Get all kinds of crap stuck in the cutting blade. And on the mat. Check.
We made two sets of stationery for two of our Doctor loving cousins. This was a great way for us to learn the limits of the machine, settings, and efficient ways to design the images in the software. We've still got some kinks to work out though (mainly stopping the blade from tearing out the small bits), but the learning curve for the silhouette isn't as bad as I thought it might be. The best part is that once you have a design made, you just save it and bam! print out custom stationery whenever you feel like it.
Oh yes. I predict a long and loving and sometimes frustrating relationship with you, mr. cutty tool machine.
what a cool gadget! i'm going to show my husband, who spent NYE watching the doctor who marathon.
ReplyDeleteLove these! I suggest getting the spatula tool- it really helps to lift (slowly and carefully) intricate designs off the mat.
ReplyDeleteI totally wanted something like this when we were wedding planning. But I refrained. But I still want one! When do I cave? =)
