April challenge

We have uploaded the card challenge for April on the silhouette plus forum and this month Beth and I thought it would be good to reinforce the learning we all did back in January when Jody posted a challenge to get to know your silhouette software a little better and make elements out of just text..so this month that will be the main elements for the cards...here is my first example


The rosette type thingy was made from the letter j in Arial true type font and i circled it in the silhouoette software and came up with this delightful image...the papers I used for this card came from the kind people at www.sizzix.co.uk/jubilee as a free download..there was 10 papers altogether and i dont know how long they will be available so if you want them then try downloading them now..they are mainly for the jubilee but as you can see they are very usable for other projects. The rosette was done in sketch on my silhouette and then offset and cut.
My second example



I cant remember which font i used to make the frame out of Hs but the paper was some from a pack i bought in hobby craft but i cant remember whos it was soz..the elements were some free with a cardmaking magazine and i thought they worked well with this design..

thank you for looking
love debby xx
