New Silhouette Project

I have put on my blog the amazing stuff you can do with this machine.  One idea that I ABSOLUTELY love is called subway art.  If you have a moment check out www.tatertotsandjello.com web site.  Her subway art ROCKS!!!  Very impressive.  There is another link to www.howdoesshe.com.  They also do subway art, and this is the one idea I got from them....

I have a sister, (I have many, and I am the youngest, oldest and middle child, it's all in how you look at us)  she and I are celebrating our birthdays together.  I wanted to do something that described HER.  Let me tell you, it is weird to actually sit down and put into words to describe someone.  Actually, once you put the words down and look back, it also reflects about you too.  Strange but true.  Can't help but smile when you look at the words you wrote.

I came up with the obvious but when it came to details I looked at my family for help. I wanted them to be a part of this project and I took 18 words and used my Silhouette machine to cut out and then I went to work.

It was very random in the use of the words, it didn't help with my transfer tape not WORKING at all!  I was dropping letters left and right!  So a little project that would have taken me lets say an hour, took me almost four!  ARRRGGGG.  But I got it done and it was a labor of love.  I hope she likes it!

What do you think and what words could you come up with to describe someone you love, a husband? Child? Mom? Dad? Sister? Grandchild? Teacher, Best Friend?  The list goes on and on.

I just used a 12x12 tile from Home Depot and put it on a plate stand.  Simple but very personal.

It's just the beginning!!!!

I am like a mad scientist!  Whaahaaaahaahaaa!  That is supposed to be me rubbing my hands together making a sinister laugh, don't know how to spell that laugh, sorry!

Have a great day!
