Jessica and I love getting together about I've a week to make something. We call it our "Craft Day"! We love doing this, we do anything from crocheting, making something for a holiday, sewing, painting, cooking, and the list is endless! Today you are seeing the product of our last two craft days. Last Saturday my other daughter Emery who lives in Mesa came down and wanted to do a craft day with us. We ended up making blogs. I had already had a couple that I have had for quite sometime but just hadn't done anything with for a long time. This one originally was one I started when I thought I wanted to become a photographer. After a short time I realized I enjoyed doing it, but only for me and my family. So I started posting a few pictures I had done...just for me. Then when the girls were here I thought it would be fun to post the things we make and do for our craft days. So here is my start.
This was just a simple board painted black, vinyl cut with my silhouette, and graphics i got from the silhouette website. Yes I have a silhouette and I love it! I love everything it can do! I used to have a Cricut Imagine, which I never got to work the way I wanted it to and really, it is so expensive to make things. Having to pay for every little font or picture gets really expensive! It was just crazy! Then I found my silhouette and I an hooked! I can use any font on my computer and you can actually, with a little adjustment, take almost any graphic and cut it out. The silhouette, along with your printer, make a great combination! Also the Silhouette website has a subscription that you can subscribe to. I found that they have a fun and extensive library of graphics of all kinds on their website. So for basically $10 a month I get $25 with of graphics! There are bigger subscriptions but this one works me just fine!
