Love my Cameo Blog Hop
Hi everyone and Happy Saturday!!
Today, we are having a fun little Love My Cameo Blog Hop- and I am so excited to be co-hosting this with the talented Amy Chomas from Chomas Creations. Her blog is where the hop starts, so if you want to start at the beginning- you can click on her blog link. Otherwise–this is the 2nd stop on the hop! 
This hop is going to have fun Cameo projects, some free files and some giveaways even-so enjoy the hop!
I have had my Cameo since November- and I have kind of, sort of, fallen in love with it! I can’t stop cutting– I want to make something every single day. I love that I can design my own files, I can print and cut with it as well as make fabulous rhinestone creations with it. If you follow my blog- you may have seen my projects with the Cameo in the last few weeks.
Today- I wanted to try out another awesome feature about the Cameo- which is that it is compatible with Amy Chomas adjustable pen holders- It’s basically a pen holder that fits in place of the blade- and allows your cameo to draw, write, sketch and more with all kinds of pens, markers, and more.
For today’s project I actually used a Ranger Perfect Pen Bullet Tip 
I put the pen in the holder- loaded it into the Cameo- and then when I sent the project to the Cameo- I used the pen option instead of the blade option.
The typewriter was drawn by the Cameo, and can be found as a sketch inside the Silhouette store- After the Cameo was done drawing, I sprinkled red embossing powder over the image and then used a heat gun to set the embossing powder.
It gave the scrapbooking page an embossed look, that you see on so many papers nowadays!
I added a piece of paper, slightly curled- with the stamped sentiment Just my Type from the Pink by Design stamp set Timeless Pieces- I wanted it to look as if the paper was coming out of the typewriter.
I then added some fun ribbon to the bottom, ruffling the red and white ribbon as I adhered it to the page.
Okay–who is ready for a free SVG file?
Now for some GIVEAWAYS
1 lucky commenter will win the Pink by Design Mustache stamp set
and….1 lucky winner will also win the Echo Park Yours Truly paper collection.
Your next stop on the hop is the talented Lisa Barrie-- you are going to love her!

This is such a pretty layout!! I really really really really want a cameo!!! Shipping to Canada how ever is way out of my budget!! I guess I will have to just live through those who have one for know!! I love how you drew the type writer and then embossed it!! I am a follower and would love to win either the stamps or the paper!!
Love this!!! I had NO CLUE you could do that with the Cameo! I need to play with mine A LOT more!
That is way too cool! I’ve been wanting to try to heat emboss with the pen holders! Looks awesome, great page Sarah!
I am very new to Cameo and you folks are so helpful. I love the blog hop and all the amazing ideas plus the generosity of the hosts to share your talents. thanks
OMG I love that embossing I am so going to use this technique on something, thank you so much for showing it.
Beautiful layout-love your ribbons!
Off to my craft room to use this technique on some valentine day cards thanks for the tip.
I never even thought of drawing with the cameo with an emboss pen so I could heat emboss the design….great idea!
What an adorable layout, Sarah! You’ve given me another good reason to look into one of those Chomas Creations adjustable pen holders. So happy to be a part of this hop with you!

I Loooove your layout! I’ve been wanting to do the heat embossing, but I need to get a pen holder. It looks amazing. Thanks for the wonderful idea.
Wow, what a fabulous page! I LOVE anything with text in the design. I see paper with text, and I completely fall for it. You did such a great job with the typewriter! I’m so used to thinking that embossing is for cards only; I never would have paired it with scrapbooking. It looks fabulous over the text.
…..love it!
great layout Sarah!! love how you made that typewriter!!
OMG, I loove your layout design Sarah! And the Yours Truly paper pack is so beautiful too.
Thanks for the freebie.
Your page came out so cute!

What fun all this is!
Great layout! I already love and have the typewriter sketch from Sil but have yet to incorporate it into anything I’ve done. That simple idea of curling the paper was brilliant and has me wanting to use it as soon as I get home from work. Love, love, the echo park paper and how you used that as well. Thanks for letting us hop along!
Awesome job! Very cute!
Wow, will have to try one of the embossing pens….great layout!
I just found your website today and i love it! Thank u for all that you share regarding the Cameo. I love mine! Awesome layout. Love the use of the pen!

I have the cameo on my wish list… You do beautiful work
I’m glad now I didn’t throw out the embossing heat gun I bought years ago … I’ll have to try that technique!

Oh, Sarah, your layout is so awesome. Thanks so much for the instructions on using the pens. Your typewriter is on my list to do, now. I tried the pens when I got them from Amy, but, did not set the Cameo on pen and what a mess I made. Now I know. Thanks for the chance to win. patnbobcuddy at gmail dot com
What a beautiful lo!!! I love all the “little” details you added that make it all the more sweeter
I’ve heard about others using the heat embossing w/their cameos but have been a bit scared to try it… After seeing your lo, it has me excited to give it a try!
This is beautiful! I love this layout and all the detail you put in to it, it is fabulous!
