Make a Simple Gift Box with Silhouette Studio® Designer Edition software, a new Silhouette Promotion & a Silhouette CAMEO® Giveaway

This post is brought to you by Silhouette.

You know when a post has that loooooong of a title BIG things must be going on over here on the blog! ha! 😉 Well, I am not going to disappoint today! 🙂 Silhouette is launching a brand new promotion today centered all around the amazing Silhouette Studio® Designer Edition software.
I’ve told you about the Silhouette Studio® Designer Edition software before, & I love it! The biggest difference is that the Silhouette Studio® Designer Edition software allows you to use your own images & shapes in addition to what’s available in the Silhouette Online Store. You can also find tons of free SVG files online & cut them out with your Silhouette. So fun! So keep reading to see how I did that to make this simple gift box, get the details of this month’s Designer Edition Promotion & enter to win your very own Silhouette CAMEO®! 🙂

Before I get to this simple gift box tutorial let me fill you in on this month’s Silhouette Designer Edition Promotion that runs from today until February 14th. When you shop here & use the code GINGERSNAP you can get the following deals & bundles. If you already own a Silhouette this is an awesome time to upgrade to the Silhouette Studio® Designer Edition software because it is 40% off using the code GINGERSNAP. Yay! 🙂

Here’s everything in black & white. 😉

1. The Silhouette CAMEO®, The Silhouette Studio® Designer Edition Software, the glitter collection sketch pens, and the metallic collection sketch pens for $269.99 ($94 in savings)

2. The Silhouette Portrait™, The Silhouette Studio® Designer Edition Software, the glitter collection sketch pens, and the metallic collection sketch pens for $129.99 ($114 in savings)

3. 40% off the Silhouette Studio® Designer Edition Software*!

*Silhouette Studio® Designer Edition contains all the same functionality as Silhouette Studio® plus enhanced designer features including:

Ability to open, manipulate, and cut SVG files
Rhinestone tools to convert designs into rhinestone templates and create your own rhinestone designs
Sketch tools to convert designs into several styles of sketchable art
Creative knife tools to allow you to clip designs using different patterns
Enhanced eraser set to modify designs with more precision
Built-in ruler and guide lines for precise alignment and drawing

Now I’m going to show you how easy it is to cut any SVG file with your Silhouette Studio® Designer Edition software. First I found this simple box file for free HERE. Then I downloaded it to my computer, & then I opened it up in the Silhouette Studio® Designer Edition software. Then I clicked the Cut Style button. (This is the bottom of my box.)

Once you have the Cut Style menu open click on the Cut button. Then you’ll see a red outline on your shape. Now you are ready to send it to your Silhouette. 😉 Your Silhouette will cut wherever the red lines are. (This is the lid of my box.)

Then I assembled my box. I used some twine to tie on a tag. So cute! With hundreds of SVG files available for download across the web the possibilities are endless! With the Silhouette Studio® Designer Software you could even design your own creations! So fun! 🙂

I am so excited to be giving away a Silhouette CAMEO® today!
Winner will be announced & contacted on Monday! So hurry & enter! 🙂

Giveaway is open to U.S. residents only. Good luck!
