Silhouette Cameo

I still have so many pages to upload because my silhouette cameo is making it way easier to finish a page quickly. So I'll continue uploading two pages at a time until I've caught up. This post has two of my favorite pages I've ever made, partially because they both use my favorite colour combination, and partially because I just love how they turned out. The first page is another one from Florida, this time the picture is me feeding a baby kangaroo. 


I fell in love with the background cutout as soon as I saw it on the silhouette store, but when I put it over the background it was still missing something. So I put some watercolour streaking in red and yellow on the woodgrain paper and ended up loving the result. 


The title is "Kangaroo Kisses" and the journalling says "one of my biggest dreams was to be able to feed a giraffe and a kangaroo. Luckily, on my trip to Florida I got to do both!"



The second page is one I submitted a while ago for publishing. Unfortunately, I never heard back from anyone. I think I've waited long enough past the deadline, so I'll just go ahead and post it. This is another page where I pulled a ton of inspiration from Pinterest, i think I used a total of 4 or 5 different images in order to come up with this.

    1. It has definitely made my life SO much better haha. I debated for a long time about buying one since they're so expensive in Canada, but I'm so happy I gave in :)
