Making Cricut Stencil Designs and Magnets

Your die cuts look great in your scrapbooks and on your handmade cards, but what if you could use them in your home, by making stencils for decorating your walls and accent furniture pieces  Guess what - you can!  All you need is the Cuttables Cricut Stencil material.

The stencil material comes in sheets of 12" x 24" and is backed with repositionable adhesive.

If the idea of making your own stencils using your Cricut machine appeals to you, you may be interested to know you can also use it to cut your own magnets.  The Cuttables Cricut magnet material is available in sheets of 12"x 12", and is perfect for making cheery magnets for your fridge, your home office, even your car!

Both require the use of the deep cut blade and housing (and of course, your machine), but this is an easy project that is loads of fun...
