Dont Throw away Those Gift Boxes!!

[scrappingmelissa]

If you own a Cricut or other cutting systems, I just discovered the if you rip a piece of the gift box put it on your mat, Put on Multi cut and put pressure on High, YOu can cut out your shapes and alphabets!!!

YOu can also use cereal boxes but Gift boxes are better since they have pretty designs on them!!

wooohoo!

I rarely throw out those Gift boxes. Only because we use them again for Next Christmas.

It's a savings for us and other's in our family.

But now as far as using the cricut with them, I never thought about that.

Thanks for the information.

I swear that when I was on Joanne.com a couple of weeks ago, I saw a new cutter blade for the cricut that would cut chipboard. I thought, OOOH!, but didn't get it at the time.

Now I just went back to Joanne.com and don't see any such number.

Has anyone else seen ths new blade?

YOU DO NOT NEED IT, Just put your regular blade on Multi-cut.
