Reply to "I Want to Buy a Cricut Die-Cutting Machine to Make My Own Stencils."

I have the Cricut air and Love it. Some tips I have learned: I have the delicate cutting mat and a fine blade and cut a variety of designs out of wafer paper to use for cookies. I only use this mat and blade for food items. For acetate, you can add your own material to the software based on the thickness of the acetate and I use a deep cut blade for mine. I use a 4 cut for the thick plastic like Julia's, but a 2 cut works on regular acetate.  Works great! Julia's stencils are actually on a thicker plastic than most other stencils you can buy, so are definitely worth the purchase, but it's great to be able to make custom ones at home ��
