my magic little machine, the Cricut personal - Part 1

In the article, in which I gave you my Christmas cake presented 2010, I even lifted one of my little secrets and written that I had cut the Matryoshka dolls on the cake using the Cricut.

Today I show you my magic little machine and its accessories, I work with. Purchased

I have the Cricut personal in the summer of 2009 directly in the U.S. for a very reasonable price, because at the time the dollar fairly weak and the euro was quite strong. However, I had to go to customs to pick up the machine from there, because I still had to pay the import tax. Overall, there remained approximately EUR 130.00 a favorable purchase ...

is important that a cartridge is on the machine, otherwise the machine will not buy more later and you have the cartridge individually. Meanwhile, there are
the Cricut cake, which is significantly more expensive than my Cricut. I Opinion, but worth it for someone who only makes cakes as a hobby, this expensive purchase not ...

The machine I've also have the software Sure Cuts A Lot (SCAL) and a blue Deep Cut Blade Housing bought. On the picture you see on the packaging without the green housing, that standard is personal in the Cricut.
Using SCAL can cut SVG files without having to buy additional expensive cartridges. However, it should be able to somewhat deal with the computer because there are some preparatory work is necessary if we as graphics and drawings on the net would like to convert into SVG's or want to make you draw sketches (like the matryoshkas) cuttable.

Instead of the supplied sticky cutting mats that are intended for the use of cardboard, I use paste flowers for cutting very thin plastic cutting boards or placemats. First I cut the handle on the size of the cutting board and then bear on the back with a waterproof pen that marks the original cutting mat. When cutting flowers paste is always scored the cutting board with, it shows quite clearly in the picture above. Tragically, this is not until now I always use or documents that I've used a few times. The cutting lines were taken at the top of this dahlia cake ...

also super practical, large zip-off bag, which I have once bought on ebay. In the match as the cutting surfaces completely clean and I keep it ready to cut decorative elements airtight. In the bags the motives remain resilient and can then later prima stick to the theme cake.

My first big project was with the Cricut cutting these stencils for the wedding cake that I made as competition entry for the Cake Show 2009 . The templates for the template I had prepared in Corel Draw and then converted into cuttable files. Cut the stencil from Mylar foil, which exist in the network eg in Airbrush Accessories stores.

I hope I have not made you curious?
write in a second article, I will soon be something for the cutting of fondant and flowers motif paste for pies, templates, cupcake wrappers etc. ..
