Cuttlekids Machine

by

After looking at this product for months on sale at Wal-Mart for $15 and just waiting for the price to drop (I love great bargains!), it finally did. I had wanted to get the CuttleKids shape maker ever since we first saw it. I thought it would be a fun toy to play with. So, when Wal-Mart finally marked them down to $7.50, I bought one.

Some of the die cuts for the machine were also marked down, so I picked up a few shapes that I thought I might could use in scrapbooking and other projects. Although the recommended age is 7, I’m hoping that my three-year-old can use it since this can be something we can do together. Plus by making our own die cuts we can make our own craft projects to either do on a rainy day or share with our play group.

I had almost given up hope of these little machines ever coming down in price. One thing I hate is to buy something on sale and then see it further marked down especially when I’m buying something I know very little about but want to give a try.

Anyway, I can’t wait to create our first die cut with it. It should be fun.

About Creative Mom Cafe

Creative Mom Cafe is the place to come and try your hand at something you thought you could never do or to get an idea you would never have had on your own. Most of the ideas I bring to 'the Cafe' are simple and for the creativity-challenged but every now and then I will throw in a doozie for those of you who are waiting for it. Every month will have a theme and all ideas that month will tie in to that theme. It may be fun recipes for kids, a scrapbooking idea, an organizational tip or anything else that is in my head that month. I invite you to send your photos of projects you have done and at the end of the month I will highlight one or two "fan" projects! Thanks, stop in the Cafe as often as you can!
