What exactly is a xyron machine?

How does it work? I've gone to the Joanns.com to check them out, because everyone was using the 50% off coupon, but I'm such a visual person, I guess it's not clicking for me. From what I understand, it just makes your paper into a sticker right? All that money to make a sticker? What am I missing??? ~Pam

As a stamper I love to be able to stamp images on a sheet, run it through the xyron then cut them out now I have little stickers and so much easier and less messy than putting glue on all my little pictures. Also its great for hiding glue on vellum and its nots just a sticker machine, you can get cartridges to do magnets and laminate. Its quick and easy. If you like the pens, making sticky back paper with your xyron works great cause the adhesive is extra strong. I love mine, I use it a lot and the cartridges really do last a long time!!

It takes any picture, stamp, image and turns it into a sticker or magnet. I have the sticker stuff and the magnet stuff. I love making magnets with it. Its a neat little machine for all kinds of projects!

Check out the Pearl Ex with Acetate cards in the gallery. That's another use for a Xyron machine. I love mine!
