Big Love, Big Expressions!!

Hey crafty friends, its inspiration time over at The Cutting Cafe and I am super excited to share with you my projects!!  We are playing with the Big Expressions cutting file and it comes with four different sentiments; I was undecided on which ONE to focus on so I used three of the sentiments to create three unique cards.

This cards were so much fun to make,  I used three different techniques to achieve each design.

Here I took the "big expression - HUG" and colored it in the Silhouette Studio, I added the words above and below the HUG to create a greeting of sorts.  The adorable little penguin was too cute not to add in some way so the one on top right is adhered straight to paper;
the one on the left has two layers AND he swivels!!
Yup, I put him on an action wobble and he is super cute when flicked!!

Here I used the "Big expression - SWEET" to create a shaker card!!  I've been really
into shaker cards lately and here is no exception!!
I also played with blending ink colors here.....not too bad, not too bad!  heehee

And last but certainly not least here's the "Big expression - OMG"; this one was so much fun mapping out its layout.  I fussy cut every single one of those balloons after I colored them with my Copic markers.  That cute little bear is one of my most favor images to color and he's super cuddly!

Thank you for stopping by my blog today, I hope you've been inspired to create!

Hey my crafty friends!!  Today I'd like to share with you my design team post for The Cutting Cafe - December 21st post!!  This week was a free week....Christmas themed; which was perfect for the holiday season and opportunity to fill that "last minute" Christmas gift giving list! Do you know the farmer who had a dog??  What was his name??  BINGO!!  Oh, yes!! LOL!! Bingo was a favorite game of my family's when we were growing up; the song and the board game!  Well guess who has a Christmas BINGO game in their shop??   The Cutting Cafe does!!  Yes, yes and I just had to create one.  I plan to present the game at Christmas, pull it out for the family to play and give a gift to the winner(s)...I bought three gifts - the fourth gift will be the BINGO game set! This pdf file was super easy to print and cut for assemble.  I cut a 12x12 sheet of 3/4" circles on my cameo in green and red for the chips.  A box with clear top that I normally use to hold car
