Boy do I have a big surprise for you today! In addition to all the fabulousness of Free Pattern Month, today Grosgrain is having a SILHOUETTE GIVEAWAY!!!!!!!
Are you as psyched as I am?! In case you are new to Silhouette let me tell you a little bit about this AH-MAZE-ING machine.
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.
Use it for:
Custom apparel
Vinyl décor
Etched glass
Sketch designs
Temporary tattoos
Paper crafts
Scrapbook pages
Cards
Use it for:
Custom apparel
Vinyl décor
Etched glass
Sketch designs
Temporary tattoos
Paper crafts
Scrapbook pages
Cards
My most favorite thing to tell people about the Silhouette is that you DON'T have to buy expensive cartridges to use the machine.
With the machine connected to your computer, you'll get access to all of the fonts on your PC plus the thousands of cuttable designs found on the Silhouette Online Store for as low as 14¢ a download with a monthly subscription. Without a subscription downloads are still ONLY .99¢ each.
The cost of a cartridge you have to use with other cutters is around $50 for around 20 patterns and you don't get to choose each pattern individually. That's quite climb in price.
Is there any question which to choose?
But even better is that you can make your OWN designs with the Silhouette Machine using their provided software. Make silhouettes of your children's faces. Save money using the fonts from your OWN computer. Customize the size to your own imagination.
If you would like to purchase one NOW. Silhouette is also offering Grosgrain readers an amazing deal!
Be sure to use Promo Code: GGF to receive discount!!!!!!!
This promo will last until May 25th but no later so don't wait!

I'd love to have a Silhouette machine to do all sorts of paper crafts. I've been helping friends out with decorations for their children's birthday parties and it would make my life SO much easier!
I am a follower and I would totally have so much fun doing some vinyl and fabric printing!
I follow you here and on twitter (greenbean314). What a fun machine. I am borrowing my mom's cricut and the whole cartridge thing is kind of annoying. I guess I need to do some research on this machine.

I really want a silhouette to create wall vinyl, stencils, and iron ons!
I checked out the website (as I have many times before)! I would love to win this machine because I sold my Cricut on eBay to buy it! I ended up not getting paid for it (After being shipped) so no I am without both! I love the capabilities of this machine. I can't wait to own one!
I follow!
I would like a Silhouette to do some glass etching.

After visiting the site I think I would be most excited to use it to make designs on pillows on other house items! I am moving into a new apartment and am really excited to start decorating :)

wow! it even does temporary tattoos! That'd be a lot of fun for matching theming with kids parties- along with every other thing it does under the sun!!
Wow, this is sooo exciting! I am a follower of your blog, and I have been dying to have one of these machines forever. Fingers crossed.
I went to their site. I would love a Silhouette to applique cute things onto my daughter's shirts, and funny sayings for my boy's shirts.
I would love this machine to create my own wall decals and for cutting flower pieces to create headbands and to embellish clothing
I really like how silhouette can pretty up my attempts at organization and creativity.
I am following you on Google and twitter (trezziki)
I went to the Silhouette website, and I am most excited about the ability to create stencils and the pen tool with glitter/plotting, especially since you can create your own designs, not just use specific dies. I would use it to make etched glass, stencils for dyeing fabric and special images I would plot would be made into resin charms.
I'm a twitter follower (@iota1617) and I'd love using the Silhouette machine for tons of projects.
Wow, this is really great!
I would really love to get this great machine, because it can cut out my logo and everything I want to cut.
Best wishes
Michaela

I think I'd use my Silhouette for everything!
Oh, how I'd love to win this! There's so much it can do... fonts, shapes, it cuts fabric, etc. The first thing I'd do - the kids' Christmas stockings could actually have their NAMES on them this year!
Thanks for the opportunity to win.

I visited the site... I'd really like to try the flocked heat-transfer stuff... I hate the quality of the stuff at Joanns, so the idea of getting better quality, and personalized, heat transfer is WAY appealing....
Love it! I'm a follower.
I went to the silhouette site and I would use it for the heat transfer option I have so many projects I could use that feature for. Following your blog! :)
