Silhouette Classes for November are here and we are getting ready for Christmas. 



Silhouette Out Of The Box  
Thursday November 2, 2017

If you are new to Silhouette/Cameo and wondering how to get started, or if you need a little review, this is the class for you.

We will go over how to set up your Silhouette/Cameo, making your first cut and purchasing designs.  You will also learn how to manipulate your designs and what all those little icons are used for.  You will receive a 10 page "bible" of all things Silhouette and  some fun homework projects, including a simple vinyl block, to get you started.


Bring your laptop and your machine and mat, we will get you cutting and creating before the night is over.


Cost $15


Silhouette Intermediate Class

This class is for all those who have taken the
Out Of The Box Class or are already familiar with the Silhouette.  In the intermediate class we create projects using silhouette files and learn new techniques.
This month you will create a large vinyl Christmas sign.  Makes a great gift or use it in your own home.

You will need a wood board for this class.  I will tell you how to get it when you sign up and I send you the file list.

The Design club is for advanced users of the Silhouette and you must have Silhouette Studio Design Edition Software.  In Design Club we move at a fast pace! 

In November we will make Santa bags as you learn how to apply heat transfer vinyl and printable heat press.

If you wish to purchase draw string muslin bags,  I have a few on hand or you can order them here.  
Cost $10

Be sure to check the dates, due to a lot of family activities  and the up coming holidays all the classes will be held the first of the month.

If you are interested in signing up for a class you can email me directly or call the store.

Once I have know who is attending, I will email a supply list to you.

Hope to see you soon.

Halloween projects with Photo Play Paper


Just in time for Halloween.  Tracy here from Idea Closet with some new projects.

Today we are featuring Matilda and Godfrey from PhotoPlay.


The first project is a two page scrapbook layout.  I loved using the stickers.  I added some green brads to complete the page.

Poison bottles are always fun for Halloween and these are perfect. They are made from 100% paper.  The lid comes off so you can fill them with all kinds of treats.
The files can be found in the Silhouette Store.
Instead of the labels I used the stickers to decorate the front of each bottle. 
Finish with a tulle bow.



Plastic Test Tubes are a great way to hand out treats or share with coworkers but you need something cute to hold them in.

The test tube holders can be found at 

Create a tag using one of the stickers included in the Photo Play collection and add another to the front of the box.

So cute!



And of course cards.
Cards are so easy to do with this kit.  I used scraps of paper, Journal Tags and stickers to create these one of a kind, handmade cards.

I hope you enjoy these fun Halloween projects.
Thank you for stopping by.
