Silhouette Portrait Giveaway!

By

I am currently en route to a weekend of creative fun at SNAP! 2013, and I have to say that this little getaway has me feeling incredibly festive. How about a Silhouette Portrait giveaway to help celebrate??

Silhouette Portrait Giveaway :: PositivelySplendid.com

We’ll get to all of the details about the giveaway in just a minute, but first I wanted to share a quick project I completed yesterday in preparation for my trip to Salt Lake City using Silhouette adhesive vinyl, which happens to be the product featured in this month’s promotion.

I needed a roomy bag to carry along with me on my trip, and I found a great deal on a clearanced bag at Target in a sweet shade of cheery yellow. Although the bag was really cute as-is, I opted to add a custom vinyl monogram cut with my Silhouette to the front of the bag. This took me all of about 5 minutes from start to finish, but I absolutely love how it turned out!

Adhesive vinyl is one of my favorite mediums to work with, as it allows you to embellish just about anything under the sun: home decor, accessories, and more! I love that the vinyl here is a semi-permanent way to embellish this bag, so that if I change my mind later on, I can simply peel the design away.

If you are also a fan of Silhouette vinyl, or if you have always wanted to try your hand at creating something fabulous with it, you won’t want to miss this month’s promotion!

Be sure to use the code POSITIVELY when you shop to access the deals below!
