Whammy Wednesday

So not all crafts come out beautiful on the first try. Most of mine don't. Tonight's craft was one of those.

I've been wanting to do some glass etching for awhile. I finally got the materials on clearance at Micheal's. Decided my first go round should be on a pie plate - simple, basic stuff.

Here are the vinyl letters stuck to the plate:



Etching cream etching away:


Final product:


Not happy with it at all. The letters wouldn't cut straight and I couldn't get them to line up nicely.

So I have decided what I want for my birthday. It's called a Silhouette. You plug it into the computer and it cuts all your letters and designs so they come out perfectly:


I have been dropping hints like mad to the hubby that I want one. It goes something like this:
I say "Hey babe?" He says "What?" I say "I want a Silhouette for my birthday."
Hopefully those hints aren't too difficult to decipher.

Well that's enough for me today. Bedtime!

Hope everyone had a good day.

Much Love,
