In the April/May issue of Simply Handmade we took a closer look at some of our favorite die cut machines. We reviewed machines from Sizzix, QuicKutz, Pazzles, Provo Craft, and Making Memories and now we are giving a Sizzix Big Shot and a QuicKutz Silhouette away to two lucky winners! To enter, leave a comment on this post telling us which of the featured favorite dies from the article is your favorite. We'll make it easy...they're on page 69. Next week we will share some tidbits about these awesome machines. In the meantime, grab a copy of the April/May issue and enter your comment by Friday, April 17th. Don't worry, we'll remind you between now and then - we wouldn't want you to forget!
P.S. You can earn an extra entry by posting on your blog about the contest. Just add a link to your blog in your comment!

«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 316 of 316I am eyeing the Sihouette. The chandelier is one of my faves! But really I will be happy with a new die cut machine!
I haven't dabbled much in the die cut machines (except for the cricut) so I loved reading the review of the diferent machines. The silhouette looks like it would be really nice. I like the option to create your own things with th software. The fonts are always my favorites for titles.
I would love a Silhouette! The fonts are really important to me. I love to print out or make my own titles for my lo's.
Thanks for the chance to win.
die-cuts and paper carfters were made for one another--I am partial to the deer die for the Silhouette---would be wonderful in a lay-out of our local deer "bucky" that crosses the yard in late afternoon.....
blessings and thanks

I love the silhouette! The frames are great!
i would love to win a silhouette. :)
wow! what an amazing prize!
I am really liking the look of the pop-up cake die for the Sizzix Big Shot! I've seen some fun ideas with it!
I would LOVE to have an electronic die cut machine to be able to cut various fonts!!! thanks so much for the chance!
I would love to have a Silhouette.
I would LOVE to have either . . . but a Sihlouette has been on my wishlist for quite some time now! :) My DH (YES, my hubby) won the QuicKutz LO contest at the Bellevue, WA convention back in Nov. '07 and got $1000 worth of QK. I'm still kicking myself for not picking out a Sihlouette. This giveaway is going to make someone's day! :)
The Sizix Pop-up Cake die is my favorite.
I would love to have the silhouette. Love all the endless possibilites with the new dies.
THanks for the chance to win one...
What a generous giveaway! I would like a Silhouette. I think it's so awesome that you can do true type fonts. Thanks so much for the chance to win!
I do not have a blog, my email address is cornfused99@hotmail.com
Thanks!
Charlotte R
I'll be real curious to hear the outcome if you tally results - I'm favoring the Silhouette as you can use fonts and graphics from your PC rather than buying cartridges!
Here's my link on my blog for another chance - thanx for the t'riffic blog candy opp!

Love the silhouette esp the chandelier diecut!! Thanks fo the chance to win.
I would love either, maybe leaning towards the silhouette. I love fonts,, and them constantly. Thanks for the chance to win this. I like the deer. They are such graceful creatures.
I Think to use your fave TT fonts would be awesome!
Sihloutte!
I have always been partiel to the Sizzix because they are easier to use with kids. I just felt safer with that machine. Plus the dies are so cute by seasons.
I have the original Sizzix machine, and while I am disappointed that it is not compatible with the new big dies, I love the fact that I can stick just about any other die cut or embossing template in it and it works. I have played with the cricut a few times, and think it is a wonderful machine for the most part, just out of my price range for the limited amount that I would use it.
Winning the Silhouette would be a dream come true. Fonts are usually my favorite!
all of the dies are great but the silhouette is my pick. you can do so much with a die cut machine i'm sure, i dont own one yet but possibly someday i'll burst out of my box
Oh my gosh!!!! The Silhouette would be awesome!!! It looks like you could do so much!!!!
Thanks for hosting such an awesome giveaway!
OH! I love the Sihlouette, and would love one!
Ok what's not to love. Hard to pick. Thanks for the chance to win.

I would love the chance to win the Silhouette. I've drooled over this little beauty since it came out :)
Thank you!
This giveaway is so generous! I love the Simply Handmade magazine and really appreciated the articles about the different die cut machines. I would love to have the Silhouette or the Quickutz, especially for the fonts that can be created.
I love the fonts so I have to say the Silhouette since it can cut any true type font as well!
I like the alphabets. Can never have enough of those.
I LOVE the butterfly die!!
I would love to win a Sihlouette!
Who wouldn't? I would love to be able to make so many fonts. What magnificent prize!!
Way cool - I have been wanting to get my hands on a die-cut machine! The new frames and chandeliers look awesome!
Silhouette and downloads and fonts...what more could a girl want (smile)?
I would love to win one for my sister, I already have mine and it favulosa, Thanks for the opportunity!
Angie
I would love a Silhouette! I have a Cricut and love it, but would enjoy the ability to cut a shape I like from another source and the true type fonts are too cool.
Lynn
I would love the Sihlouette!
I would LOVE to win the BIG SHOT, what a woderful prize you are giving away. I would like the big shot because I could even use bigger dies, they are awesome and another reason if I won this machine I would give my daugter my Sizzix because she is low income and cannot afford anything, seperated from hubby and living on 12 hr working days and it's not enough for her. I feel like crying every day for her. She also loves to scrapbook but can't afford much of anything. So I try to help her out .....but you know we are retired and it's hard on us too. SIGH. So that is why I'd love to win.
Connie Gage, punkyann@iserv.net
I'd love to win the silhouette. I watched the demo at Utube and it's amazing machine.
love the blog and will be watching
My first choice of course would be to win the Sizzix BIG SHOT, but if I miss that chance, the Sihlouette sounds like something I could really use. Both machines are incredible. I had to part with my Cricut Expression shortly after I purchased it because I was laid off of work and had to sell it to get some money to make ends meet. So if I could win one one of these prizes to start up my crafting hobby again, I would truly appreciate it.
Thank you for this opportunity, I truly appreciate it.
God Bless,
