Electronic Die Cutting Machines

If you're a creative person, chances are you've wanted to create something with your hands. Whether it's making a costume for a play, knitting an afghan for your best friend, or designing your own greeting card (and then mailing it), there's no better feeling than putting something tangible into the world that you made yourself.

But what if you had all the tools and materials at your disposal? What if there was a machine that could do the work of actually creating the craft? And what if that machine could make it easier?

Electronic die cutting machines are just such machines. They can cut out any shape of paper without any specialized equipment needed at all. The only things you need is glue and scissors!

It's no secret I am a huge fan of the Brother Scan and Cut. I use mine almost everyday. There are many different machines on the market such as Cricut machines, or Silhouette machines. I'm sure there are more and there will be a model for everyone.

The best part is that electronic die cutting machines are relatively easy to use and let you get started on making crafts right away—you don't need any experience or special skills!

Here are a few ideas for projects you can try:

Greeting Cards

Boxes

Box Frames

I'm sure you can think of lots more. Let's just say I think no craftroom should be without one.

Until Next Time

Happy Crafting.

Christmas Mini Album Page 1

Today I have done the first page of my mini album. It's a simple gatefold page. I cut the page to 7.5x7.5 ins. The two side flaps are cut at 5.5x5.5 ins and scored at 1.5 ins on the short side. I stuck the flaps at each side of the page to form the gatefold. I chose complimentary papers in traditional Christmas colours from rhe Classic Christmas Collection by Hunkydory. I cut all of the papers .25 of an inch smaller than the pages and flaps to give a border all of the way round. If you are using magnet closures remember to place them before you add your decorative papers. If you would like to see a video showing how I made this album page here is the link page 1 I have also done a short video showing how I add my album pages which you can find here adding pages to album Until next time Happy Crafting

Christmas Mini Album

As part of my Christmas in July Event I have today started work on a new Mini Album The papers I am using for the Album are The Classic Christmas Collection from Hunkydory. I have the Hunkydory at Home usb so I can print as many sheets as I need which is a good thing. I started with the cover today. The album is 8x8ins so I cut a piece of gold mirri card 7.75x7.75ins to go on the front. I then cut a piece of paper from the Collection 7.5x7.5ins and stuck it on top of the mirri card. I chose a topper to match the paper to add to the front. It's worth adding here that I cut the topper out on my scan and cut. All of the Hunkydory at Home toppers have lines that in the original die cut toppers were where you popped out the different layers. If you scan your sheet and use the direct cut function your machine will recognise these lines as cut lines and cut the toppers out perfectly. I added handmade paper poinsettias and Holly leaves that I had in my crafty stash. Now it just has to dry ...
