I must admit that my favorite Stampin' Up! tool is the Big Shot. I actually squealed when I read the announcement about it. I love all of the incredible projects that the Big Shot can help me with. My kids love to cut out Bears and dress them up. The fact that I can cut out 20 party favors in a matter of minutes is a huge perk for a busy Mom. The exclusive dies that Stampin' Up! offers are fabulous and so versatile for scrapbooking or card making.
My latest craze with the Big Shot is cutting out fabric with it. I am a little addicted to this new use of the Big Shot. I enjoy sewing but haven't done much over the past year or so. When I discovered all of the incredible projects I could do with fabric and the Big Shot, a whole new crafting world opened up for me. We recently purchased a new sewing machine since my old one bit the dust. I have been busy incorporating two of my favorite hobbies: sewing and the Big Shot!
Here is one of my latest projects. This was for a friend of my daughter's birthday present. I cut everything out using the Big Shot.
Isn't it adorable? A perfect, fun tote for a nine year old. I also added a fun headband I embellished using fabric and the Big Shot but you will have to wait for another day to see that.
