Scrapbook Artists Love Cricut Machines
A Cricut machine does not require a computer interface. The Cricut die cutters are free standing machines that produce precision cut designs in card stock paper. These Cricut die cutters are wildly popular among paper crafters and scrap book artists. Various designs are selected by cartridges to allow scrapbookers and artists to create designs within a selected theme.
Cricut machines offer several cartridge designs including birthday themes, patriotic themes, and wedding themes. These cartridges all work among the different Cricut machines. The most popular machine is the Cricut Expression, followed by the Cricut and the Cricut Create.
The Cricut personal electronic cutter costs about $300 and comes bundled with the "George" cartridge, which is full of fonts and basic shapes including blackout, shadow, silhouette, charm, slotted, and sign. This cartridge makes accents in 12 sizes.
The Cricut Expression retails for around $500.00. It uses the same cartridges as the Cricut personal electronic cutter, but also has the ability of cutting on a 12"x24" mat, making it perfect for large format projects.
The Cricut Create is a lot like the Cricut Expression, in that it cuts shapes and letters in a larger format. This machine is typically packaged with the "Don Juan" starter cartridge. The cartridge offers sever fonts, shapes, and creative designs to get you started with your scrapbook project. The various shapes include shadow, stitched, marquee, puzzled, and under pressure designs. The Cricut Create package retails for around $400.
There are several reasons why a Cricut is a great investment for those who love scrap booking. One cartridge, when adjusted to a variety of different sizes and paper choices, can make countless different looks. For those who make quite a few layout titles, using a Cricut can eventually be more economical than buying sheet after sheet of alphabet stickers to make one layout title.
The coolest feature of the Cricut Machine is that it can be used by school aged children to design projects and reports for school. The possibilities are endless with the Cricut Machine. While offering so many cartridges and each one making around 250 designs in 12 size, there is not much you can't do with a Cricut machine. They are perfect for scrapbooking, artistry, school projects, and sign making.
