Silhouette Cameo Advent Calendar
With Halloween over and a chill FINALLY making here to Las Vegas, it’s official… The holiday crafting season has begun!! One of the first things on the list, a new Advent Calendar for this year.
The folks at Silhouette have come up with a genius Limited Edition Christmas Advent Calendar Kit designed specifically for your new Cameo or your Silhouette SD, the best of BOTH worlds!
I love this whole concept. You get the limited edition empty box from Silhouette along with a download card filled with all of the fabulous box styles that you can use to fill it.
Then all you have to do is CREATE your very own! What I love most about it, is that you can change it up every year to match your holiday mood. I don’t know about you but…
I tend to vacillate between colors and styles every year. This year, I think… I am in a red and white rustic, elegant Christmas mood with a little old world flair.

The New Silhouette Cameo Test Drive
It's no secret that I am a huge fan of the Silhouette personal electronic cutting tool. I've used Sophie, my Silhouette SD to make my Portable Growth Chart and a fun Weathered Wood Sign for my friend Sarah. I've made temporary tattoos, etched glass and have made all kinds of fun t-shirts for my kiddos. All kinds of fun projects have come from my sweet Sophie. Well… today I want to introduce Camille my new CAMEO to you guys!!
The Cameo is the next generation Silhouette electronic cutting tool and my friends… it was LOVE at first sight! The Cameo has a much larger cutting capacity with a full 12 inch wide and 10 foot long cutting range. Did you hear that? You can make a vinyl sign that is TEN FEET LONG without having to piece it together!!! This is a new day in the personal cutting tool world.
Silhouette was kind enough to send one of their new Cameo's to my studio to take for a test drive. It didn't take long for Camille {yes, that's what she has been named} and I to become fast friends. I decided I wanted to work on a project that I have had on the back burner for awhile. I had this fun lamp that I new could use a little bit of love and I thought some vinyl inside and out would turn this simple and boring lamp into a lamp that could truly make a statement…
Did you notice the little secret the lamp has? We all know, a clever girl ALWAYS leaves something to be discovered and this fun lamp is no different. When you turn the lamp on you will see that the trendy chevron pattern continues on the shade as well…

Barn Owl Primitives {Giveaway}
This Giveaway is CLOSED
I have been so excited for this giveaway I am going to post it a little EARLY!! I don't know about you but I am in love with all the fun things that you can create with words and beautiful topography, weathered wood and paint. You can find all kinds of great signs all over Etsy that are created with vinyl, but… how about a HAND PAINTED sign? I have been in LOVE with Barn Owl Primitives for some time and I was soooooo excited when this arrived in the mail the other day…
I turned into a giddy little girl when this brown paper package arrived all tied up with pretty ribbon. Kristi and I had worked together on a fun sign and I couldn't wait to see it! It's a great new Family Rules sign with a fun little twist…
I decided that I wanted to add a pop of red to the sign to highlight one of the most important "rules." Didn't it turn out aaaamazing!! I love the blue on the weathered white wood with the fun red Love One Another. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!! Kristi is a true artisan and I am LOVING my "new" HAND PAINTED beautifully weathered sign.
Here are some more of the goodies that you can find at Barn Owl Primitives that I may need to add to my shopping list…
