We are very excited! We have a Silhouette Digital Cutting Machine to give away to one lucky Prudent Baby reader!

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

With the Silhouette Machine, I could easily make one of those beautiful cards & a matching gift bag or wrap and save what, $10-$15 bucks a gift? With the size of my family, that's- Priceless...

I just wanted to say thank you for enduring such torture trying out a new product and letting us know how well worth it the product really is. :)
I would use the heat transfer and sketch programs most. I am a re sale shopper and my children love the individuality of remade clothes. The heat transfers would allow me to make awesome designs similar to those professionally worn t's and jeans they see so much at the department store that cost an arm and a leg, at a fraction of the cost. Out BSA troop would get plenty of use out of it as well, they are always borrowing the school's media room for lettering and cut outs. I am sure that the VFD's Ladies Axillary would love the card making for our bake sales!!!

I'd have to make some shirts first. I promised some family members who hiked Half Dome that I'd make them t-shirts to commemorate the event (I didn't get to climb because I was 8.5 months pregnant!). That was over a year ago and the shirts are sitting in a box just waiting to have something amazing printed on them. This would help me keep a promise :) Then I'd make about a bazillion other awesome things.
