It’s a Fabulous Crafty Cutting Silhouette Giveaway!

by Rhoda on May 18, 2011

{Giveaway is Closed}

Unless you’ve been living under a rock, then you probably already know about the super fabulous crafty cutting machine called Silhouette.

What is a Silhouette, you ask? It’s an electronic cutting tool that connects to your computer allowing you to cut fonts and images in cardstock, vinyl, heat transfer material, etc.

It cuts all sorts of fun things from scrapbooking supplies to vinyl art. Lots of possibilities, as big as your imagination can hold.

With several blades for cutting, you can do a myriad of projects with the Silhouette machine. And the best thing is that you can use all the fonts on your computer or download fonts and images from the Silhouette site for little to nothing.

(via Home Stories AtoZ)

It’s all digital, so no pesky CD’s to deal with. All of it is at your fingertips!

This is an over- $300 machine and one of YOU will be the very fortunate winner of this crafting wonder machine. I was the lucky recipient of one of my very own to use and try out and let me tell you, this is going to be a fun machine to have around.

Weren’t all of those projects fabulous? Amazing, fun, and too cute!

It comes with: the Silhouette SD Machine, 2 cutting mats, cutting blades, USB cord and software. AND 3 rolls of heat transfer material. YES! You can use the software and download all of this from your computer. All you need is a computer and you’ll be in business! This is all you need to create and craft to your heart’s content.
