I wanted to share a couple of cards that I made using some Studio Calico cut files on my Silhouette Portrait. I also made them for this week's MIM at Papertrey Ink: Detail Glitter Technique.
For my first card, I cut my tree out of white cardstock and adhered it to my card, slipping some October Afternoon & Studio Calico patterned paper behind it. I used PTI cardstock (kraft, ocean tides) and stamps (stylish sentiments: holiday), buttons and twine. For the glitter, I added some SU! dazzling details to my buttons.
My next card is very similar, but with PTI new leaf cardstock and a different cut file. This time, for the glitter technique, I added some smooch to the blue patterned papers on the tree to add a little shimmer & shine.
Thanks for looking!

Leigh, these are so fantastic! Love how you mix the pattern papers. You always have a good eye for that. Shall I play favorites? I want to pick the first one, but I think I'm going with the more graphic last one.
Very fun, unique cards! I especially love the shape of the die cut on the first one, paired with the ocean tides color combo; sophisticated but still very festive. :D
Oh, I really like both of these. Super fun!
ACK!
These are super cute Leigh!!
Both cards are lovely , I love all the detail your machine has cut and the little scraps of paper you have used to fill them !
such unique trees!! love em!
Love both of these, Leigh! Those trees are awesome!! My cameo arrived yesterday and I made my first cut today! Ack! I am in love!
Such delights! I love the almost mod folk design element of both cards. impeccable!
Silhouette looks like a lot of fun. Beautiful cards as always, ESP the first one.- Irma
Two really fab Christmas trees--such fun.
I love how you cut your trees with the plates!! Very genious!!
sorry i missed commenting on this post earlier - love the trees, the color scheme, the patterned papers and use with the kraft. I love the stitching (still wanting my machine to work and hopin Santa got my letter ;-)) and you're killing me with the Silhouette..beautiful cards.
These cards are really cute. Love the calico look.
Leigh, these are really cute cards.
Love that you can use so many details, color & patterns and still have a CAS card - that takes design skill!
