    I’m picking my daughter up at the airport on July 4. She’s been away camping. :) Perhaps we’ll get to see some fireworks on our drive home.

  3. Karen J says

    We are heading to SC to meet our brand new little red headed addition to the family. A Silhouette sure would come in handy to cute up some onsies.

  4. Sarah says

    Wishing I had a Silhouette this week as I cut out numerous stars for a centerpiece I am making as we are hosting a BBQ & Fireworks in the front yard for the 4th. Sadly, our BBQ will likely be help inside thanks to the 100+ heat we are experience in NorCal right now. Hopefully it cools down enough for the fireworks fun that evening. 4th of July is why I love my neighborhood and street – we all gather with stand-bought fireworks and put on our own show versus going to the city-held fireworks with all the crowds and drunks. We melted parts of a neighbor’s ladder last year, designating it the neighborhood fireworks ladder after that night!

  5. LinhC says

    Smoking some ribs on our Green Egg then watching fireworks at a nearby baseball stadium with neighbors.

  6. Lauren@SimplyLKJ says

    You can check out our mouth watering ribs, pasta salad, and berry cobbler on my blog. We celebrated early as the rain is here to stay for the week :(

  7. Allie Sansing says

    We re just cooking out and watching fireworks at the lake. I’d love to make school spirit items! shirts, bags, and i need labels!!!

  8. carol roberts says

    where goin to be bbq n and eating some ice cream we have some like cool weather like last night in texas it was 65 yes u read right and today i didnt even need my air on im so like wow like last year it was 109 and hotter now its not supposed to be over 91 this week

  11. Lynne says

    As a retired military family, we will spend the fourth at our annual parade. And when Old Glory passes by, you will see this family stand as she passes. God bless America!

  12. Kristen says

    Just found out the company my husband works for decided today to give then both the 4th and the 5th off! Yay for a long weekend!

  13. Petrina says

    I have researching machines similar to the Silhouette and have come to the conclusion that that the Silhouette offers the best features for my needs. It looks awesome online; I would love to design with this machine.

    I will be spending the Fourth of July with my family. My father immigrated to this country over fifty years ago from Italy and every year on the 4th he is the first on the block to raise the flag with pride and joy. We are a nation of immigrants and in my family, we are extremely grateful to be American citizens. I love this country and am so proud of all the good it does.

  15. Ana says

    If the rain holds off, we are planning on going to our local waterpark and playing all day until they shoot off the fireworks that night :)

  18. Talitha says

    You are awesome! Thank you for your amazing giveaway! I’ve always wanted a Silhouette! I feel like everyone has one BUT ME!

  20. Carla S. says

    Oh, I have wanted one of these for so long. Thanks for the chance to win one.
    My hubby will be off work and it will just be the two of us to cook out and spend some nice time together. Then we can sit on our front porch and watch the town fireworks display because it’s held just two blocks from our house. How convenient is that!?! :-)

  21. Jennifer T. says

    I’ll be catching up on work for grad school. I’m ready for the semester to be over so I can do some real crafting.

  22. Karen H. says

    My son and daughter both have to work on July 4. :( So I’m hoping they will be all be able to come to our house so we can have a cookout one day this weekend.

    Thanks for the awesome giveaway!

  24. Sue says

    My two girls and I would LOVE to have this! We love to craft and create all sorts of things.

  29. Amber E. says

    I’ll tell you something awesome! I just painted something ombre for the first time today and I’m in LOVE. I’m in love with the way it looks, of course, but the whole paint blending process is freaking awesome and yea… I’m a total artsy nerd. ;) Now I just need one of these fancy Silhouettes so I can make even MORE awesome stuff. :D Thanks for the giveaway!

  30. Heather says

    Thanks for making it easy – I get so tired of jumping though hoops! Let’s see – well – my hubby actually has the 4th off so we’ll be packing up the children and a nice little picnic and heading out for a nice afternoon, weather permitting!

  31. Julia says

    Our neighborhood is having a block party & I’ve been want a silhouette FOREVER… I’ve seen some awesome 4th of July crafts ;)

  33. Morgan Smith says

    For the 4th of July we are having a neighborhood parade for all of the kids…they LOVE it! We decorate bikes and wagons or whatever else the kids want and walk through the neighborhood (maybe next year I will have a Silhouette Portrait to help with the décor;) )In the afternoon we are having a BBQ with my brother and his girlfriend then that night we are going to our local minor league baseball teams game for fireworks after. When we get home our neighborhood will be doing a community show so we will go watch that. Busy day but so much fun!

  34. Carrie says

    We are having the best 4th! Our son, PFC Sullivan will be getting home from training. He hasn’t been home for 4 months. Not long compared to Army standards, but very long by this Loud and Proud Momma’s standard. I know he will be gone on much longer tours, but this is our first 4th as family of a true American Hero!
    By the way, I definitely need to make some patriotic signs for my soldier!

  37. Eligonma says

    If I had a dollar for every time I’ve entered a Silhouette Giveaway… I would REALLY like to win a Silhouette!

  38. Jeanine Russell says

    I have watched my daughter delight all with her Cricut but have never been able to afford one so far. I am new to a Silhouette but know I can figure out how to make some cool, crafty things to use at work and at home. For work I fundraise for the Dolly Parton Imagination Library sending free books, almost 4,000 each month, in the mail to all the children between birth and five years old in two counties of Georgia. We often make book marks to give out but they are not very inspirational so I know we can create awesome ones with the Silhouette Portrait.

  39. Holly says

    Please pick me :)

    We are walking in a parade, heading to a chicken BBQ, and then on to our cottage on the 4th. God Bless America.

  40. Amanda Buccieri says

    For the 4th ill be spending time with family, fireworks & s’mores :)

  43. Bethany A says

    This would be great to win. I could make some cute stuff for my new baby and my older daughter.

  44. Peggy says

    I would absolutely love to win the silhouette portrait…my nieces wedding is coming up shortly and it would be so much easier with the silhouette to make center peices & more options then me hand cutting everything :) For the 4th it will be just me and my boys my husband is away at work and my daughter will be with her grandma getting sized for the maid of honor dress :) have a wonderful 4th and thanks for the chance to win :)

  45. Erin Chupp says

    Heading to Branson with my entire family. 3 kids in one hotel room = I could really use a giveaway win! :)

  47. Jen Thomas says

    Would love to win! Feeling crafty! :)

    Hanging out with the fam for the 4th.. Swimming, BBQ.. and praying the rain stays away for the fireworks!!

    • Lisa says

      I’ll keep it simple, I just really want one of these machines!! So many uses!! Thanks for the chance to win!

  49. Pamela says

    I have been wanting one of these for so long to make signs with but I always find something else more pertinent to spend extra cash on. Crossing fingers! Also happy bday to your baby girl!:)

  50. twelve30 says

  54. DeAnn says

  60. Shawn B! says

    Ooh, ooh, pick me, pick me! (That was my best Donkey impersonation – from Shrek)! Thanks for the giveaway!

  61. Lisa Antaya says

    I would SO LOVE to have a Silhouette Portrait machine!! This giveaway is so timely – I was just researching the Silhouette yesterday, but knew I’d have to wait quite awhile before my budget would allow me to purchase it!

  62. Kristen Bray says

    For the 4th we are celebrating by having a cul-de-sac party with our awesome neighbors.

  63. Nicole says

    Heading over to spend to Grandma and Grandpa’s to spend the 4th with them. Grandpa puts his classic car in the parade and the kids throw candy out for the parade watchers. Always a fun event for Papa and his special grandkiddos. Have a safe and happy 4th everyone!

    I would LOVE to win ! There are so many DIY projects that can be done on the silhouette machine. I am keeping my fingers crossed :-)

  67. Margaret Lambdin says

    Hi Emily, My name is Margaret and I would love to win the Silhouette. I think I should win because July 5 is my 67th birthday. Don’t even ask me how I got so old because apparently it just sneaks up on a person while you are busy with life. I am a retired Social Worker and College Professor.I have always been an amateur crafter. I love to paint, embrodery, sew, crochet, and what my Mother always called “piddlin'” I have become obsessed with learning new skills on Pinterest and with all of these wonderful Craft Blogs.. I am entertaining the notion of starting a blog to showcase some of my work. I think the Silouette would be a great addition to my crafting studio (actually my kitchen counter). So I really hope I win.
    Thanks,
    Margaret

  68. Pat R says

    I really really REALLY!!! would love to win the Silhouette Portrait machine. I just became a grandmom for the 3 rd time, but my first Granddaughter. I am on a fix income and would love to make so many crafts for my family. Keeping my eyes,fingers,toes crossed. Having a BBQ on july 4th with my fun and loving family. Thanks and happy 4th.

  71. Nevelyn Schooler says

    I live in Alaska and I am currently working in Washington State. I am going home on July 3rd for a visit and I get to see my husband and my son who is home on leave. I am one excited girl.

  72. Allison K. says

    I would be so excited to own a Silhoutte Portrait machine. My Mom is getting ready to retire and I’d love to get her started on her own. She really needs a hobby!!

  73. Casey says

    We’ll be going to fireworks and celebration on our local military base on July 3rd. We’re retired military, with a son still serving in the Army. So then we’ll also go to the community’s big fireworks celebration on July 4th. Can’t get enough celebrating the our wonderful country.

  75. Lynn says

    taking my cousin who are coming in from the east coast to check out fourth of july weekend in the bay area. will be fun and full of eating!

  76. Patrice H. says

    For this week, I am teaching my girls about Independence Day and what it means to us.

Thanks for the contest!!!

  78. Lydia says

    It’s a 4 days weekend for me and I am going to be spending most of that time in the pool! Also, my sister and brother-in-law are coming in for the weekend and my mom and I are throwing her a baby shower Friday night :)

  83. Angie K. says

    My awesome share is that right now it’s too hot & I’m melting! Whew…Southern humidity is a beast! Ready to hit some cool river water & chill!

  84. Tricia M says

    We will be going to my in-laws for a cook-out in the afternoon. I plan to do some “picking” in the old barns on the property to see what I can find. Then we will be coming back home to go to our town’s fireworks show. We take blankets down into the park and sit almost directly below the show. It is so awesome to see them so close and without anything in the way. It’s a little tradition that we have started since our son was born. We watch the fireworks as a family in our own town and close to home.

  85. Sharon Lynn says

    Hoping to have enough rain-free time to see our awesome local fireworks show on the 4th and celebrate with our family :-).
    Thanks for the opportunity – I would love to win a Silhouette!
    God Bless You :-)

  87. Nicole says

    I got a phone interview with the job I applied for. I was stoked! Here is to hoping for a second interview soon.

  88. Nicki says

    We’re going to the beach for the 4th! Unfortunately, no where around where I live does fireworks for the 4th, but we’re hoping to drive around and find some since my little girl has never seen any, and my little boy hasn’t seen any for several years.

  90. Susan H. says

    What would be awesome is if I would win. I would love, love, love it. Thanks so much for chance to win.

    I hope I win!!!! I’m spending the 4th with my wonderful family – that’s the best way to celebrate any holiday :)

  96. Marti says

    I never seem to win any of these giveaways but I’m interning anyway because I would LOVE to have a Silhouette!!

  100. LeAnn says

    I need something awesome in my life!
    This spring has just been the worst I have ever been through! I need a light at the end of the tunnel! My family needs a pick me up and lets craft! I lost my beautiful daughter in law and it seems I just can’t get going! She loved to craft with me whenever they came out! (I will love you forever Lindsay!)

  101. Carol Borders says

    I would love to win this for my daughter- in -law. That way we could share it but I know she would flip over it. For the 4th of July my husband and I are going to the zoo with my son and daughter-in-law to celebrate their 2nd wedding anniversary and my granddaughter’s first visit. Later that night we are going to local fireworks with my daughter and son-in-law for my other granddaughter’s first firework show. I hope you get to have as much fun as I will.

  102. Katy P says

    I have been wanting one of these machines for a long time! I would love to do some glass etching, wall vinyls, and embellish some clothing! Would love to win!

  103. Joyanne T. says

    I like to sew, and I am using the summer break to teach my girls to sew. Using the Silhouette for quilts, tshirts and special projects sounds perfect. We also love to scrapbook, make cards and other crafts. What a neat machine!

  106. Wendy R. says

    Having a bbq and fireworks with the family for the 4th. On a side note, I have been obsessed with upcycling and painting furniture. LOL

  107. Debi says

    Since my daughter is in Michigan volunteering at Life Action Ministries Family Camp, hubby and I decided to work on our home on the 4th :( We will still smoke a brisket, pray for our military & our country. We are preparing our house for the market because we found an awesome house that we’d love to move to!!! Think of the decorating I will get to do!!! I will have a dedicated craft room so I would LOVE, LOVE, LOVE to win the Silhouette!!! A fabulous new toy for my daughter and I to enjoy together as we create memories in my craft room :-))

  108. faith moreno says

    This summer we have decided to visit as many Texas State Parks as possible. We plan to go early and hike early. We have been collecting a rock from each park. So far we have 4! Not to bad for this HOT HOT Texas weather!

    Would love to win the Silhouette and make these memories last!

  109. Pamela Bendall says

    Our 4th will be spent recouping from surgery. Hubby’s been sick. But I will still BBQ, just for us. Then watch the firework shot off at town square. But I really, really need the Silhouette. Spent today making dress up hats the hard way. Really have a 100 projects I could use the treasure for on a daily basic!

  111. Heather N says

    Spending the 4th with extended family! Hoping the weather is gorgeous! Would love to win one of these awesome machines and start creating like crazy!!

  116. Kellie S. says

    I will be helping my daughter finish unpacking at her first apartment all week. For her it is a very exciting Fourth of July :)

  118. Wendy says

    Emily,
    Just love everything you post. I’m continually in amazement what a person can create with a Silhouette! Would love
    To try one out – although I have no idea how complicated they could be?
    Happy 4 th, Wendy

  119. Stephanie S says

    My friend has a silhouette and I love hers! I teach preschool and it would come in extremely handy for class projects. Silhouette is AWESOME!!!!

    I don’t have to work this weekend!!! That’s about all I have for awesome right now.

  123. Ashley Randall says

    We will be returning from a dance competition…I am dying for a silhouette! I have wanted one for about a year now, can think of tons of projects I could use it for…just haven’t been able to swing the splurge! I would LOVE to win!

  126. MB says

    Just excited my husband has thu and fri off and Sat and sun. Works so hard for us and time off just because never happens.

  127. Cindy says

    Ohmygoodness, I’ve been trying to win a Silhouette for probably two years. I just painted my first plywood sign this weekend and was irritated that I didn’t have one. haha ::fingers crossed::

  129. Rebecca Monce says

    We’re just going to see fireworks on the 4th. We’re having a cookout on the 5th though because it’s my BIRTHDAY :D and that is completely awesome! What would be even cooler is winning the silhouette for a late present!!

  130. Marilyn says

    I’m not sure what, if anything, I will be doing on the 4th. Probably, packing and getting ready to move 700 miles! I have been looking a Silhouettes for a long time trying to decide to purchase one. I already do so many crafts that I always am a little leery about getting into something new but if I was to win one, the decision would be made for me. :0)

  131. Tracie M says

    I will be celebrating my daughter’s 10th birthday on the 4th of July. She loves having fireworks on her big day!

  133. Sherry Best says

    My daughter is home for the week from Washington D.C.. We are spending time visiting family and friends that she has not seen since Christmas. I treasure every moment that we get to spend together!

  134. Lynn says

    Spent a few days at the beach last week with our family (11 of us now) …especially loved watching our little 14-month-old grandson have a ball! Welcoming our second grandchild in September and our third in February! I am truly, truly blessed!!! P.S. Would LOVE to have a Silhouette so I can be that “mema” who makes all the cute stuff for her grandkids! (ok…and herself…) ;)

  135. TONIA ALLEN says

    swimming all day at the in-laws and having my husband cook everyone some delicious food.

  136. Susie says

    I would love to win this cameo. I have been dreaming about one for years. My friend got one for christmas and i finally got to use it a few weeks ago and i am totally hooked.

  138. Jamie says

    Hanging out by the pool during the day and then off to a friends for the evening to watch some fireworks. Should be a great family day. :-)

    Jamie

  139. melle@feathered ruffles says

    I’ve got to be able to organize and make labels, etc for bins and storage as we get the renovation done. between that and all my sewing projects, a silhouette would REALLY come in handy… i’ve been lusting one for over a year now…

  141. Kim Strom says

    I would love to will the Silhouette machine to spruce up and organize my home!

  142. Aubri Dickerson says

    I am spending the week of the fourth in Breckenridge, CO! So so beautiful :)

  144. Suzanne S. says

    I’m going to the beach with family and watching fireworks off the pier. thanks for giveaway!

  145. Jenny@thelavendermagnolia says

    You know what is awesome?? Your daughter turning 1! She is adorbs! I’ve enjoyed watching her grow up way too fast! Actually both your girls are adorable and I am not just sucking up! Pinky promise, as my 16 year old still says. And girls are the best.

    I am dying for a Silhouette because I have a dresser that I want to do reverse stenciling on, and can’t figure any other way to do it without a Silhouette. I have wanted one for two years, but it is so far down the list because I am out of a job and have been for 3 months. Being unemployed sucks, except I get to craft a lot more. Actually it doesn’t suck too bad except for the lack of $$$!

    Jenny

  146. Nancy L says

    Spending the 4th with family. Thank you for the opportunity to win a useful tool for upcoming projects.

  148. Gloria R says

    Not doing much for the 4th due to empty nest. BUT I did see a number of ideas for so many decorating items that I could use the Silhouette Portrait machine for the 4th of July next year. Come to think of it, I’ve seen ideas all year long that could keep me busy. I would love it! :)

  150. Kristine Rude says

    Spending time with my granddaughter
    in Norway. Was able to come for the birth of my
    Second granddaughter.

  152. N Sequeira says

  153. Elizabeth Bee says

    Awesomeness: my garden! Right now, the corn, basil, blackberries, jalapenos, and cucumbers are thriving.. Thanks for the giveaway!

  154. Kayla Lawrence says

    I absolutely love July 4th and this year we’re celebrating by going to our town’s celebration. There is a parade in the morning, festivities at the park, and a HUGE fireworks show at night. It’s my baby girl’s first Fourth of July and I’m so excited to spend the day with her, my husband, and our family. Thank you for the chance to win!! I really hope I do!! :)

  156. Jo @ Let's Face the Music says

    I have nothing special planned for the entire summer except to pack up most of the house so the renovation can begin (I hope by the end of July). I would love to win a Silhouette machine to use for wall words and stencils. Life would be a lot easier than trying to create the above with a pencil and a matte knife. Jo @ Let’s Face the Music

  157. Celeste says

    We’re having family over for the fourth for a barbeque and we’ll be shootin’ off fireworks and celebrating one of my girls 12th birthday at the same time. Fun!

  158. Alicia Beckett says

    I’ll be at the beach! I would so love to see all the ways a Cameo could get my creative juices flowing. I’ve been needing a way to get my crafty mojo back! I bet the Cameo would spark a bunch of fun ideas! I love how that the connected world we live in can be used as a springboard for creativity! It’s contagious in the best way!

  160. erin p. says

    For the 4th we are just going to a picnic in our backyard with or little one, light sparklers at night and then bed:-)

  161. Elizabeth M says

    A silhouette is #1 on my craft tool wishlist. I would love to win thanks for running this giveaway.

  162. JenWoodhouse.com says

    Two things that are awesome:

    1) As a mother of 2 young children, I had 2 hours all to myself yesterday getting my hair cut and colored like this: http://pinterest.com/pin/352266002073828747/
    and
    2) The in-laws are coming for the holiday weekend so that means we have babysitters and can go watch a movie for the first time in forever! World War Z, here we come!

    Happy 4th of July weekend everyone!

  165. Heather Pence says

    My husband will be off work for the 4th! He works really hard 7 days a week so this is a special treat for me and the kids (and him too of course!)…still not sure what we’re doing, but we will all be together! =)

  167. Cathee V says

    Spending the 4th with family. I will be making Paula Deen’s easy peach cobbler. Yummy!

  168. Rachelle says

    The 4th is a much needed family day. Time spent together is the best time. Would so love to have a Silhouette but it is not something our budget can do. Thanks for all you helpful info. Happy 4th! Celebrate our Freedom and those who protect us.

  169. Lisa says

    This year’s 4th will be a low-key affair. It’s supposed to be crummy, weather-wise, but if it happens to be nice, we’ll probably head to the pool or local water park. The rest of the time will be spent getting my DS ready for his first sleep-away camp next week. Love your blog!

  170. Christina G says

    For the 4th of July my fiance and I will be laying by the pool with my family and house sitting! I’m so excited for a relaxing day after a rough work week!

  171. Rosalyn S. says

    I’d love to finally win one of these silhouette giveaways! I’d have so much fun creating!

  173. Sue Moore says

    I would LOVE, LOVE, LOVE to win the Silhouette. I have been salivating over them for over a year but cannot afford to buy one just yet. Thanks for the opportunity to win!!!

  174. Courtney says

    I am finally ready to take the plunge and buy a Silhouette! I’ve been weighing my options for a while and I’ve decided it’s time…I sold off some unused equipment and saved up to buy one!

  175. Kaitlynn Nielsen says

    Getting ready to close on our first house next week! This would be great in decorating it!

  177. Michelle Hill says

    We will be making a whirlwind trip to see our families for the 4th. I am SO excited to see them and SO dreading the roadtrip part with my 5 and 7YO! It will be so worth it though :O)

  178. Natalie Shaw says

    I would love to win the Portrait! This weekend is sure to be full of fun…although none of it is planned yet! Time to scour pinterest and work up something absolutely adorable! :) Thanks for the giveaway chance!

  179. Julie Kirk says

  181. PattyG says

    I have been planning so many projects that I would do with a Silhouette!! I keep trying to explain how life would change forever with one of these!

  184. Debbie M. says

    I would love to win a Silhouette to put in my new craft room. Oh, and we just got a pontoon and plan on spending the 4th on the lake with it.

  186. Michelle Smith says

    Thanks for the giveaway!
    We’ve headed to the beach for our Fourth of July!

  188. Judy D. says

    Relaxing with my children and grandchildren and of course watching the fireworks.

  189. Melissa says

    I have entered so many times to win one of these! I have so many ideas for it. Crossing my fingers!

  190. Stephenie says

    Nothing for the 4th, my two year old is scared of lightning so we don’t think he will like fireworks. We’ll watch them on TV and just relax. My husband is being furloughed next week so it’s good to just keep our money in our pockets.

  192. Marilyn H says

    My Awesomeness is a hometown celebration with my kids!! Small parade down main street, BBQ, Games, Fireworks, just like when I was a kid!

  193. Becky N says

    We will be in AZ for the 4th! Visiting family and finally getting to meet my cute little nephew!!

  196. Nicole A. says

    We will just be relaxing on the 4th, which is something we don’t get to do very often anymore!

  198. Brandie says

    We are going swimming at grandmas in the morning then off to a bbq with friends. It should be a great 4th!

  199. Raysha P says

    I’m just having a relaxing day at home spending time with my husband and 2 little boys for the Fourth of July. With how busy we have been, I think that’s pretty darn awesome!!

  201. Julie W says

    For 4th of July, we are doing sort of a route party. Starting at my parents’ place for late lunch, swimming and general cooling down (since it is supposed to be 112 here!) until about 7, when we head to my brother & SIL’s place. There, the kids will be able to play on the inflatable waterslide while the grownups grill and imbibe a few adult beverages in preparation for the block party fireworks display at dusk. It’s going to be a long day, but we will spend it we people we like and love, so it will go all too quickly I’m sure!

  202. Michelle says

    My sister and her twins are flying in that day! I am very excited to see them. We haven’t seen the fireworks in a few years. So I am taking them to Aquatic Park/Ghirardelli Square for an early dinner. Then a dessert picnic with hot chocolate of course to stay warm. After all, it is San Francisco!

  203. Leena Lanteigne says

    My hydrangea bush is awesome! It started out as just a little twiggy bush, about 6 inches tall. The flower bed flooded at one point, causing all the plants around it to rot, yet it still stood there. A blizzard a few years ago broke off a lot of its branches and I feared it wouldn’t grow or bloom – it did both come spring! It has always had blue flowers, but this year it has done something special! It has bloomed mostly blue, but it includes a few white blooms and three pink blooms! I’ve decided that it wanted to be red, white and blue I honor of the USA and 4th of July! You can see pictures of it on my blog listed above. Thank you for the opportunity to enter this fantastic contest! Hugs, Leena

  204. Tawnya Marney says

    What’s awesome is I have a 4 day weekend coming up! Can’t wait to celebrate the 4th then have a nice long weekend to get things done around the house. Or maybe just relax.

  207. Debbie Vigil says

    This 4th I will be celebrating with friends and family at our block party! Love thy neighbor, yo! ;) And hopefully be planning on what to do with that beauty, if I win it! I was just cutting hundreds of decorations by hand for our son’s 1st birthday and saying how I need one of these!!

  208. Maryam Y. says

    I’m not doing anything special this 4th of July. Maybe I’ll finally get some sewing done? I’ve been meaning to for weeks :P

  209. Alicia B says

    I’m going to have an awesome time in Canada, Whiteshell Provincial Park, loads of kayaking and hiking with great weather finally! Hope to win a Cameo I would love it! Thank you!

  210. Lori m says

    My husband passed away recently, we’re making a little memorial garden for him where our grandson can put Papa’s painted rocks.

    Happy 4th to all, hugs, Lori m

  211. MARISSA JOHNSON says

    I’m going to the drive in to see Despicable Me 2 and Monsters U and I don’t have any little kids!

  218. tracy c says

    I hope to celebrate with family and friends this 4th if my hubby is well enough to attend. He was involved in a freak accident at work this past week and is absolutely blessed to be alive. If he isn’t well enough to attend then we will still celebrate in some simple way at home. Any which was this giveaway goes I am already a winner to have another day with my loved one. God bless!

  220. Liisa says

  262. megan says

    For my daughter’s 14th birthday, we decided to decorate her bedroom. So, she got the first painted room in the house (lived here over a year!), I’m making a padded headboard and a whole slew of projects. Today I recovered her desk chair, and it is awesome! Now if I had that Silhouette, I could cut out the vinyl leaves I need to put on the wall so they aren’t plain. Thanks!

  264. ellen casper says

    I would have so much fun with one of these! Thanks for the chance to win!!

  268. Elise P says

    How much do I want this Silhouette? SO BAD! I’ve heard of these for the last year and my friend told me about what they do and I want one so bad! It’s so cool how much it can do and I have even downloaded the program through Silhouette to figure it out before I finally get one. We have our first baby coming in Sept and I want to make things for the baby shower and nursery!

  270. laura says

    ohhhh, would love one of these little bad boys! Oh the possibilities!

    Thanks for the chance!

  272. Tona in Bama says

    Huge week here for me!  First of all our corn is almost ready.  We will be on the back porch with the family shucking, silking and cutting corn to put in the freezer.  We will have our entire family and all our neighbors over on the 4th for a barbeque and fireworks…(lots of good food and desserts…yum!).  Would love to have the Silhouette to aid in scrapbooking all the week’s pictures :)  Hope you have a blessed 4th!!!

  281. Deana says

    I’ve been dreaming of a Silhouette since I discovered one last year! I love the fact that you can buy individual images rather than a cartridge full of images you don’t need! Thanks for this chance!

  282. Anne H says

  292. Teresa says

    We just went to see the Lone Ranger (awesome movie!) and later we’re going for a walk around the neighborhood. There are a few places around us that do fireworks so if we go for a walk we can see four different shows instead of one. Our celebrations are low-key this year, usually we go to my in-laws but weren’t able to make the trip out there this year because of summer College courses.

  295. Paige Storsteen says

    Just took my little girl to watch the fireworks, she love it! We would love to win the silhouette portrait giveaway !! :-) Happy 4th of July!

  296. Christin Harms says

    Oh, yeah, I need this silhouette! I would be labeling everything in my house if I had one!

  315. megan Calhoun says

  319. Donna says

    I have been wanting a silhouette for a long while. My daughter and I have a long list of things we will use it for. I have the entire month of July off and would love to have one to use with my daughter.

  321. Heidi says

    I’m loving celebrating the 4th of July in Nebraska with my husbands family because fireworks are legal here! (rather than CA) :)

  322. Ebba says

    I’ve been wanting a Silhouette for ages, first project I would do is a birthday banner. The Silhouette would be perfect for cutting out all the letters in a fun font. My fingers are crossed! Hope you had a happy 4th.

  323. Julia Hill says

    I’d LOVE to win one of these to make decorations for my classroom and home. I’d also love to use it to make gifts for my family and friends!

  331. KellyAnn says

    I’d so love to win this Silhouette and be able to enhance my scrapbook pages and cards with different shapes, fonts and artwork, too. What a cool machine – and lucky me has the summer off to get to play with it! Thanks for the chance.

  332. Sharon says

    I will rave about the meal I had for the Fourth (I was invited to a friend’s home) we had steak on the grill, and corn on the cob, avocados, cantaloupe, strawberries, yams, and a huge mixed green and other-things salad! It was a feast! (And when I left I promised to donate one day to her to help with a good top to bottom house-cleaning.)

  335. Connie Haack says

    I have so many ideas I would like to make for Christmas gifts if only I had a Silhouette. I really enjoy seeing all the things created by you bloggers!

  337. eva says

    I have a cameo already and love it. I’m trying to win one for my friend Christina!! thanks!

    I have been drooling over the cameo and portrait for a LONG time and would so love to win one! If I won, I would make all sorts of cute labels to organize my entire house!

  340. Jan says

    I have been wanting one of these so so bad!!! I would love to win the silhouette portrait. I could do so much with this machine. Thank you!!

  346. Crystal K says

    I would really like to win this machine. I am such a girly girl in a house of 6 men/boys, no girls. So things like this are my girl time. As for the 4th. We took our boys fishing for the first time. And they each caught their very first fish. They were so excited, so now all I hear is, when are we going fishing again. :)

  347. Darcie says

    Sadly, I didn’t do anything fun on the 4th! I stayed in and sent my kids with grandparents to the fireworks. Finally got out to the pool yesterday in the swimsuit I made myself.

    I’d love to win a Silhouette to keep the crafting going and be even more awesome! :D

  348. Donna says

  356. Jen says

    For the 4th, we had a family reunion and watched fireworks at a local park. It was wonderful!

  357. Monika M Creative says

    Just saw this.. Here goes: I’m starting my own custom invitation design company and would ABSOLUTELY LOVE to own this baby. Making mock ups and custom cutouts would be so much easier with the silhouette!!! And being that I’m just starting out, I need all the help I can get! Pretty please with a paper cherry on top? : D

  361. Christine says

    I just want a Silhouette so badly! All my crafty friends have one…but I don’t. :(

  362. Cyndy says

    We drove across the country and our van had big complications on the way. :( Winning this could help though! ;)

  363. Jennifer J says

    We had a cookout on the 4th, and on the 5th we watched the post fireworks from our yard.
    Thanks for the chance

  368. Leslie Moore says

    First of all, let me say, THANK YOU for the simple entry! Such a breath of fresh air.
    Here in the panhandle of Florida, it rained all week last week so, we did NOTHING for the 4th. It sure would have been nice to have a Silhouette to do some fun crafting while stuck inside during the flood!
    Thanks again.

  372. Becky Bixler says

    We were going hiking and have a picnic but it rained and still is raining…..but it was still a great day.

  379. Jessica says

    I love,love, love the silhouette!! I want one so bad. Every time I am going to order it something comes up and I never have enough money or to scared to spend the money. I love doing crafts. My husband is in the service so between raising two boys, crafting is what I use as my escape and vacation. I have been organizing my house and this would be perfect to help make fun labels. I love the holidays and this would be to much fun to get to make fun crafts ejh my boys. I have a circuit and I am not that impressed but it works just doesn’t do what I am wanting to do. Love the silhouette, wait did I say that already?? I really do like the silhouette. It does so much. I shared it on my Facebook page for my friends to see!!

  380. Krystal D says

    Resting, I know that might sound lame but we just got back from an 8 day mission trip and we are feeling very blessed but very tired ;)

  383. Allison Hendrickson says

    I would love to have a Silhouette so I could make my husband a Welcome Home sign when he returns from his deployment!! Thank you for this simple entry.

  385. Liza A. says

    I spent the 4th of July on the interior of my new house. Paint samples, fabric swatches, trim color and playing with all my vintage stuff, pottery, linens and the like.I ended the day with a swim in our local lake, a beautiful glacier made spring fed pond, while the fireworks were happening. A Silhouette sure would be a fun addition to all the madness!

  387. Vicki Whitney says

    Thanks for this giveaway! I would love to win it for my son’s classroom (he is the teacher).

  388. Jenni Nicassio says

    I would love to have this machine. I really love all the vinyl decals out there but can’t afford the proces. It would be really cool to make my own and add to my blank vanilla walls.

  389. Lisa Hawn says

    Thank you so much! I would looooooooove a silhouette! Sometimes I feel like the last crafter on earth without one! Sigh! I think I want one more than an iPad and I really want an iPad!

  390. Jenni Nicassio says

    I would love to have this machine. I really love all the vinyl decals out there but can’t afford the prices. It would be really cool to make my own and add to my blank vanilla walls.

  391. Amy Maurer says

    I visited my sister in Cali and met my new niece!!!! She is soooo adorable, and I would have stolen her if I could :)

  392. marin d says

    Fun giveaway! We have a fire in the mountains west of us so our 4th of July was extra smoky. But we got out of town for the weekend. That was nice.

  393. Celinka says

    Found out today my little one doesn’t need another sleep study right now, which was very good news!!! Also hoping to add to the goodness by winning one of these amazing machines! :)

  395. Kirsten says

    This would be the perfect way to finish up our basement remodel! I want to add quotes to the walls but can’t find ones I love that aren’t crazy expensive. Please pick me!

  396. Carol Ann Petersen says

    The highlight of my week was when I was I was leaving my 10 year old son with his grandparents for the week, he called me back to give me a kiss on the cheek. Such a rare sweet thing. :) I’d love to design something for his new room. Pick me, pick me!

  397. Kelly says

  407. Kristen T says

    I would LOVE to get my hands on one of these!! I have been eyeing them for a while and I just haven’t been able to pull the trigger. There are SO many things I could do with this!

  408. Kara Miller says

    Had an awesome July 4th. Got some much needed family time. What made our 4th even better was our newest edition to our family. Our son was born on June 25th. My little girl actually loved the fireworks this year, she’s 3. Every word out of her mouth was,” That’s AWESOME”. I felt truly blessed this 4th of July!!

  409. Shannon says

    I would love to win this great machine! Went to the lake here in KY and all it did was rain…have never, ever seen the lake that high in the 20+ years I’ve been going. I have one question for you…will you come to my house and teach me how to use it if I win it? Thanks for all your great posts, I’ve enjoyed it tremendously over the past couple of years. You rock it!

  413. Mary S. says

    I’ve been trying to convince the hubs that I REALLY need one of these to make cute appliques and other things for our son and around the house… He’s not listening! I honestly think that I soon as he hears Silhouette or Cameo he tunes me out… GRR!!

  416. Amy Perry says

  427. KC says

  430. Lynnette says

    I had a party with friends yesterday for a belated 4th of July, and it was so much fun! I am so happy to have a house I can entertain in :):):)

  432. Sandrea says

    I want one of these sooooo bad!! LOL I have my fingers crossed. It’s not in the budget anytime soon since I need to replace a dying sewing machine, but winning one of these would be the true definition of “Christmas in July”!! Thanks for the opportunity!!

  433. Jenny Booth says

    Spent the day with the love of my life and our three daughters. First year we were all together. Hubby was either deployed or away during the fourth. Amazing!!

  434. Chelsey says

    I helped my dad build a porch for the 4th, and have been relaxing in the shade with my family since then :)

  436. Gypsi says

    Thanks for hosting this awesome giveaway! My Mom and I are both dying to have a Silhouette! We both make cards, she does decoupage, and I enjoy scrapbooking. I get giddy thinking of all the ways we could use one!

  437. Angela Robinson says

    We watched a 4th of July fireworks display on the 3rd…to beat the crowd for the display on the 4th, then just hung around the house with the kids and let them play with sparklers in the yard. My husband travels a ton and had just returned from a 6wk trip….so quiet family time was just what we needed.

  438. Jenn b says

    I would love to win I have so many things on my list to make with it :) hope you all had a great 4th

  440. Sara says

    I would just live to own one of these beauties! It will definitely help with organizing my home & girls playroom!!

  441. Rachel Hansen says

    Just getting ready for GIRLS CAMP with over 100 girls ages 12-17 next week…. LOTS to do and I tell ya, having a Silhouette would come in REAL handy right now. :)
    Happy Summer!!

  443. Lani St Hill says

    Fun has been fantasizing on pinterest all the monogram crafts I could do :) All my friends are monogram crazy here in the South- would love a Silhouette to help me make them some amazing gifts!

  445. Kris Reynolds says

    I would just LOVE to own a Silhouette. I just have so many crafts and projects in my head to make and the Silhouette would be perfect!!

  446. Marianne Guymon says

    I would so love to have one of these! It’s been on my birthday/Christmas/anniversary for quite sometime but hubby hasn’t been able to afford it. We’ve got a toddler daughyer and a new baby girl on the way and I have so many great ideas for decorating and stuff that this would come in handy for! So hope maybe this will be my first ever contest win!!!

  447. Marianne Guymon says

  449. Alexis Jasek says

    Classroom teacher….need I say more? Well, okay, if you insist. I have been using a Cricut and honestly, am feeling really limited…. so many Silhouette ideas…..

    Again, CLASSROOM TEACHER!

  450. Janelle C says

    I’d love to have this machine for creating awesome party decor for family birthdays!

  453. Lisa says

    My husband was home for the 4th. First time every since he fights Forrest fires. We went hiking and bbq’d dinner.

  454. misty A says

    I have been wanting one of these for so long! I have a list of projects I need this for!

  455. Krista Julian says

    Something happy? Children!! And we have 4 of them plus 2 exchange students who will be in here in just a few weeks and I crave organization….nothing better to get motivated with than this :)

  456. Darleen Weston says

    I really would love this machine! Wow; I’ve never heard of one . . . SO SO NICE!

    Now, what did I do for the 4th! I made burgers and the like for our lunch. During the evening, my family of 5 went to our nearest town for a free firework show!!

    I hope I win!!

  459. Tierra Lowry says

    My fourth was quite interesting. Our car was running out of juice and we ended up driving home (1 1/2 hours from home) with the windows down in 106 degree heat. That was our fourth. Oh and my son got bit by a spider and we did a few sparklers right before bed. We survived!!! Oh, and I would really really really love to win. Yay!

  461. Capi Cohen says

    I keep seeing wonderful things made with a Silhouette and I would love to have one. Selfishly, I hope I win.

  468. Carla says

    I just scored a vanity table, mirror and a nightstand at a garage sale, $12 for all, woohoo! I would love love to paint them, then make some stencils to use on them, and a Silhouette is the way to go! Want to win :o)

  469. Hillary Beemer says

    I love summer time and the thought of getting projects done using a Silhouette is out of this world!

  472. Monica Kertz says

    I would love to win this. I would use it in my classroom for sure….
    For the 4th, we had all of my husband’s family for a visit. They brought their campers and parked them in the yard–we live in the country. Fun Times!

  480. Meghan Anderson says

    I would love to have a Silhouette! I wold love to use it for my son’s school!

  481. Qwendykay says

    I think I threw my best 4th of July party ever. We had 40 people and it was a blast! And I would love a Silhouette, thanks for the easy giveaway.

  482. Diann Ruesch says

    Thanks for the awesome giveaway! I would so love to win this awesome Silhouette. Not only because it’s such a handy tool that I would have so many fun projects to use with it, but also this giveaway has the Designer software too. Which I understand is totally amazing! Hope, I win! ;)

  484. Cristin Vosburgh says

    Something awesome….My kids are probably destroying their rooms instead of picking them up right now while I’m writing this. It’s awesome for them because they are having fun, but that awesomeness might change in about 20 seconds when I re-enter with my ‘mom stare’. ;) They are only 2 and 4, but my 4 year old knows what it means! :)

  485. Meghan says

    I’d love to win a Silhouette because I’ve been seeing them around for the last couple years, and I’ve entered quite a few giveaways but haven’t won one yet. Thanks for the chance to get one!

  486. Sandi says

    I would love to win the Silhouette cause then I could give my Cricut away and start bonding time with my daughter. She prefers rhinestones and fabric to paper. :) The Cricut limits “our” creativity. :)

  487. Fiorella Monge says

    I would love to win the silhouette so I can make all kinds of cute things for my daughter’s 3rd bday party

  489. Jenny Brown says

    I would love to win the Silhouette!! I have TONS of projects in my mind that I could use it for! P.S. My 14 year old daughter broke her collar bone yesterday! :( Poor baby.

  490. Tiffany Galvez says

    So…half off on designer studio is exactly what I was looking for…but I’d love to win it and a portrait too!!! Can I wait to buy studio until after you’ve announced the winner? Will you announce before the promo is over??

  491. Alicia says

    Please please pick me! I’ve had such a hard and sad week and could really use something good about now. My brother in law passed away this week after battling a brain tumor, and my toddler ran into a wall and split her head open, resulting in her first ever ER visit. I’m running on empty at the moment (and I realize how pathetic that sounds). So pick me!

  492. Tiffany Galvez says

    I tweeted about this. Cool huh? Now…I really need to make over my drab house…so pick me! :). Really, it’s just boring, and my husband has given me the permission to shop and buy and make it over, but I have no clue where to even start. I’m no good at this…your blog provides much inspiration. Hmmmmph…maybe if I didn’t live 90 miles from the nearest craft store of any sort I’d be in business.

  493. Edie S says

    Thanks for a chance to win. Anything that would make my crafts look great is a plus for me! :)

  494. Jenn says

    I would LOVE a Silhouette! I have one of the original Cricuts with just 2 cartridges that my awesome sister got me years ago, but that’s it because with 4 kids, I never spend any money on myself for anything but absolute necessities. My baby boy is 2 days older than your daughter, congrats on getting through the first year! :)

  496. Rose Schneider says

    First of all, THANK YOU so much for not making us like tons of pages on FB, Pinterest or Tweet!
    I spent the whole weekend with my family. My brother is leaving for Africa tomorrow. He is going to be there for 3 years with his family. They are going with Lay Mission Helpers. We are nervous yet excited for him.
    I would love to send his kids some cool projects made with my new Silhouette. Keeping my fingers crossed!!
    Thank you for the chance to win!

  497. Julie says

    Visited a great Salvage yard store with a friend on Saturday. The teenage boy who waited on us asked if we needed help loading our car. We told him no, he jumped in his truck and drove off. We loaded, drove to the front and discovered we were locked in!!! He left us!!! We had to call the police to get out—who showed up about 25 minutes later and the owner soon followed. I heard the Sheriff say “they don’t look like your typical metal thieves”. I need a silhouette—it will be a much more relaxing DIY hobby :) Thank you for the opportunity.

  499. Cindy says

    Made a road trip for the fourth to see family that I only see around the fourth (14 hour drive) and it reaffirmed that family rocks! Must make the effort to see them more often.

  500. KWolff says

    I am slowly working my way to becoming a stay at home mom. I am a designer with Origami Owl and I leave tomorrow for the first ever national convention. This is awesome for me because this trip is getting me the training I need to convert from an 8-5 job to something more beneficial for my family.
    I have been blessed with an amazing hubby that is 200% supportive of my new business as well as super helpful in my creative endeavors. :) A Silhouette would definitely help in all aspects of this!
    Thanks for the chance!

  501. Kassy says

    I got to enjoy my holiday by not working and going out on the boat! Anchor Bay, MI
    It’s only a few hours from my home but when you are there you feel as if your on an island far, far, far away!

  502. Annette Larsen says

    We skipped the fireworks this 4th of July and went camping! I have SO many projects in mind for a silhouette. Pick me! Pick me!

  503. Carissa R. says

    Neighborhood fireworks! Thank you neighbors! How awesome we didn’t even have to drag our 3 kids out and about for it.

  505. kristin says

    I have been dreaming of this machine FOREVER!!!!!
    Hmmm…. the fourth of July we had a big block party with BBQ, fireworks and over 1000 water balloons, so much fun.
    XO
    Kristin

  506. Katy says

    I was able to go downtown for the crazy fireworks show this year and LOVED it!!! I have always wanted to go but had never been… It was the best 4th ever!!

  507. bran font says

    I have been dying for this machine!!!! Thank u for the giveaway. We bbq for the fourth

  509. Holland Park Apartments says

    I do not even know how I finished up right here, however I
    assumed this publish used to be great. I do not recognise who you might be but definitely you’re going to a famous blogger if you happen to aren’t already.
    Cheers!
