I’m keeping this simple today because I’m headed to Peachtree City, GA for my 3rd All Things Silhouette Conference!!! Rather than attending classes this time around, I’m volunteering as a staff member and couldn’t be more excited. It’s always fun to get together with my Silhouette buddies and I know we’re going to have a…
I’ve been a Silhouette Studio user for many years and keyboard shortcuts have become second-nature to me. When I’m teaching, however, I notice many students use the drop-down menus instead. Frequently this is out of habit, but more often it’s because they simply aren’t aware that a shortcut exists. Once you become familiar with shortcut…
Here in Texas, you’d think it was still summer judging by the thermometer. Except for the occasional cool day, temperatures have been in the high 80s and low 90s. But when the Creative Cutters group got together for our October meeting, fall was definitely in the air! Each time we meet, I’ve been excited to…
What could be more fun for a kid than being able to wear a shirt featuring a design of his or her own creation? I’ve been wanting to turn one of my grandson’s drawings into a t-shirt design for some time and when he came to visit recently, I finally got the chance. It’s a…
Last week was a busy one for sure, but lots of fun because I got to spend time with my daughter, son-in-law, and grandchildren and help them move into their new home. After unpacking boxes for a few days, we took a break and us “girls” headed to Pinners Texas. Never having attended before, we…

In a nutshell, updates are fixes and enhancements to the program and there’s never a charge for them. Upgrades, on the other hand, are different levels of software and each level adds to the…
It’s a fun week for sure when it includes an evening spent with the Creative Cutters group! This was only our second meeting and over half the group was there for the first time – once again a good mix of new Silhouette owners, those who’ve owned their machine for a while, and a few…
In my last post, I showed you how to make inserts for a fun Muffin Tin Toss Game. As promised, I’m back to share with you the secret for cutting the laminated inserts while keeping the edges heat-sealed. For durability, I laminate almost everything I create for the classroom. Over the years, I’ve used self-adhesive…
I’ve created many things with my Silhouette over the years, but one of its main uses has been for classroom projects. In fact, my role as a Bible class teacher is what led me to purchase my first Cameo. Like most teachers, I’m always on the lookout for ways to make learning enjoyable and one…
Without a doubt, the highlight of my week has been the launch of the Creative Cutters group. What a great group of ladies (and even a couple of men 🙂 ) were on hand to get the party started! All experience levels were represented – those who’d never heard of a Silhouette before, brand-new machine…
