Anyone else have a Cricut??

[kristan]

I just made some vinyl wall art with mine! Supplies cost around $7! If I bought it from a place like Wonderful Graffiti it would have cost over $80!!

My daughter got a cricut for Christmas. Mind sharing what settings you used for cutting vinyl? I bought vinyl for making wall art, but I am not sure what setting to start it at so it doesn't cut through the back of the paper.... or did you do it so it cuts all the way through?

:)

It looks great! I'm planning on doing some vinyl cutouts for Paisey's room with my Cricut.

You want your settings all to be on 3, Speed, blade, and pressure.

Looks great :) I can't wait until we have a house so we can do things like that!

Liz you're my hero :hearts: Thanks!

[KMS]

Liz you're my hero :hearts: Thanks!

Yes! Thank ya!! I didn't know what settings to use either.

[kristan]

Yep, what Liz said! Those settings work perfect!


As for future projects...I have a few in mind!

I'm thinking of using this quote above our kitchen cabinets:

As for butter versus margarine, I trust cows more than chemists.

And this for the entry way:

Hospitality, n. The virtue which induces us to feed and lodge certain persons who are not in need of food and lodging.

or Dorothys famous quote: "there's no place like home" since we are both from Kansas!!


My parents just bought a limo so they want a "Midnight Train" decal for the back.

And then probably this quote over our bed in out bedroom:

Sometimes, right in the middle of an ordinary life, love gives us a fairy tale.

[FFC]

Awesome quotes!!! I want to put a quote on my living room wall - I'm not sure if the Cricut will make it wide enough but I'm going to give it a shot - it'll be in several pieces... so I'm not sure how that'll work out since I only have the basic Cricut and it only cuts up to 12"... we'll see.

I really wanna put the Footprints poem - or at least the last part of it - on my living room wall in black decal.... that'll probably be my start. Plus I wanna make some decals for our 4x4 club. Again, we have the length restrictions of the Cricut :irked: so we'll see how that works :)

[kristan]

The quote in the picture I posted was 3 inches tall and aprox 76 inches long. It took up three rows on my 12x24 mat.

I think the footprints poem would be awesome on a wall!!

[FFC]

Thanks! I wanna get an expression - or a cutter that doesn't have length restrictions... not sure yet which route to go. For now I'm stuck with my 9y/o's Cricut basic though :) :)
