Here's my take :
I used:
- Cutting file from Silhouette store : Design ID #147869
- Background stenciled with a stencil cut using a cutting file from Paper issues .
- Altenew inks
- Altenew sentiment
- Enamel dots
I had several questions about the paper/ card stock I use with my Silhouette .
 |
| Bristol 180g/m² or 82lb |
This is what I currently use and it really gives a very clean cut. I use the cut settings for regular card stock , but increase the force settings slightly ( 22 instead of 20. )
With colored card stock I use mostly unbranded card . With that I just try to compare the weight and texture to above mentioned card stock and adjust the settings accordingly. I guess with time you get a good feeling about which settings will work for which card stock. As the saying goes... practice makes perfect!

Gorgeous color combo and CAS design, Hannelie. I am always so impressed with your unique CAS designs. TFS my friend. Hugs..
Oh wow!! You totally ROCKED this challenge!!! LOVE this card!! Thank you for the info on the cardstock you used. My husband just bought a cameo for the robotics team at school. Since there is no storage, we get to keep it to use at home!!

Congrats on your GD gig, Hannelie. Your use of their colors is wonderful as is the design of your card. I have picked a Die Cut Queen and a Stencil Queen. I'm making you my Silhouette Queen. ;)
