I was using my Silhouette machine like crazy when I was getting ready for Elise's birthday party but haven't really played with it since. I am SO not a graphic designer so it is hard for me to "create" things sometimes but when I get my ideas rolling I really love it.
One thing that I am wanting to do is redo a special wall in my living room. We have this one middle wall that doesn't have much because we have a little girl that reaches up and pulls everything off.... I wonder who that is? So far we have a very generic print (in a cheap ugly frame) that we bought at Kirklands when we first moved in that was supposed to be a temporary fix. Well it was just forgotten about and I was always working on other things... anyway! It's time for some new decorating and that ugly picture is out! am REALLY wanting to do a silhouette Wall. Actual silhouettes, not the crafting machine! But I am going to use the machine to make said silhouettes. This is what I am picturing:

Similar to this but I am thinking all different frames and a damask background maybe. Our wall is actually the same color as this one. Then there will be the fun in finding what I can put on the long table that a little lady cannot get to. I am thinking I need a trip to Cost Plus World Market this weekend! Yay!
So all I have to do is figure out how to cut these out on the machine... or I just go old school and print, trace & cut which means it could have been done already!
