I am thrilled to announce that I will be giving away a Silhouette Portrait! If you have been wanting one of these wonderful little machines, now would be a great time to purchase one, since Silhouette has a special money saving promo this month.
I love my Silhouette! I used it to make some Easter versions of the Cupcake Candy Jars. I cut up the cupcake wrapper and the cute little chick topper and added it to the top of the cupcake. For complete instructions on how to make these candy jars, refer to this post HERE. To make the topper I taped a toothpick onto the cutout and pushed it into the caulk while it was still slightly wet. I made sure to let it try just a tad so it was just a little stiff.

Boy am I out of it! I’ve never even heard of this before, but I have been wanting to make an advent calendar. I know I’m thinking way ahead into the future, but I wanted to make one this past Christmas for my 2-year-old. I didn’t get a chance to, but I definitely want to for him this year. He’ll understand the concept of Christmas way more this year. I hope I win this!

Every year me and my son make custom birthday cards for his birthday party. We always invite his whole class, 25 +. This year his party is at a skating rink (his idea, not mine.), totally going over the top with the cards this years. It would be a blast to be able to take his invites to the next level.
