I started reading about craft cutting machines on MakeItLoveIt and was intrigued. The fact that it can cut fabric as well as vinyl and cardstock convinced me I should have one!

So I bought one and it arrived a couple of weeks ago. I unpacked it, and following the instructions I loaded the software then connected the cutter to make sure it all worked.
Vicious looking hook!
Then I sorted out my tools. I have a big blue scraper, a small black scraper, a hook, a spatula and a pick me up. I also have the blue fabric blade and the sketch pen starter pack together with a sample pack of vinyl and cardstock.
Not gathering dust!
I read the manual, then turned it off and fitted the dust cover.
It has sat there ever since.
I really don’t know what to try! I don’t do scrapbooking, but I love the idea of using it for label, cards and applique motifs. I wondered if I could use it to produce the Sons of Anarchy logo as an applique for my other half, who is a big fan, to put on the cigar box guitar bag I made for him?
Anyone else had this sort of writer’s block Answers on a postcard… no, come to think of it,
