Or, make this badge for someone (a co-worker, maybe?) and get their day off to a good start.

Sometimes I let the olive part slide – small black olive slices are fine on a pizza. If there are chunks in a salad but they can hide in the lettuce, OK. Also, my olive ban does not extend to olive oil (it’s a texture thing, not a taste issue).
For Valentine’s Day, I put together a punny card featuring the Olive.
The concept of Print and Cut is easy – you set up your artwork that you want to print, add lines to show what you want to cut, and then turn on these magic registration marks so that the Silhouette cutter can take the instructions from the Silhouette Studio software.
The only hard part of the project is taking a decent photo of the garland hanging in my back window. The window faces north, so it’s a pick your photographic poison of too much back light or a weird view of the neighbor’s yard. I promise it looks better in person!
And I don’t need much prodding to produce a garland, so an over-hyped sporting event will definitely serve as an excuse!
For this one, I decided I wanted to hang the garland vertically (which might technically be a streamer and not a garland). And that meant the image needed to be visible on both sides since the footballs were going to move a bit in the air.
I’ve harnessed the power of Silhouette Studio’s Print and Cut feature and added a twist – I double side printed the image.
This card uses them in a bold graphic style to send a hug and kiss through the mail. Perfect for Valentine’s Day!
With the cheerful flower cut out card, it was really tricky to get the colored panel on centered. Worst of all, that was one of the final steps in making the card, so you could ruin all your work right at the last second. This card takes the difficultly level down a notch in assembly by providing an extra panel for folding in.
