For my first Silhouette project, I picked two of the designs that came with the machine. One was a pillow box and the other was this leaf shape. I dropped the leaf shape in the middle of the box and said cut!
I cut a rectangle of green to put behind the leaf to highlight it and constructed my box. For a first attempt, I’m pretty happy. 🙂
I’m so excited about my Silhouette that I plan to post regular projects with it because I’ve really noticed a lack of those. Lots of people post the same photos from the Silhouette site. They’re nice photos but I want to know what new things folks are doing with their Silhouette. I want to see their results. Jessica over at How About Orange has posted a few of hers and they are great. So now it’s my turn to contribute.
Wowee! You’ll never believe this —This is EXACTLY the same thing that I did as my first project when I got my Silhouette last fall. Incredible!
