Sold 4 cards this week :) and a question?

I've made £11 in the past week selling cards. The last time I sold cards I couldn't even get £1.50 for them.
2 were commisioned cards too and keep getting asked do I have a website
I had forgotten how much I love making cards

I'm just wondering though is there a die cutter thing that you can connect to pc that will cut out the shapes/designs that you have printed like if you print a sheet and then put in the die cutter to print out? have no idea about that sort of thing but it would make things soooo much easier

Hi Jo.

The CraftROBO will do what you describe. It's an electronic cutter. I've got the Craft ROBO CC330-20 which works with Print & Cut (the Craft ROBO Lite CC300-20 doesn't). It works with different software - I stick to the RoboMaster software that came with it. Just put in .jpg images, use the various tools to put in the cutting lines, tell it to print Registration Marks when it prints to my normal printer, then put the printout into my CraftROBO and it reads the Registration Marks first to make sure the cutting head is in the right place before it goes ahead and cuts out where you've indicated.

I've bought many Cut & Print sheets from CUP, as well as ones that are just cutting files.

As well as the information on the Graphtec website you can allso see lots of video clips on .

There are other electronic cutters out there as well, and even a Pro version of CraftROBO, which I believe can cut bigger items or thicker card.

Congratulations on your card sales. Wish I could sell some more of mine.

GG

Well done Jo!

I haven't sold any hand made cards for a few years - its also nice to see that people are starting to pay more for them as when I did sell them, people wanted them as cheaply as possible!
