Silhouette Giveaway

Aw yeah baby, it’s that time of year again! It is time to try your hand at winning something that might just be on this year’s Christmas list! Today, I have the privilege of giving away a brand new Silhouette Portrait. It might only weigh 3.5 lbs, but it packs a powerful punch when it comes to crafting!

For those of you unfamiliar with the Silhouette Portrait, this fantastic little machine allows you to cut any font or design from your PC or Mac to use in countless projects. The computer software needed is included with your Silhouette Portrait. I adore my Silhouette and have used it for years. I especially love that I can use my own fonts and graphics and can also purchase inexpensive graphic designs online from the Silhouette store. Below is a small sampling of projects that other talented bloggers have created using their Silhouettes. So cute!

I lost my money and I couldn’t afford to get it shipped back to the US for repairs and then pay again for return shipping. now there are so many projects I wished I could do like making decals for the house or screen printing patterns for some gifts I want to make.

    I have scrapbooked for years, but when the Sizzix, and then the Cricut, and now this came out I got overwhelmed and shut myself out of everything because it was so hard to keep up with how fast the industry was exploding. THEN I got on Pinterest, and realized just how far behind the times I was! LOL Now, not knowing how to get into this whole DIY thing.. I’ve wondered which is the best new tool for DIY home decor/craftiness/scrapbooking to invest in.

    LOVE what you’ve done here – Can’t even COUNT the ways I’d use it! From labeling my baking products to my canning jars, to my home made signs and all that jazz…. I’m giddy with anticipation!

  622. Those ornaments are too cute! I’d like to make a banner for the mantle… probably NOEL or LET IT SNOW.

  624. I have way to many projects to list, but I would start with Christmas cards, then work my way down the list. Thanks for the chance to win

  625. I want to create decals for our soccer team and then start looking what I can do for christmas presents.

  627. My sister and I have a vintage repurposing biz, and this would help us make some AWESOME signs on windows, greeting cards, buntings… SO many ideas!!

  629. I love to create signs and decorate plates. My friends have been encouraging me to start selling some of them at craft shows and this baby would really help that little dream come true.

  633. My daughter is getting married in April and we have so many things we could use the Silhouette to make if we owned one!

    Thank you for the opportunity!

  634. I would use it to do all the crafty things I see on other blogs – I’d really love to try out making a pillow design of my own!

  637. Craft possibilities are endless. I’d do vinyl lettering, fabric crafts, projects for church, etc.

  641. I’d like to make some stencils for pillows, etc. Also I have a friend who is a great designer – in fact she is just about to go back to school to get her degree. I know she would love to borrow the silhouette to work on some of her projects.

  652. I’ve had the Silhouette on my list for over a year now, but having 3 Cricuts I can’t justify the expense. But, I would love to win it and make the Christmas ornaments. I have seen so many wonderful products using this machine, I’ve just got to have it!!! Thanks for giving us all the opportunity to win it.

  654. I would love to use the Silhouette to try some vinyl designs. I love that you don’t need cartridges.

  658. What a great product; I would take this to the Christmas edition of our Sisters Craft Night! Thank you!

  659. I would use this to make tons of stuff – Christmas decor, items for our church’s women’s retreat, the possibilities are endless!

  660. I want to incorporate some of my late Dad’s old hand-written sermons into my decor. I have ideas for this!!!

  662. I’ve been wanting one to cut stencils for my wood sign projects. It would be so much easier than making patterns, tracing and then painting free hand!

  667. ahhh!! amazing contest. I’d probably make something for our nursery wall. baby decor is always THE cutest.

  674. I have been wanting one of these, or the Cameo, for awhile now…just waiting on the price to go down! 🙂 I like it so much better than the Cricut!! Good luck to all!

  676. I would make; curtains, and table runners, and place-mats, and signs on canvas and gifts and quilts and……

  677. I would love one of these so that I can make decorations for my DIY wedding. I can’t afford an extravagant wedding, but I have found so many cute ideas online to make for a cheap but classy wedding!!

  678. I’d make some wooden signs, and some vinyl designs for my walls and some iron-ons for my grandsons’ t-shirts. Oh, thanks for the great giveaway!

  685. Fantastic Giveaway. Would love to try the Silhouette, possibilities are endless. Thanks for the chance to win.

  690. I have been waiting for a Silhouette for forever. I never win. I really hope I do. Its amazing the things that can be created with it.

  692. I think that I would try to make some labels for organizing my pantry and for some baskets in a linen closet and office.

  693. I am just dreaming of winning a Silhouette…I think I might make a card first, but there are so many amazing ideas…I definitely need to make a laundry room sign!

  697. I would love to use this to make the letters for my birthday calendars for my family christmas presents. I would also love to make vinyl wall art and other house decorations.

  700. I would LOVE a Silhouette!!! I love crafting, and I am trying to keep it up, even with two little ones (2 years and 14 months). It keeps me sane…

  707. I would love to own one of these. Many times the crafts I make would be much simpler with a silhouette machine. Hope I win it but regardless, thanks for the opportunity.

  714. This is one of the coolest crafting tools out there! I would love, love, love to own one of these beauties! Thanks for the great giveaway! I would start with wall vinyl and then go to things with fabric. So fun!

  732. This would be the best Christmas gift ever! I’m a photographer and I love creating awesome little things for my clients. This would turn into a great business tool for me.

  733. I would love to have this machine because I’ve been handcutting my own stencils for projects and this would make things so much easier! Silhouette has been on my wish list for awhile and winning it would be amazing :]

  734. There are so many things I would make with a Silhouette! The first thing I would probably make is some cute chalkboard labels for some bins in my daughters’ bedroom.

  736. If I got this I would finish my room and start turning the second bed room in to a nursery! And I would let my sistersand mother add extra fun to there houses and use it this year for our cards and tree.

  737. Right now, the thing that is on my mind is fall leaves. We have the tradition of writing things we’re thankful for on leaf shapes during the month of November and sticking them to the wall to remind us of all our blessings. I’ve been cutting them out by hand and so the Silhouette would be such a hand saver! I’d also love to use it for Christmas projects, gift ideas and trying to get caught up on my scrapbooking once the holidays are over! This would be AWESOME!

  739. I would love to make personalized artwork for my home. I have been drooling over this gadget for years. 🙂

  748. I’d start out with labels, but hopefully move on to vinyl, etc!! Thanks for the chance to win 🙂
