It's Been A While.......

 I've been MIA lately.  Without going into the details, life has been a little nuts lately.  Summer, family, work, etc. etc.   I know that is not a excuse, but that is what has been happening. 

One of the fun things I got to do lately was work with this fun digital scrapbook kit called Party Pants from Peppermint Creative.    I really love the fun colors in this set.  The balloons, the cake, presents....just so much fun party stuff.

Here are a couple of hybrid crafts that I made with this kit and my Silhouette Cameo.  The first one is one of my favorite cards.  It is made with the balloons and the Celebration word art.
 
 
I made a card base 4 x 5 and enlarged the balloons to where they were "off" the sides of the card.  I also printed an extra copy and cut around some of the balloons and layered them to add dimension.  I used black twine and tied it around a few of the balloons.
 
Here is another card using the birthday cake.
 
 
One of my favorite things to do with my Cameo is Print and Cuts. 
For this print and cut, I cut out several extra pieces and adhered to the base of the card with pop dots
 to give dimension. 
 
And last but not least, is a cute little box that I made with the paper from the Party Pants kit.
 
 
Hope that these hybrid projects inspire you to take out your favorite digital kit and make something fun. 
 
Have a GREAT week!
