Hey ladies and gents. I have a Cameo but have found lately that I need to cut my pictures in circles. Doing so is cumbersome on the cameo and takes more time than I wish to commit. So tell me about your manual circle cutters. Which one do you have? Do you love it? Does it cut perfect circles in various sizes? I wouldn't need more than probably 6 inch circles I would think. Recommend away please!

crystalb - I have the Creative Memories Circle cutters that I don't use. If you want I'll gift the circles and the cutter blades to you. Since I switched to digi I don't use them. And to be honest I prefer my Coluzzle. I don't have the cutting mat, but any self healing mat would work. If you're not familiar with they system it's this => CM Circle CuttersIf you want them send me a message with your address. I won't be able to send them until Tuesday, though. SM |

I also prefer my Coluzzle but I have never heard anyone else say it. Not a fan of the CM circle cutters. |

I reach for my CM circle cutters when a punch won't work and using machine is more effort than I want to deal with. I think the more I have used the CM the better I get.

I love my CM circle cutters! I even got to use the oval ones recently for some birthday decor!

CM is my favorite as well. When they went out of business I bought extra blades so I'm set for a while. I'd go ahead and take that generous poster up on her offer.

I like my Martha Stewart circle cutter. I bought it at Michael's. It's easy to use and doesn't take up a lot of room. If I need really small circles, I use a punch.

I have and use the CM circle cutter system too. I know Stampin' Up! has Circle Framelits that come in a variety of sizes to use with Big Shot or Cuttlebug.

I have a circle saved on my Gypsy and simply size it and cut it quickly on my Cricut. That seems easiest to me though. Doesn't take me any time at all.

Thank you everyone for the recommendations. I have the cameo but sometimes it is just too much fuss for a single circle, especially since DS LOVES to push the buttons on it so I try to keep it covered and asleep when he is awake. He is the typical 2 year old boy LOL!

I use the CM system, but only because I can't justify purchasing the Martha Stewart cutter. It's similar to one I used to have that broke. I loved it.

Another vote for the CM circle cutters. When you are trying to cut our photos it is perfect for seeing exactly where to cut. I have a Cameo but haven't attempted to cut out photos with it. Of course I am going to be in trouble when my blades give out as I never bought extras.

I also still love my CM circle cutters……..although I've just recently purchased the SU circle framelits but haven't used them yet.
