I've been a through and through Slice gal for four years. A couple of years ago I won an old red Sizzix when the monthly crop I used to attend had to stop meeting, and they raffled off their supplies. Then a couple of months ago I bought a Cameo when my insurance company unexpectedly sent me a check for an amount I didn't know they owed me.

I feel like my die-cutting landscape is now complete!

Well, if we are tossing in manual systems, in addtion to my Gazelle, I have an Epic 6 (would prefer the Evolution or Big Shot for my portable option) and an Accucut Grandemark ( )

I have the Grand Calibur. I fell in love the the Spellbinders and wanted a die cutting machine specifically for those.

I thought long and hard about a Cameo, but that meant buying another computer to use it and it doesn't emboss. Also, I looked through their gallery and didn't really care for what was offered. Didn't think it was worth all the money.

Slice Elite and a Big Shot. I love them both but since the Big Shot is newer, I use it more (these days).

Need multiple choices on the survey. I have several different types and brands. The Inspiration is by far my favorite.

I should add that the one I choose for a project depends on what I am wanting to do.

I have the often Pea vilified Expression I also have an Imagine and a Slice. They were both bought from friends that were unemployed and needed money.

My 13 yr old dd has an E2. My mom has my back up Expression.

Our E's are perfect for us. We take them to 4-H events and can let the kids use them without having to worry about them breaking them. And I'm another that does not want to do any computer scrapbooking. Once I open the laptop, my scrap day is shot

Expression with SCAL2 and a cuttlebug.

I think what PC did was pretty ridiculous--limiting themselves like that. And if I get the money, I am switching to a Cameo.

I have a Cricut Expression 2. But i also have an old crank handle one, not sure of the name, with some dies. I like that one, too, but have not bought any new dies for it.

Love my Cricut.

Hi!! My latest purchase is the eClips and the eCal software. I also have a silhouette SD and a Cricut create.
The eClips is pretty amazing.

Cricut Expression

Cricut Baby Bug (don't currently use it anymore, but it's packed back up in it's box "just in case" something were to happen to my E. I have over 70 carts and wouldn't want to be without a machine to use them with).

Big Shot

Silhouette Cameo, and Big Shot PRO-this baby cuts any size die from any company and was worth every penny!! (got a great deal from ohmycrafts about a year ago-can't touch one for what i paid now!)
I am a happy camper with my set up!
(Oh, i did have an original bug, then the Expression + a Gypsy and carts.....sold all of it on Ebay and have never looked back! NO, i didn't get what i paid for it, but it sat for over a year and i didn't use it, so why keep it? It wasn't worth anymore money to me the longer i kept it, plus i needed room for my new toys!! LOL!)

I have a BossKut Gazelle. Like that I can cut just about any material and can make my own designs...but feel like most of their designs are "cutsey" which is not my style.

Big Shot and Baby Bug. Eventually I would like to upgrade to an Expression but only if I can get one cheap. I can see the advantage of having a system that cuts any font, but I have so many shapes & alphabets between my dies and the Cricut carts I really don't need much more.

I currently have a cameo and a cuttlebug to emboss. I had a cricut with MTC, but I gave that to my DD when she went off to school and got myself a cameo. I love my cameo!

Another Slice gal here - original, not Elite.

I would love a Cameo or Silhouette, but can't afford it.

Sizzix eClips! Love it because:


I wanted to be able to design my own stuff (and cut any font I want!)

If we are going to ad why we love our cuttters:
my Zing because I can cut svg's, design my own stuff.
And it cuts heavy
Cardstock, fanric, chipboard and felt, as well as lightweight balsa wood.

I have the silhouette SD and I love it. I have no need right now to upgrade to the cameo. I also have a big shot and a big shot pro. Love them too. If I ever do upgrade to a bigger electronic machine I will seriously consider the zing instead of the cameo.

It took me years to decide on a machine, I really still believe I would not use an electronic machine enough to justify the price. I have a Cuttlebug and it is perfect for my needs. The photo on my avatar is Sapphire who hopped in the box as soon as I took the machine out!

BigShot for me-it's still one of my most frequently used gadgets, and like some other posters I decided not to buy a computer-linked cutter. The BigShot works for me.

I have a Cricut Expression with about 15 carts that I use so rarely that I've loaned it out to a friend indefinitely.

I have a Cuttlebug with lots of embossing folders, and have been thinking about getting some Spellbinders and such. I guess I'm weird, preferring manual! I've even thought about getting a Sizzix and such.
