Paper Playtime Challenge

OOPS!!!  Been a while since I've updated anything...boy Lots of stuff going on!!!  I was finally able to hire someone to put up railings down the front steps of my house!  YAY!!  I've wanted to do that for YEARS!!!  Found a new doctor that is helping me with my back, hip and leg pain! Have a ways to go, but I finally do have hope!!!  I had a small windfall recently and decided to get a Silhouette Cameo!  So far.....I LOVE IT!!  Doesn't rip paper, cuts intricate items so beautifully!  Wish that had been out before I spent so much $ on Cricut machines (Expression, E2 & Imagine) and all the cartridges!! The Imagine has been a disappointment in that it seems to lose its place and starts cutting out way off from the design.  Frustrating!!! I am still learning how to use the Silhouette software, but have gotten a few things printed, cut and on cards!  EXCITING!!  Also love browsing through the online store and have found so many neat things!  Haven't bought too much but have a LONG wish list!!! :-)
I saw the challenge for Paper Playtime and decided to try something with the Cameo for it!  I like how it turned out...hope you do, too!  I cut the layers at 2.25, put it together and popped up in the middle of the card.  Had some My Pink Stamper stamps and used that for the sentiment, stamped a butterfly and colored in with glitter gel pens and then loaded it up with buttons!  It was fun and she turned out sweet!  Here she is:
Love the eyelashes!!  Cut out like a dream!  


Another look... She makes me happy!!
God Bless!!
