Happy Black Friday! I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving yesterday. Who’s already been up and shopping for hours this morning?? :) To celebrate Black Friday, I’m so excited to be giving away another Silhouette machine today!
Have you heard of the Silhouette? It’s a personal craft cutting machine. It connects to your computer just like a printer, but instead of printing designs it cuts them with a small blade. It’s small and portable, weighing in at only 4.5 lbs. There are no expensive cartridges or alphabets to buy – it comes with the software to create your own designs, and you can also cut out any font on your computer.. Yes! Including all the Kevin & Amanda Fonts! :) And guess what. The Silhouette is Mac and PC friendly.

I just have to tell you again how much we loved those peanut butter rice crispy brownies…..thanks again for that one….YUM YUM YUM
I would love to try the rhinestone pattern setting.
It would be fun to have a Silhouette for myself, but if I could, I’d give one to the middle school where I work. The teachers there are so creative and really long for one, but it’s not in the school’s budget for now. Since we use both PCs and Macs it would be perfect for everyone. We’d use it make all sorts of inspirational signs for our hallways, fun bulletin boards, and much-needed shelving labels in the library. I bet the teachers would even make t-shirts for special events to encourage our students. Go Warrensurg Tigers — and their teachers!
I would definitely make some etched casserole dishes & wineglass as a wedding gift for an upcoming wedding!
I would love to try the tattoos and the etched glass
I would try the glass etching to make some gifts for Christmas. :-) I really enjoy your blog, Amanda! You make me smile (and so do your adorable pups).
Too many ideas… vinyl lettering in the kids’ rooms, organizing/labeling everything in it’s place, making a Christmas countdown calendar. I’d put it to good use!
I’ve been wanting to try the vinyl to decorate my house, like maybe house numbers on the front door.

I would etch glass my kitchen containers. What a great giveaway : )
I am a volunteer at the Boys and Girls Club. Funding has been cut and we are scrapping for any and everything to do art projects. I would use it to teach the kids to make cards, tshirts and just about everything else. Please please please let me win!!!! (LOL)
I’d use it of course for scrapbooking projects, but I’d love to try the glass sketched look on pyrex dishes. Very cool!
The first project I would try is the glass etching – Love thoses projects!
Definitely the vinyls for my home. I’ve got my eye on one for my main wall in the living room. I would love to be able to make it myself. Thanks for the chance to win, Amanda!
I’d want to try every single one of those, but FIRST would definitely be the t-shirts! I’ve been wanting to make some cute t-shirts for a while!
Oh, I would definitely try the heat transfers, immediately followed by the tattoos!
I’d try glass etching, looks fun!!
I would love to decorate the walls of my Grand kids room with gears and robots plus throw in a large clock on the wall of the living room. Humm, wonder if eveyone would be on time….Well, probably not but it sure would be cute.
You can do so much with vinyl, so I think I would try that out first, then probably the glas etching! Hmmm…great Christmas gift ideas are already forming in my mind.
I would love to try some vinyl projects and work myself up to a iron-on vinyl for shirts. I would try it all!!!!
Glass labels, and scrapbooking! What an amazing giveaway!

My first project would involve some of that vinyl. We have a new apartment with blah walls and I’d like to jazz them up a bit!
What wonderful ideas. I want to try them all, but I think I would start with paper crafting, just to get the hang of it before going on to the more “technical” stuff. Thanks so much for this offer…I’m keeping my fingers crossed.
I would love to have the Silhouette! The first thing I would do is try some glass etching and label some glass canisters for my kitchen – flour, sugar, etc. Thanks for this giveaway, Amanda! :)
I think the heat transfer technique would be my first project but oh, the Christmas gifts I could make with this!!
I’d love to win the Silhouette and I’d first try the glass etching. That looks so awesome and a great way to take an inexpensive set of glassware and make it not only personalized to the recipient but now a valuable set of glassware.
I’ve been wanting to make some wall decorations for a Family Tree grouping so I think that’s where I’d start. Then I think I’d like to give the etching a try.

Hmm, where to start?! I would label areas in my pantry, then move on to the laundry room, and then into the kids’ rooms…would it ever end?!
What wouldn’t I do with this machine?!? I love the idea of putting names on Pyrex dishes. I would also use it for making greeting cards and invitations for my biz. Then I’m sure I’d try everything else. :)

What fun! :)
The glass etching looks like so much fun!
I would totally do my hybrid scrapping projects with this… thanks for the chance!
I would love to make some vinyl stickers to put on our walls or front door. I also love the etched glass as well. We have recently started using our Ball canning jars to hold a lot of our pantry items so the etched glass would be awesome.
