Rhinestone #1 Shirt and Silhouette SD Giveaway!!

***This Giveaway is CLOSED!!***

Yep! Your read that right! We are giving away a Silhouette SD today! I am so excited for one of you! You are going to LOVE this machine!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE my machine... I have not decided on a name for it yet... but it will have one... I am leaning toward Skyla or Lainey

Here is one of the things that I made with mine this week {Along with the Rhinestone starter kit}

It is my daughter's 1st birthday today!!!  So I made her this special shirt to wear at her 1st birthday party.  Cute and girly!

You will need:

Silhouette SD machine

Rhinestone starter kit

T-shirt

Tulle (optional... but totally worth it!)

First I am going to show you how I worked with the rhinestone picture to add MORE bling to it

here is what the #1 looked like to begin with (you can find it in the Silhouette store for .99) 

Cute -but I wanted there to be more bling so I added more dots for more rhinestones!

First I selected the #1 shape and right clicked on it.  Then I selected ungroup.

Now all your little dots should be separated. 

Now select one of your little dots (do NOT resize!!!) and right click and select duplicate.  This will give you another dot... repeat for at least 12 more dots

Move your dots inside the #1 to fill it in

Now we are going to group them back together so that it is easier to move around. 

Select all the dots (I just make a rectangle around them with the mouse) and right click, now select Group.  Now all the dots should be stuck together in one big group! 

Now send it to your silhouette... no need for the carrier sheet!  Make sure the RED tip is in!

Peel off your blue backing and make sure all the holes are out... Silhouette suggests you do this in a quick swipe... but I had to pick out some holes... not a big deal!  Put it on the cardboard sheet.  Dump some rhinestones on it and use the brush to move them around to fill in most of the holes.  Use your Pick-Me-Up tool to fill in the rest of the holes and remove extra rhinestones   

Put your clear adhesive transfer sheet over all the rhinestones and make sure the all stick. 

Move it to your shirt. Place a piece of fabric over it and iron for 30-45 seconds.  

Remove the clear adhesive transfer sheet  and turn your shirt inside out and iron on the back to pull the glue through. 

Ta-da!  Totally cute 1st birthday shirt! 

Of course, you could put any number on it and it would be SUPER cute!

HERE is the tutu tutorial
