Hey I’m Sarah and I blog over at Creative Ramblings. I’m excited to be here sharing a fun gift I created using my Silhouette. If you like what you see stop by and join me on my creative journey.
Earlier this year Little Lady and I were searching for the perfect gift for Daddy. She had 2 things in mind 1) he likes coffee and 2) he likes gum balls. Her original thought was to go to the mall and buy him a cup of coffee along with some gourmet gum balls from the candy store. Before we made that trip she spotted a bag of gum balls at Target and we happened upon a clear glass mug on clearance. Perfect gift for Daddy!
To dress the gift up a bit I decided to etch Daddy's initials into the mug using my Silhouette. Not really a project a 3-year-old can help with, but she did help in picking out the font and of course filling the mug with gum balls.
When I bought my Silhouette last year the glass etching kit was included! It wasn't something I needed, but I have used it several times and love it.
The videos and instructions from Silhouette America are really simple and easy to follow, I tend to do exactly what they say and my projects seem to come out nicely.

Daddy loved his gift! She was so proud to give him something she picked out and worked so hard on.
