Character Themed Easter Baskets

It seems as if all of the spring holidays are over and I'm just getting a chance to post again.  Between making projects for Easter, Mother's day, Father's Day, birthdays, weddings and graduations (and let's not forget my full-time job), there aren't enough hours in a day for me.  The crazy thing is that I just love it.   Found the time to share this video of some of my Easter projects.  The Cameo Silhouette cutter is just amazing to me.  All of the characters and boxes were made using the print and cut features using the Cameo Silhouette software (designer edition).  


Thanks for watching.

So, it's a new year and I have been busy, busy, busy.  I'm not one to make New Year's resolutions.  However, I have made a promise to myself to post more of my projects.  I always intend to take pictures and post videos during the "process" of designing and making a project.  It just never seems to happen that way.  Before I know it, the project is made and given to and/or shipped out to recipients.  And the only memory is in my head.    Well, we'll see how my new commitment to "myself" goes. 

Lately, I've been obsessed with making party decorations with my "not so new" Cameo Silhouette cutter (I just Luv Luv Luv it).  I've had it for all of 5 months.  Jill Torres with cricflix has great youtube tutorials with many details on creating party decorations using the Cameo Silhouette.   Thanks to her, I have a renewed passion for Disney's Mickey and Minnie.  I've watched tons of tutorials and finally took the plunge to try creating these table centerpieces.  So,  here's my version of the popular Disney cartoon Doc McStuffin characters. 

Main character "Dottie" along with "Lambie".  Dottie is 18" tall and Lambie (version #3. See video) is 11 inches tall. They are "double sided" (same picture on both sides) and prevents having a plain white back side.  The most amazing part for me was that they both were created using my regular Lexmark Prospect pro inject printer. 

 

 It was so rewarding to have this project turn out so good. Now, if I can only take some good pictures of the next few characters I can't wait to make. Wish me luck!
