Pretty To Go Boxes – With Silhouette CAMEO

april 006 copyI know I have said this before but I LOVE my Silhouette Cameo!  I am always trying to think of ways to use it.  When we have gatherings at our house we always have an abundance of left over’s.   Farm Boy buys way too much and I love that about him.We were having Easter at our house and I knew with 30 lbs. of ham (good grief) we would need some “to go boxes”.  I use these all the time – they are from the dollar store (3 for a $1).   See my little helpers!

So here’s where my gorgeous Silhouette Cameo came into play.  I used the basic frame pattern that came with the machine and then typed in the Cafe J.   I purchased adhesive backed pattern paper for die cutting machines at TJ Maxx.  Who knew TJ carried this stuff and it was cheap!

I used both parts of the cut.  I think I actually like the outline the best.  Cute, fast, inexpensive and makes your guests feel special.  If you don’t have a Silhouette Cameo using special stickers or stencils would be fun too.

Hum…maybe a restaurant called Cafe J?
