Make your own letter blocks with Silhouette

Today's is a quick card using pre-made Silhouette letter outlines.  The focal is a dazzle from Hot Off The Press, as are the border stickers.  However, it can be much less expensive to buy your own adhesive-backed vinyl and cut your own.  I cut a 4" x 12" sheet all at once with greetings that I commonly need, so they are ready to go when I need them.  This particular example uses the font "CK Fun Boxes" which I believe came with my Creating Keepsakes Scrapbooking software.  The outlines can be backed by any color and/or printed paper, so easily enhance any card design.  In this case, they are backed by a turquoise glittered cardstock that is also used for some borders.  You can't tell well from this scan, but this is a card that is a bit of a 3-d design like the other "fancy fold" cards I've made (see listing under "cards" in the menu at the top of the page.)
