Un-Boxing The Silhouette Cameo 2 Bundle from Amazon

Here's a video of me un-boxing the Silhouette Cameo 2 Bundle I purchased from Amazon.



It was extremely easy to get set up and make my first cuts. I immediately dove in to using the included PixScan Mat, which I forgot to show in the video.

Even though I haven't had much time to play with this electronic die cutting machine yet, I can already tell you that it is pretty amazing. I will be trying to cut various materials in the near future to find out exactly what it can handle. It cut my 140lb Watercolor Cardstock with no hiccups. The machine is not what I would consider quiet, but it is quieter than my SLICE Machine. It is pretty light for how large it is and that is nice since it does not have a permanent spot on my desk and I have to slide it in and out of a little cubby in my IKEA Kallax shelving unit.  ( LOVE that shelving unit with desk attached by the way!). When I first got the machine out of the box I actually dropped it from maybe 1-2 ft onto my desk. I was terrified! However, it still works just like it should. I'm considering getting the Silhouette Designer Edition of Silhouette Studio to unlock more design potential, but I haven't made any final decisions on that quite yet.

I'll be back with some videos of the PixScan mat!

Welcome to the Craft Review

Here's what you can expect to find here:

 Honest and thorough reviews of art and craft related items such as :

    a. Tools

    b. Media

    c. Designers

    d. Companies

    e. Stamps 

    f. Dies and Embossing

    g, anything else art or craft related I want to review! 

I wanted to start this website because I have an online store, Intoxicating Arts, where I sell what I consider "the good stuff". I only carry items that I would or have personally used. This review website will allow me the chance to show you an in depth review of some of the items I carry in my store as well as other items that I purchase off of Amazon for my personal use but do not sell in my store. Occasionally I may link to other websites that sell products I love and are not available for purchase in my store or Amazon. 

My rating system will be based off of ease of use, value for your money (which includes quality and uniqueness), fun factor, and how often I would use the product. This rating system may change if I find a better way to fairly evaluate products. 

I hope you'll join me for my very first post which will be the un-boxing of a brand new Silhouette Cameo 2 Bundle!
