GIVEAWAY: SILHOUETTE DIGITAL CUTTING TOOL!!

THIS GIVEAWAY HAS CONCLUDED. A WINNER WILL BE ANNOUNCE ON FRIDAY, OCT 1, 2010. THANKS EVERYONE! WE HAD SO MUCH FUN!

We are very excited! We have a Silhouette Digital Cutting Machine to give away to one lucky Prudent Baby reader! I've noticed these cutting machines before but never thought they were for me because I'm not a scrapbooker. But when the ladies at How Does She? contacted us on Silhouette's behalf about doing a giveaway and promised a Silhouette for us (well, one of us, thanks Jaime!) and a Silhouette for you (well, one of you) how could we say no?!? If I didn't like it... I could just send it back and never speak of it again. Well, let me tell you, I like it. I like it very much. And I've only just begun!
So far, my projects are simple, using the templates that come with the starter kit, but I'm totally smitten and ready to try more! Maybe even some scrapbooking!

Here is a gift tag that I made with some cardstock!


And here is a little pillow-box that I made with more of my favorite Martha Stewart Craft Paper


And then just to try something new, I did this spoooooky spiderweb window-cling in adhesive vinyl. Clare has already requested an entire Halloween scene in her bedroom windows!

I am actually going to place an order for some of the chocolate molds they have! The buttons would be perfect - a am planning a ball/everything round first birthday party for our daughter. I love buttons and chocolate - what could be better than chocolate buttons? :D

Advertiser - Dove

Well, the only thing I associate Dove with is those small chocolate bars. When I used to work and a bridal store, life wasn't always sweet at work - so once in a while I had to go to CVS (which conveniently was right next door) and get some Dove chocolate.

On a side note - both of my comments are about chocolate! I am not an addict :p Nope :p NO :p

I Cook With My Kid ~ love it. I love the pantry/fridge/freezer section.

We try really hard to include our just turned 2 year old in cooking. In fact when she is not with us, she is normally in her play kitchen cooking. Last night she was cooking risotto and kept coming over to us saying "Make sure you stir it often. Slowly add the stock and stir. Okay, sweetheart, okay?"

I am drooling just reading all the things you can do with the Silhouette machine. This way more sophisticated than I ever thought. I cannot wait to get my hands on one for sure. I wonder if my husband reads my tweets and blog posts. I have been hinting for a while. Hope he does...it's my birthday on Sunday. It could be a cool "push present" since I'm a new mom of twin boys.

Talk about cutting it close. I love the crafts I'm seeing people do with the Silhouette. I would love to win and start my own crafting. I would do it all but I think I would have to start with some shirt appliques for my 5 kid's.

I forgot to type what I clicked on. I am in love with the baking cups from bakeitpretty.com. I actually book marked this site. Planning a few birthday parties the cups will come in handy for sure.

Somehow I've really been missing out on what Fabric Worm has to offer. I'm always looking for great kids fabrics and they have EVERYTHING right there! Where have I been.

I found over at Smile and Wave that Rachel has a collection of typewriters. Which instantly reminded me of my collection of rotary telephones. It's not so much that we need them, but we really do, right? And I'll have to spend a little time over at Pretty and Preppy.
