It's a Cinco de Mayo Celebration!

...And not just because its Cinco de Mayo today. But because I got my new Silhouette in the mail. And I am so stinkin' excited to bust it open! For those that aren't familiar (how could you not be??), here's what they look like:

One of the first projects I'm going to do is this one I found for the bathroom is this one I found over at eighteen25

Happy Crafting!
