I do have one question about printing. Doesn't it use a ton of ink to do the scrapbook papers like on your magnet sheet? That is what has kept me from trying to use them.<br />Thanks again for all you share with everyone!

I hope you check back to see my answers ...Hi Judy,<br /><br />I hope you check back to see my answers - there wasn't an email contact on your blogger profile.<br /><br />The CM program is fantastic - as you know from reading my blog I use it all the time. If you don't already have a consultant who can help you, you can order it from my CM website - there is a link in the post to the page with the software and also a link in the side column. If you send me a direct email I can help you more with any questions (capadiadesigns@gmail.com).<br /><br />The dotted designs are printed directly on the magnet material. It is white and glossy like photo paper. The magnet sheets I used come 8 1/2 x 11 and were Staples brand. As I mentioned, the magnet hold is not very strong so the tiny shapes don't stick as firmly as I'd like.<br /><br />I don't have a larger format printer - just an HP all-in-one that is a few years old I think the model is 3680 but there is probably a more up to date version. I do use the HP inks and this printer has just two cartridges( black and color). There is a photo cartridge that adds two more colors to the black cartridge but I usually forget to change to it(!)<br /><br />You really should try Design Studio - it is a great way to get really creative with your cartridges. You can download the trial version to try it out and you will even be able to cut with the cartridge that is "native" to your Cricut - George for the Personal, Don Juan for the Create and Plantin Schoolbook and Accent Essentials for the Expression.<br /><br />I hope that helped - be sure to email me if you have more questions or need more information.Dianehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02661340742782657595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3436715926498129740.post-80702140934132596822010-02-06T03:40:41.087-05:002010-02-06T03:40:41.087-05:00Diane,

Did the dotted designs get printed right onto the magnet or a piece of paper and what size is it? Is your printer a larger then usual size because in the photos the magnet looks the same size as the 12x12 mat. (have never used the DS)<br />what kind of printer/ink are you using to get the vibrant colors.Mine is a kodak and I'm not happy with its results. Do you have to use a special ink for photos or just regular printer ink?Judy B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02456421901382010683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3436715926498129740.post-89591265546970591972010-02-05T12:18:07.785-05:002010-02-05T12:18:07.785-05:00OMG!

You never cease ...Diane, these items are beautiful. You never cease to amaze me with your ideas. I do have one question, which may sound really stupid to most of your followers. I know you chose the paper designs for the magnets from your software. Did you just print it directly on to the magnet material before cutting? I have always wondered how you could have any color or pattern on the magnet, therefore I have just never tried anything with it. If you used an inkjet printer, does the ink smear if it gets wet? I was thinking of possibly making my granddaughter some magnetic paper dolls. I know you are terribly busy, so just answer when you can. <br />Thanks so much, Karen Varney<br />rkv@embarqmail.commimiof2https://www.blogger.com/profile/07986327708551146086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3436715926498129740.post-25718916255482645512010-02-04T16:45:56.512-05:002010-02-04T16:45:56.512-05:00Adorable!!
