Christmas Card with Chomas Creations adjustable marker holder

I just love Kelly's blog Finding Time to Create!  She always has such neat projects putting the Silhouette Cameo to use.  This card is no exception as she has done it again! 
Using the Chomas Creations adjustable marker holder with a fine tip marker, look how small she wrote the sentiment on this card!  Here are more details on how the rest of Kelly's card was made... Christmas card
Thanks so much Kelly for letting me share this post!!  I just love this card, so clean and simple, yet stunning!

Snowflake birthday card with Chomas Creations adjustable marker holder

On 12-12-12 my niece turned 10!  This is the card I made for her!  I love turquoise and red as wintery colors.  I used the Chomas Creations adjustable marker holder with a white Signo Uniball gel pen to draw the snowflakes on the turquoise.  The happy birthday sentiment was cut with the Silhouette.  I added some Viva Decor Pearl Pen to the center of the snowflakes.

Spread Cheer card with Chomas Creations engraving tip


I just loved the Spread Cheer sentiment from the Silhouette Studio downloads that I wanted to make a card with it to!  Our family is known for it's loud singing hehe! 
Here is the Chomas Creations engraving tip in the Silhouette Cameo.  It is one piece and goes right into the machine.  All you do is tighten the blue screw!
I wanted to etch onto Core'dinations kraft core cardstock with the Chomas Creations engraving tip so I used my speed at 6, my thickness at 33, and I used the double cut option.  After I did the engraving I lightly sanded the image to clean it up (when I say lightly I mean really lightly, just brush a sanding block over the image gently, of course you can add more pressure if you want a very distressed look!).  Here is the finished card!

Engraved mirror with Chomas Creations engraving tip


When I saw this quote in the Silhouette Studio store I couldn't pass it up!  In our family because we can't sing well, we always sing loud hehe!
I've done some Chomas Creations engraving tip on the plastic mirrors before, but in case you missed it, here we go again! 
I've found these plastic mirrors at JoAnns by Darice.

I used the Chomas Creations engraving tip in the Silhouette Cameo with a thickness of 33, a speed of 6 and double cut to get this etched look.  These mirrors are easy to cut with a guillotine trimmer, so I cut it to 5x7 and added it to a frame.  Of course it is hard to get a good picture of a mirror (hard?  did I say hard?  it is near impossible!), but this turned out so neat!
