Welcome to the Silhouette Party #2!

October 20, 2010 by Kellie

GIVEAWAY IS CLOSED!
I’m so anxious to see what you all have in store for us this week!  I was so inspired by last week’s silhouette projects.  You all can think up some creative stuff, I tell ya!

Let’s get started, shall we?

This week I did something extremely simple. In fact, it’s almost too simple, that I’m embarrassed.  But I truly love the outcome of them.  I’ve been wanting to do this project for 2 years!

I ordered these framed monogrammed Christmas ornaments from Pottery Barn Kids.  They’ve been waiting to hold something precious in them for almost 2 years.  (Isn’t that awful that it’s taken me so long???)
Well…
you guessed it~

Once again I used Loo-la-bee Simplicity’s tutorial, printed these up on the computer & stuck them in the frames.  EASY AS CAN BE!!!  Plus, I know without a doubt I will have these for years to come.
***please know, I am not trying to rush Christmas at all.  I love Fall, it’s my favorite.  But as most of you know, I’ve silhouetted my house-out to where there wasn’t much else left, other then to start on Christmas. 😉***

Let’s go ahead & have one more giveaway sponsored by BAG FULL of POSIES!

Your choice of one market bag you see above + a 3 letter monogram will be up for grabs for the GIVEAWAY!

    It’s adorable!! I want to try my hand at silhouettes but I don’t have any vinyl. I was thinking about just doing it with black craft paint and card stock. Think it would work??

    Now THAT’S adorable. We have frames for each year for Christmas. Of course I had to buy 36 so I could have matching ones for both boys for 18 years. Not that I’m crazy or anything…
    Love your idea!

    Kellie, the silhouettes are perfect for those ornaments!! I love it! I have the same one from PBK that I bought last year, still empty, I would love to do the same. Heck, I need to sit down and get some silhouetts done, they are so fallish to me. It’s easy to do right??
