Ive been playing for christmas

This month for the sil forum card challenge part of the challenge is christmas but not any old christmas card but I cant tell more than that for now...but obviously making christmas cards for the inspiration cards left me in the christmas card stash making mood....and this is what I came up with..

The flowers came from Craft Artist platinum and Daisy trail...it is easy to get the files into the silhouette software to do print and cuts with them...firstly open craft artist,. then choose blank project...then I tend to choose A4....after that choose your digikit...and open it...choose the elements that you would like to take into your sil software and place on the work space...goto file at the top left hand corner and goto export you can then export the page as a jpeg and save to your computer..you then have to find the jpeg on your pc and can then load it into your sil software. Once it is loaded into the sil go to trace and open that then do a trace (as yu would for a print and cut) but instead of clicking onto trace click onto trace and detach...do this seperately for every element on yur page...you can then remove the white background from the files and the bits left behind on the sheet you no longer need...you can then make a print and cut file as normal for your elements (Just remember though that all those elements will be in the one file and they wont be made as seperate files !!

I also found the lovely charm in CA and thought it would look nice on the wreath, then a simple doily from sil store finished it off nicely

Thank you for looking
Love debby xx
