My first project with the Silhouette would be glass etching but with so many applications it can do, I would be hard pressed to figure out the next thing to do. Would love to do a wrap for canning jars (jams, jellies and salsa) that I will be giving to friends and family for Christmas. How cool would that be? Thanks for the chance to win it.
