okay, can't help myself with the videos. but i got her really laughing in this one. she only laughs like this when she's extremely tired, mostly it only works if i scare her. but that's not what this post is about. i've been loving staying home and i have found a new love for scrapbooking. i'm really not that creative in the first place, but i think i have a pretty good eye for what's "in style" for all that crafty stuff. so i've spent a good chunk of time looking at ideas on archivers.com and other sites. my new thing to be looking at are electronic die cutting machines. i want one that can cut vinyl as wel as cardstock and paper, etc. i think i've found the one that i want: the quickutz silhouette (not the SD version, the original version). i found it online at cricut-craftsdirect.com for $120. the next cheapest price is on ebay/amazon for $150. it sells in stores for around $300-$350. does anybody have a cricut or other type of die cutting machine .... one that hooks up to your computer. the major downside for the cricut is that to get any type of different fonts/pictures you have to buy a "cartridge" that is $50-$100 apiece! so tell me what you think, i keep reading great reviews about the silhouette, i'm just worried about buying it from an online website. (who knows if they're reliable or not ... it is a lot of money to be spending and inputting credit card information on ...) let me know what you think/your experiences. i would also love to start a small business selling vinyl lettering and signs, etc. i can't wait to get one of these die cutting machines, can't stop thinking about it and looking online for more information!

Not sure about all the cutters out there, I bought my off ebay for like $250. Its worked well so far. I'd recommend selling your stuff (scrapbook stuff, vinyl, whatever) on etsy! Its worked for me!
