Silhouette GIVEAWAY!!!!!

This giveaway is closed. 

( Warning: This post will have lots of these !!!!!!!!!)

I know, crazy right? I get to giveaway a Silhouette SD machine!!!!! The Silhouette company sent me a free machine a while back and now they are going to give one of you fabulous readers a Silhouette SD for FREE!!!!!!!


Here are some of the many things I have been making with my machine:

I used some frosted vinyl to cut out an "R" for our front door. I love that it is subtle. It looks like I etched the glass but it isn't permanent.

I am sure you have already heard about the fact that Silhouette can now cut fabric! I tried it out and it wasn't as scary as I thought it would be . It was very simple. I made a skirt and then cut out some circles with the Silhouette and ironed them on. I will have a more detailed post about this skirt later this week with better pictures.

I also added "our" monogram to this pitcher. I used glass etching stuff for the first time.  I don't think any of the glass in our house is safe....

 A friend of mine had a baby so I made some onesies as part of her gift.
 This one is my favorite! I love the water drops :)

I made some dinosaur shirts for my boys using the green flocked heat transfer material Silhouette sent me. I really like working with it! Probably even better than the smooth heat transfer.  I made a T-Rex one for my baby but haven't taken a picture yet. Just use your imagination....

 (Horrible picture, sorry!)

Okay, I know this picture is lame. My little boy was being the photographer and most of the pictures came out blurry or it cut off part of the words on the shirt. I know you are thinking "What is she looking at?" But I didn't know he was taking the picture. So lets focus on the shirt mmmmmmkay???

 My husband was the photographer for this one (if you couldn't tell). I thought I was very clever to come up with this one so if you have seen the same thing somewhere else don't tell me. I would like to think it is an original. If you hate to paint but love to eat you could always have a Cinnamon roll. Or if your daughter is into gymnastics you could have a picture of a girl doing that.



I have been labeling everything from my kid's portable DVD players to the coat rack. I even put a cute saying on my bedroom wall. I am loving this thing!!!!

  13. I just found your blog a few weeks ago, but I now have to check it EVERY DAY! You inspire me to pick up power tools, something no one else has been able to do! I love all your furniture pieces you make and refinish! And I've been wanting a Silhouette for a really long time, and wish I could buy one, but we're trying to PAY OFF our debts, not get more into debt, so I must refrain! (I MUST REFRAIN! I MUST REFRAIN! Yeah, maybe if I keep telling myself that it'll work....)
