I ordered the Silhouette cameo on September 9th, 2014 and I have had it for nearly 2 months when I made these projects. When I ordered it my computer was in the shop for repairs. My Silhouette arrived in mid September around the 16th, but I hadn't been able to use it until nearly two months later because it took so long to get my computer back.
I was wondering and wondering what to make first, so many amazing projects, Art, clothing, decore, paper crafting, gifts, the possibilities were making my head swim. I felt like I knew exactly how to do everything with my machine from all the YouTube videos I watched, all the blogs I read and all the things I pinned on Pinterest. I however still didn't know the first thing about welding or working with a design that isn't made ready for me to print (it took me till now to get there, and there is still a lot I could learn I am sure).
Anyways here is what I decided on for a first project. I am a little bit of nerd if you can't tell from this vinyl decal. I purchased the download here.
After that I made a cut out of Olaf from Frozen. Here is the work in progress as I don't have a photo of the final result but here is where I got the file for him and you can guess what he would look like from the layers.
Then I tried using freezer paper as a stencil and fabric paint to paint a t-shirt. I used a image I found online and transformed it into a cut file. (I learned much in my first week with my silhouette) My husband was very happy with this "gift."
After those projects I tried my had at Glass etching, OMG I love Glass etching!!! Fun Fun Fun! Check out my Harry Potter themed Shot Glassed. I Designed these myself with some Pinterest inspiration.
(If you want to buy your own beautiful set I like these ones on Etsy.)
Stay Creative my Darlings.
