Samples of Cameo cuttings...........
http://www.pbase.com/snap2it/image/139791158.jpg
This machine cuts like a dream!!! The frog, flower, poodle and pig are all what's called "print & cuts". Check out the perfect cut on the snowflake and it is only 1"!!! The media I used here is Bazzill smooth white cardstock. I've also cut American Craft Foil paper, GA Pacific and Michaels Recollections and they cut great! I've also cut poster board and I will soon try some cereal box! Someone has asked about glitter paper, but it's is very bad for digital cutters....should I need something glittered I will cut and then add the glitter. As I cut new, thicker media, I will post a photo of the cuttings here at the Toll & Product Talk at SCS!!! |
How lovely!

Those are very good cuts. I am thinking aobut a Silhouette Cameo in the future, so right now I am just researching. Have you cut these smaller more intricate items using Stampin' Up cardstock?

Thanks a lot, Pam. If your friend doesn't have SU cardstock, let me know and I will send you a few sheets. I mostly use and own SU that is why I ask about it.

If my SD wasn't so new and I had the extra money........sigh :)
fyi I've used my SD for SU CS and it cuts just fine, I would assume the Cameo would as well. |
All I can say is WOW! Looks like a great machine...maybe someday...

Pam--I am not in a hurry. And thank you so much for helping answer my question. Heather and Cat~~thanks for your thoughts, too. I have my Croicuts, which I love and wanted because I did not need a computer. But once I got SCAL, I realized that a machine can do so much more and looking at Pam's blog, kind of really makes me want a Silhouette Cameo.

Waiting for my Cameo to arrive. I have the CE and Personal cutter and am tired of the cartridges and PC. Here is a link to my favorite blog (Capadia Designs) and an article about cutting glitter paper.

I just ordered the cameo last night and have a question about the print and cut option. Do you have to use 12 x 12 paper or can you print and cut on 8 1/2 x 11 paper since I don't have a large format printer. Thanks, Angel

Thank you for showing these samples! I ordered a Cameo on Friday and can't wait to get it!!

How did the cutting of cereal box go? The one thing I don't like about my Silhouette is that it doesn't cut thicker stuff

Pam PS...I'm loving my Cameo |
I have gotten my cameo but don't have time to play with it until this weekend. I have been playing with the studio software to get familiar with it before I play.

I live on the island Bali,Indonesia and if something goes wrong, the machine is not easily returned. Happy cutting, Jogry/bali |
These are beautiful cuts. I have the Cricut and SCAL (before the law suits) and I can say it doesn't cut as nice detail as what you show here and on your blog. My Cricut is only a year old but when she dies, I want something like this as a replacement.

Pam~~The box cuts look very good, too. tfs all your info with us here.

I get to order mine on Monday, I am SO excited. I really like the flower that you cut out. It's so elegant. Did you get the small snowflake from silhouette? I've looked all over their site and I can't seem to find it. Do you think you could pm with the link to it? /looks adorable

These cuts are lovely! I love my Cameo too! It really cuts the most intricate designs so well. I have cut Papertrey cardstock with it which I have read on SCS is as thick as SU. It also cuts vellum and thin patterned paper well!
