End of the year gifts for my students


So, with the gift card that I won, I purchased beach buckets for my kiddos.  I used my favorite new craft machine...the Silhouette SD craft cutter to decorate them. Check out the pics!  I only have to buy goodies to go in them now.

  1. Hi,
    Very cute buckets! Can you explain the tool you used to make the names? What else can it do? Is it very expensive?

    Many thanks

  2. The silhouette SD digital craft cutter is my favorite new craft item. It is awesome! It cuts vinyl, which is what I used to put on the buckets,fabric, scrapbook paper, cardstock...and so much more. you can make templates to etch glass, it can cut heat transfer vinyl to put on t-shirts. Is there anything this thing doesn't do? The thing that is the best about it is that you don't have to buy expensive cartridges for each shape like a cricut. It can cut images you find from the internet, or any clip art from silhouette software that comes with it. here is the website to learn more. http://www.silhouetteamerica.com/
    I purchase mine at http://www.overstock.com/Crafts-Sewing/Silhouette-SD-Digital-Craft-Cutter-with-10-Gift-Card/4400810/product.html
    It was only $189.00. On the silhouette site it goes for $299.00. Hope this answers your questions. if you are a crafter of any kind you need this machine. It makes teacher border and calendar cut outs... I love this thing!
