The original Distress Inks. I keep trying and I am not feeling it. All other inks I have great success with. I am not into DI's. I do like the Oxides but my original Distress Inks makes me side eye my Oxides too. I think the DI look is pretty but not for me.

I was intimidated by the pen feature on my Cricut Explore Air 2, so I didn't even try it for over a year. A friend tried hers at a crop recently. It's so easy! Of course now I had to buy more pens... I popped that inner part of pen adapter out so I can use any Brand pen I want. I just used a rubber pen cushion slice down one side and put it on whatever pen I want to use. it acts as the inner portion of the pen holder. Just slip a popsicle stick under where the pen tip will come out. Let the tip of the pen touch the popsicle stick then shut the pen holder latch. Remover the popsicle stick. The pen is in proper depth position to write. Your good to go. Just to let you know brush pens do not work. I know that from experience. It cost $2 at the dollar store make that modification. I found this hack on YouTube. |

Gelatos. Bought the whole big set, haven’t cracked them out once. Yeah, I relate to this. I think I used them twice but that's it. |

I spent my evening tonight playing with my scan n cut. Now that I know how to use it, I am trying to figure out how I can rearrange my craft space so I can have it out at all times.

I posted above ^^^^^. before reading everyone’s and just went to read what everyone said. Lol Ok y’all. Get those cameos out. I just started using mine again I hadn’t used it for 2 1/2 years. I remember having quite a bit of learning curve with it but, since I took it out again Saturday it’s been easy peasy. Give it a try |

My Big Shot. My mom, sister and I each have one. The other day my mom suggested we try to find someone to meet us at her apartment and show us how to use them.
My my room is almost ready for me to scrap again. Then I will be able to work with it.

My DH bought me a 3D printer for Christmas in 2017 (?)... Yeah, I hope there's not an issue with it, because I have never used it. Maybe after we're settled at the new place.

Any electronic die cutter. I am a slow learner that this is really not my thing. Thank goodness for resale, even if I have lost money it is still better than having the machine sit and taunt me. I DO NOT enjoy using them.

I just started using mine again I hadn’t used it for 2 1/2 years. I remember having quite a bit of learning curve with it but, since I took it out again Saturday it’s been easy peasy. Give it a try I have had two Silhouette Cameos, the original, and the Cameo 3 and both times it took me several months to set it up and figure out how to use them. It's one of those things that I really have to commit myself to spending considerable time doing because it's a PITA. I also tend to get frustrated doing tasks that turn into "when you give a mouse a cookie" tasks. The first attempt at setting up the Cameo 3 with bluetooth I discovered that my PC did not have bluetooth and got angry, walked away, and made margaritas. The software had also changed so much from the time I had last used the old one that dealing with learning the Cameo 3 was almost like starting all over again. |
