Linen gift tags with Chomas Creations adjustable marker holder


Sometimes I am just lolly gagging around the internet and I run across something that amazes me that someone did with the Chomas Creations tools!  I asked Lauri Springer from the latest from lauri if I could share these awesome Valentine's gift tags with you!  She said YES!  So here they are!  She made the tags from scratch (WOW!!!) and then drew on them with the Chomas Creations adjustable marker holder and a no bleed Sharpie marker.  You can also find these tags (if there are any left they are so cute!) and some other amazing things Lauri has done in her etsy store my creative frenzy!  Stop by Lauri's blog the latest from lauri and leave her some love if you have time!

Robot birthday card with Chomas Creations adjustable marker holder

Young boy birthday cards are a tough one for me!  Give me girly, flowery any day and I can make a quick card.  But a boy card?  Not so quick!
But what could be better for boy then robots and silver and black and dark blue?  Well nothing!
I found these Sharpie markers that are a fine point on one side and an ultra fine point on the other that fit in the Chomas Creations adjustable marker holder.  Sharpies work awesome on glossy surfaces like this silver glossy cardstock that I found at Target, 2 pieces for under $1!

The sentiment and robot were both Studio store downloads.

Letters from Santa with Chomas Creations adjustable holders

I'm sad to say that my house is getting to the sad age where the kids are starting to doubt Santa.  That just makes me so sad =(  I'm kicking it up a notch with some letters addressed to my kids from Santa.  Of course I couldn't use my own handwriting, and I want them to be handwritten, so bring out the Cameo! 
I used the Chomas Creations adjustable holders with gel pens to draw these letters from Santa.  But look close, notice anything missing in this picture??
If you noticed my arrows, you may also notice that I'm using NO MAT!  That is because you can add a 12 inch piece of cardstock right in your Silhouette machine without a mat and draw on it!  How awesome is that?  You do have to move your white roller over a notch (your roller is usually where I'm showing the #1, you need to move it to #2) so the paper will fit under the rollers.  You also want to use load media instead of load mat so that your writing starts where you see it on the screen in Studio.
I used the Lettering Delights thin font called Casual to write the letters to my kids.  I also loaded the envelopes straight into the Silhouette with no mat to draw their names on the front!

Don't they look like they are hand written letters!?  You can't get that from a printer!  And these are in metallic gel pens!
