"HEY CHICKIE!" MY FIRST CAMEO CARD

Hi guys! Here's my first card using the Silhouette Cameo! I'm a newbie, and learning what the Cameo can do. For those of you who have asked, YES!! I'll still be using my Cricut!! I still love my Cricut and all my carts, and will continue to use them often! Thanks for watching!

  3. Oh Mary, This is so cute I love both your chickies--Your card as always came out just fine. Congrats on the cameo I have had mine for a couple of months -- I popped it out of the box right away and could not wait to use it. I still love all my cricut machines and alternate. It is just another way of being crafty.

    Happy crafting and happy Easter.

  7. Your Chicky card is adorable you did a great job!
    The colors are so pretty love how you used that stamp and added the crochet thread and button totally a "Slick Chick" look~~

    (I knew all along that you would still be using your Cricut it's just fun to have different toys I have a Slice but still use my Cricut)

  9. How fun to try new things! I enjoyed knowing that the cameo could trace and cut a digi... makes me want to explore the cameo as well. Do you still use your Imagine at all?

  15. So very cute and like me, I use both die cut machines for different reasons...not giving up my Cricut since I find it so much easier to use most of the time! Enjoy your new toy! Following you with Bloglovin'

  18. Dear Mary
    My heart sank when I read that you were using the cameo. I thought the Cricut card Queen was no more. I only got my Cricut about 8 months ago. I love all your cards and videos. I thought that I was resigned to watch only the old videos until you said you were only going to use the cameo once in a while. I think your card is simply adorable. I must remember to use twine or crosstitch thread on my cards it really does add something to them.

  21. I am so happy to hear that you will be doing Cricut cuts still. I admit I was a bit worried when I saw that you had gotten the Sillouette.

    You have really inspired me to use cricut cuts that I may have otherwise overlooked. I love your cards.

    I love how your video shows both the Sillouette and Cricut options with this card.

  22. I am happy that you are going to be using the silhouette some too. I got one for christmas and have watched tons of youtube videos. I started last summer so I was able to figure it out a little better by the time I got it. There are some people who give away some really cute cut files that are free. (they also sell them.) I still use my cricut also but the silhouette is so much better at cutting intricate cut, and I love the print and cut feature. I am looking foreword to seeing what you do with it. Diana

  24. Congrats on the cameo. I think I got mine shortly after this was posted, wow impressed that your first card was a print and cut I still haven't tried that yet:) I still love all my cricut machines and alternate back and forth too. It is just another way of being crafty.
