Remember these paper and fabric boxes that I made a few weeks ago, using the Silhouette cutting machine?
Well, today’s the day for the give-away of a Silhouette Cutting Machine! One lucky person has the opportunity to win a Silhouette for your very own! You can read all about the Silhouette Cutting Machine on the Silhouette website, and you can see plenty of projects made with the Silhouette and pick up plenty of tips on how to use the machine on the Silhouette Blog.
I used the machine to make boxes of fused paper and fabric, to which I added a touch of embroidery. I really enjoyed the project, and I have other plans for using the Silhouette in the near future.

The give-away is for a Silhouette SD cutting machine. You can see “what’s in the box” via that link.

If you win the Silhouette cutting machine, what do type of projects do you plan to do with it?
2. You must include a recognizable and unique name with your comment. Anonymous comments will be discarded. So… maybe you could do your first name and location, or a pet nickname, or something like that – but it should be somewhat unique. If your name is “Sue,” there might be more than one “Sue” out there! So you could do “Sue from Kalamazoo” or something like that… Get it?

You may increase your chances of winning by leaving a comment on any post on the Silhouette blog, or by “liking” Silhouette on Facebook, but you must do either of those before you leave your comment here. Just let me know that you did either one in your comment below, and I’ll add your name to the draw for a second time. Yep, it’s the honor system!
