Young House Love » Giveaways » Fab Freebie: Cameo Appearance

Fab Freebie: Cameo Appearance

***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries – see who won below!***

Random.org cut its way through over 6,000 entries and picked our winner as… Stephanie (who would love to have a few hundred laughs with Zach Galifianakis). Congrats!

I believe it was the renowned Dave Coulier who once immortalized the words “cut it out” on Full House… but I don’t quite think Uncle Joey had a clue what potential those words could hold when it came to the Silhouette CAMEO digital cutter. You guys may have seen Silhouette cutters mentioned around the blogosphere before (our friends Jessica at How About Orange and Nicole at Making It Lovely did some cool projects with theirs). Now Silhouette has released a larger and quieter model called the CAMEO. Basically any design that you can create on your computer can be printed and intricately cut out on all sorts of papers. We haven’t tried it out ourselves, but there are tons of idea starters on the Silhouette Pinterest boards.

Silhouette Cameo Giveaway

  • PRIZE: A Silhouette CAMEO digital cutter (worth $299) and a $40 starter kit
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “CAMEO ME” and tell us…
  • BONUS QUESTION: …what famous person you’d pick to make a cameo in your life? Would you love to meet Matt Damon standing in the checkout line behind you? Or have Kate Middleton compliment your outfit when she passes you on the street? Or does your dream encounter involve a surprise serenade by NKOTB?
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, October 26 at 8pm EST (or at 10,000 entries)
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
  • PRIZE SHIPS: The 50 United States
  • DISCOUNT: Use the code YOUNGHOUSE here when purchasing your own CAMEO and get the starter kit for free (a $40 value)
  • USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday as an update to this post. That’s right, come right back here on Thursday for the announcement of our winner. Good luck…

Note: We weren’t paid or perked for hosting this giveaway, we just do ‘em to thank you awesome folks for stopping in. See our Giveaway FAQ page for more info. Pics courtesy of Silhouette America, How About Orange and Making It Lovely.

    I’d like Derek Hough to make a cameo in my life as I walk down the street, then he invites me to dance and we wow a gawking crowd of onlookers. Of course, I also develop amazing ballroom dance skills in a matter of seconds… small detail.

    CAMEO ME. Tina Fey. First we’d share embarrassing stories about our lives. Then we’d make a movie about the time in high school when that guy that I wasn’t really interested in came to my house super early on a Saturday (10 am) and caught me in unsexy PJs with toothpaste on my face to dry out my zits. All of this after my unsuccessful escape attempt which routed me through the kitchen on the way to the garage where I slipped on the freshly mopped floor, cracked my tail bone, and got yelled at by my mom. True story.

    CAMEO ME!!

    I have SO been eyeing this machine- I have always wanted one of my own! I already even have my own pinterest file devoted to all of the projects I could do with it!!

    As far as who I would like to make a cameo in my life… probably would be Arne Duncan. The current secretary of Education. As a Math coach, I have so much to discuss about current Math Education for our youngest learners. I really want there to be better advocates out there for Math, Arts, and Sciences for ages pre-k through grade 2…

    CAMEO ME! Although it would require necromancy at this point, I would have loved to have crossed paths with Johnny Cash. Just a simple passing by on the street met with a nod would suffice.
