Happy Swaggin' Saturday everyone.
I bet there are some crafty Leelou readers out there that will appreciate this amazing giveaway I have for you today.
Please read this next sentence in your best Oprah voice-

Who want's to win a Silhouuuuuuette????
{Ok, ok sit down, stop screaming and crying}

I was the happiest girl in the world when I was sent a Silhouette to review and I have to say that I am now a hard core believer of it's awesomeness.
A Silhouette cutting machine can do so many things I don't even know where to begin. Let me give you a quick explanation of exactly what it is:
The Silhouette is a digital cutting tool for personal use. It connects to your computer just like a printer, but instead of printing designs it cuts them with a small blade. With the machine connected to your computer, you'll get access to all of the fonts on your PC plus the thousands of designs found on the Silhouette Online Store.

It can make...
Scrapbook pages
Cards
Custom apparel
Vinyl décor
Etched glass
Sketch designs
Temporary tattoos
Paper crafts
the list goes on and on.

Here is just one of the projects I have used my Silhouette for. My 3 year old daughter is in a totally independent phase and wants to put on her shoes all by herself. Because of this, she often puts her shoes on the wrong feet and her toes hurt after 3 minutes. So I thought I would use my new fancy schmancy Silhouette to cut out an image onto vinyl.

I then cut the image in half and stuck half in the left shoe and half in the right shoe. Now she just has to line up the picture of the butterfly correctly to put her shoes on the right feet.

I don't think I have ever used anything so versatile, helpful or creative. You can save so much money on gifts, Birthday parties (you should see the cupcake wrappers!) and school projects.
I have a long list of things I have yet to make with it. I don't even have time to tell you of all the fabric projects I have in store. I love this thing!
