silhouette digital cutting tool review and giveaway!

When I was working at Lasting Memories, I had a major wish-list item. I'll give you a hint. It cuts paper, vinyl, and heat transfer material, and you don't have to buy expensive design cartridges. If you guessed the Silhouette digital cutting machine, then you must have it on your wish list, too! If you have no idea what I'm taking about, prepare to be amazed. And to want one.

A few weeks ago, Silhouette sent me a free machine to try and review (I know--I've been dancing a little jig ever since!). I came home from Utah to this:

(Jiggety-jig!)

I spent the last year singing it's praises to customers in the scrapbook store, but now that I've had a chance to use the Silhouette myself, all I can say is that it really is AMAZING. I am full-fledged IN LOVE with this machine. Let me tell you why. No, let me show you why. Here is a sampling of some of the projects I've done since I received my machine (yes, I've been busy!):



My very favorite part of this tool is the ability you have to use your own designs and true-type fonts on your computer, plus digital image downloads from tons of great designers (think House of Three and Hero Arts) for only $.99 each (or less if you have a subscription). I have loved my Slice, and I'll still use it, but I hate having to buy a $50 cartridge, especially when I know I'll only really use a fraction of the images. My second favorite thing is how versatile it is. The software that goes with it is awesome. You can cut shapes and letters in any size increments you want, you can take images apart and only cut part of them (which comes in handy when creating a multi-colored image), and you can cut multiple images at a time (which saves time and paper). I really feel like I don't have any limitations with this tool. I can use it for my scrapbooking, card making, home decor, party decorations (think cupcake wrappers and banners!), clothing, even quilting (to cut applique templates). You're going to be seeing a lot with this machine from me.

I have so many great project ideas in my head for this tool, and I haven't even tried the glass etching cream, rhinestone templates, sketching pencils, or printable heat transfer material yet! Check out some more ideas here and on the Silhouette blog (which is incredible, by the way). There are tons of tutorials, FAQs, and great ideas on both sites. Here are a few things inspiring me:






The Giveaway
Okay, enough of my blabbering, here's the big news. Silhouette is letting us give away a FREE Silhouette SD cutting tool and a bunch of free accessories to one of our readers! (You should be doing a little jig about now, too!) Here's what our lucky winner will receive:

*Two rolls of vinyl
*One roll of transfer tape (for applying the vinyl images)
*A scraper tool (for applying vinyl)
*A CD of home décor images to cut
*$10 download card to buy new shapes on the Silhouette Online Store.

Are you kidding me? I really don't think we've ever hosted a giveaway this good before! This is seriously awesome, people! Here's what you have to do to enter. Visit the Silhouette Web site and check out all the great ideas and products. Then come back here and leave us a comment on this post stating how you would use the Silhouette if you won. That's it!

What wouldn't I do with this machine? OMG! I can definitely see multiple uses for this in my house. Vinyl decals are a great decor item, but the heat transfer option is fantastic. My oldest daughter wants to be a fashion designer and I could see her creating endless looks with this.

ShareandRemember said...

I would use the vinyl first & label everything in sight!!

Amy-My hand in God's Hand said...

This has me very excited! I can totally use this for my swimsuit tote (http://myhandingods.blogspot.com/2010/07/swimsuit-tote.html) instead of sewing each letter on.

Amy-My hand in God's Hand said...

I added a link to your giveaway on my blog (http://myhandingods.blogspot.com/)
Yay! Too fun :)

I think this machine looks great. I can't wait to try everything that it offers. Love the idea of not having to buy expensive cartridges.

How wouldn't I use it is a better question. I have been really wanting one of these. I would use it for scrapbooking, home decor, card making, school projects, and probably a million other things.

Kristin said...

This is such a great giveaway! There are so many cool things to make with this. I would have to start with organizing my kids Lego in bins with vinyl labels, then do something pretty, maybe wall art? I love the heat transfers too. I would definitely add a lot to my scrapbook...this list could get big :)

Tricia C. said...

I'm a quilter so I would definitely use it to embellish quilt blocks, to decorate clothes for my daughter, maybe even matching t-shirts for us, and definitely vinyl sayings for my walls. Thanks so much!!

Camie Rae said...

I have wanted one of these for so so long it's ridiculous! I would use about every function it has!! I love them! I love the heat transfer though, I would probably make a whole bunch of clothes for my little men first!

Liz said...

If I win, I'd use it for just about everything I can! Starting, of course, with a vinyl for the laundry room, my kids' playroom, and my bedroom. :)

I'd make cute vinyls to liven up these drab apartment walls my family and I will be staring at for the next three years while my husband finishes school. That would make this place feel so much more like home! Plus I have four cousins, all sisters, and all due with little girls in 2010! The Silhouette would make it so much easier to make the TONS of cute clothes I have planned for them! Thanks for this awesome giveaway!!

This is the most awesome giveaway! I love the heat transfer option. I love making tshirts, but it is expensive! I thought about getting one of those Tshirt making machines, but that is all you can do with it. With the Silhouette, the sky's the limit! Being very active in church and in PTA, I would use the silhouette ALL THE TIME!!!!! I would also love tostart quilting, but I am not a good cutter. This machine would help me start a new hobby! Please pick me!!!!!

Erin said...

I have NO vinyl on my walls... Can you even believe it!? So, I think I'd spruce my walls up a bit... especially in my kids' rooms. :)

Very cool tool! I can see many uses for the Silhouette... starting with augmenting my "white board" to help keep me organized, or making interesting chocolate mousse cup containers, and making little birdie's to put on my windows to keep the birds from flying into the glass, and even putting them on my mom's sliding glass door to keep the grand kids from running into the glass.

Lots of possibilities... M

MJ said...

Love it! I would use it for cooking containers, making small cups for cupcakes or mousse...

Oh, this little machine is too good to be true. I have my first grandchild coming in September and I bought about 50 onesies I wanted to decorate but I was only going to use pens, etc... This is wonderful! I could make cool designs for my kids sports teams, and last, but not least, I could decorate pillows, vases, frames, cupboards, the list goes on and on.

Lahni said...

So THAT super-loud squeal I heard was YOU!!! *ROFL* What would I use it on? It would be EASIER to answer what would I NOT use it on!

I could use this on glass block lights, dry erase boards, picture frames, tote bags, wall art, decals for my car windows, lamp shades, mirrors, decorating my craft room, iron-on transfers for pillows, t-shirts, & quilt blocks, cutting lacy designs for cards (to compliment my vintage seam binding), paper edging/borders, masking projects for painting on furniture, cutting out my GIGs of clip art from my external hard drive so it actually gets used....GF, I could go on for DAYS! *LOL*

I've been on the fence between the Silhouette and the Gazelle by BossKut for ages now, so to win the Silhouette would make me one VERY happy crafter!

Thanks so much for the chance to win!
♥hugs♥

I love love love this. How endless are the possibilities? I would definitely start out with some vinyl shapes and then move on to the heat transfers!

I discovered this cutter a few weeks ago and have been coveting one ever since! I'd probably go wild and make all sorts of creepy decor for our Halloween-themed house but what really caught my eye was the adornment on the Kitchenaid mixer shown in one of your photos. My mixer could definitely use some bling.

I would make some vinyl wall art to liven up my walls! (Plus a billion other projects!)
