I would love to use this for my posters with my price lists. It would make me look so professional.

I would make tons of awesome things. But the one thing that stands out and makes me sooooooo excited is— T-Shirts for the BUDDY WALK. My son is 21 months old and has Down syndrome. I would LOVE to spread the word that they are more alike then different! 90% of people who find out they are having a child with Down syndrome abort. They have no idea on all the BLESSINGS they are missing out on. I want to spread the word!!!

What could I not do with the Silhouette!? The very first thing I would do is cover my home in vinyl decor...then glass etch, then use it for my preschool cut outs, oh and then I would have to try out those tattoos...the list goes on and on!
