Gina,
There have been some posts around about using die-cuts for PC bridal showers, for the bride's wish list items. If I were you, I'd keep the Xyron for just that. Even if you cut them for clustermates, and charge them for paper (and add a little for your time and trouble). Then you wouldn't have to justify it to DH, either.
Just a thought.

 

[ginamkiely]

Thats not a bad idea Ann, AS ALWAYS you come up with a good one. However I have the Sizzix Machine as well and for the amount of time i've gotten to put into scrapbooking lately I don't need both. But I will do that though with the Sizzix maching, THANKS!

Did you not like the xyron. I am just getting back into scrapbooking and dont know much about the cutting machines out there. The scrapebook store here in town sells the xyron. Is it pretty flexible about what you can cut out...I mean are there lots of different types of things you can cut out....letters, graphics, ect.?????? What about size...are there a variety of sizes of things????

Any tips would be great

Andrea,
Buy the cricut

Andrea,
Buy the cricut

Thanks!!!! Why do you like this one????

 

[ginamkiely]

i don't know much about the cricut but i think there are more options for size and printing but i also thought the cartridges were more expensive. i could be wrong. i like the xyron i haven't used it much lately though so i was going to get rid of it but i changed my mind. i used it the other day to make a star to put in my appetizer caddy that says avail sept 1st $60 with 12 plates and i loved how it came out so its making me want to start using it again. lol

you can cut things in 3 different sizes and there are a lot of differeny options about graphics. I think this machine is more economical

Could you PM me about what books you have for your Xyron? I have one but have not been able to get books. I love it and only scrapbook 1 day a month. I am almost done with my son's book that I have been working on for 3 years but didn't really get anywhere until I met my new CM consultant who put me on the fast track to getting done. I should be done in 3 months and plan on getting my daughter's done by next April (her birthday).

Thanks!

BTW I love the cricut too, but my Xyron was a gift from my husband and if I knew he was thinking about getting a machine for me I would have told him to get the Cricut.

I HATE my Xyron!! I think it is a piece of junk! You have to replace the sticky pad that holds the paper so often it isn't funny! I can't get thick cardstock or thin vellum to stick, so they peel up while it it still cutting and either don't cut the shape or rip it all apart.

I love that you can have different books with different fonts, and that you can have 3 different sizes of letters/shapes, but if they don't cut out all the way or if you have to do it 2 or 3 times a letter it just isn't worth it!!

I am thinking of selling mine and investing in chipboard letters, LOL!

 

[Teresa Lynn]

Actually, its my daughters but we love the different fonts and designs you can cut with the cricut, it is very easy to use and I love the option to increase the sizes.
i haven't ever looked at the xyron, but knew i didn't want a sizzix

 

[Teresa Lynn]

Walmart sells the cartridges now.

 

[ahammons]

I'm a slacker, and still haven't started my oldest's scrapbook (he's 3! lol). I have the book, but haven't started it yet. DH keeps teasing me about it, so I'm determined to start scrapbooking again and get it up-to-date by the time he gets home next year. I've seen one of the cutting machines at walmart, but I don't remember the name... anyone know which one they carry?

 

[gilliandanielle]

I think Walmart has Sizzix and just started carrying the Cricut

 

[ahammons]

Thanks, I'll have to take another look next time I'm there. I'm sure I'd get a lot of use out of it... I'll just have to convince DH! lol

 

[gilliandanielle]

How big can you cut with the cricut? The Xyron (and I think the Sizzix too) has such a small cutting surface (4x4 inches with the xyron) so I can't do connected titles or more than a few small letters at a time.

 

[Teresa Lynn]

I don't remember the size dimensions it is now sold at JoAnns fabrics, michaels, hobby lobby and wal mart. Michaels ws the first oen to sell it and they have remained the most expensive.

 

[gilliandanielle]

It is a pretty big machine- do you know if it at least cuts larger than 4x4?

 

[ginamkiely]

I can't get thick cardstock or thin vellum to stick, so they peel up while it it still cutting and either don't cut the shape or rip it all apart.

i'm with you on this, i hate that you can't get thicker cardstock in it too!!

I don't have Cricut yet but my friend does. I plan on getting the bigger version that was just released recently. It's big enough to use a 12 x 12 sheet of paper in it. I haven't tried any of the other versions out there but really like the Cricut!

Walmart does carry the Cricut (the first version)

 

[missydivine]

Someday I will have time, space to get one.

I just love my Cricut! The new expressions is really nice too, but it is expensive. Having a machine has really sped up my scrapping, and made it more creative too. You can check out Cricut.com for more info - they have an awesome community too!
