Don’t think I am crazy, but I used my Silhouette machine this week to make some halloween decor. I know it’s a little early to be thinking about Halloween, but I saw the cute spider webs in the Silhouette Download store and I thought they would make a great background for a Halloween sign, so I figured why not! No worries, I’ll wait until October to display it on my mantle.
