them, but wanted to take it one step further and learn all the buttons and how to design with them.
I found this TUTORIAL on youTube so had to try it out .
Luckily I had the circles already on my PC
 Here is my finished card, So pleased with it and find I now understand what most of the buttons in Designer can do, and have loads of ideas in my head just need to find the time to try them out
Just noticed in the photo that there is a tiny cut piece on the top that I have forgotten to remove, So just did it now
I so love my Cameo
thanks for stopping by

30 Anniversary Card

This is for my Hubby for our 30 wedding Anniversary on the 6th of March
I went for soft pearly colours for this card
 It has been cut out using my new Silhouette Cameo machine that came to live out our house last week. I have named her Ellis-May 
Still learning the software so that I can create my own files soon.
So this beautiful card above came from a file By Rae Carr available from HERE
 The background layers were cut from a soft peach card, and the front layer was cut out of white pearlescent paper, this was then run through an embossing folder, I then added a few pearls to the centre of each flower.
You can see in the photo below of how it looks when stood up
This was my first proper project on the Cameo and I just love it, It cuts like a dream.
