Silhouette Magnet Paper {A Crafting Fail}

Sorry this project is so late. My original project idea (letter magnets for my son) didn't work out. We have a laser printer that didn't like the printable magnet paper. It would feed it through, but no matter what settings I used, my printer left a ghost print, if you will, on the magnet paper. It would print the letters correctly, but then about 1/4th of the way down it started printing them faintly again. They definitely weren't usable. I'm positive this wasn't an issue with the Silhouette software, magnet paper, or machine. My printer just didn't want to print on the printable paper. I think the magnet paper would definitely work better with a different printer, probably an inkjet. Or even a more sophisticated laser printer.

  
I even tried just cutting out a grid with my machine and then I was going to just write the letters on the paper. I had it all set up to cut...
 


It was loaded properly on the mat and the grid was well within the range to be cut out on the magnetic paper. However, it got to the bottom of the first vertical line and the rollers went past the magnetic paper. Usually this isn't a big deal for any other kind of media that I regularly use (vinyl, cardstock, etc), but this time, when the blade moved to the right and the rollers tried to go back up over the magnet paper, it wouldn't go. No dice. It was jammed. I unloaded it, but there was no way to get the paper back in at the exact same spot and try to get the grid cut out. I'd already used 3 of the printable magnet sheets through the printer and this was my last chance to make this project work. Also, the settings provided in the Silhouette software weren't deep enough. It didn't cut all the way through the magnetic paper anyway. I would have had to recut everything with scissors. The issue of not rolling back over the magnet paper could be because my machine is the older Silhouette SD. I believe it was made before Silhouette developed most of their specialty media. Maybe it just wasn't meant for something this thick? I don't know what the reason is, but this was definitely another craft fail. Sorry folks.
 
I still really like the idea of the printable magnetic paper though. And I've seen other crafters use this very successfully! If you're interested in purchasing it, the printable magnet paper comes in a set of 4 sheets and is 30% off right now. Just use the code "SOMEDAY at checkout. It's normally $9.99, so you can get it for just $6.99!!


 
So, since my first project failed (that's been happening a lot lately - remember my failed glass etched pie pan?), I hope to come up with another successful project this week. Wish me luck! :)

Craft Fail: Glass Etched Pie Pan

I had the privilege of trying out Silhouette's new Glass Etching Starter Kit, but it didn't go so hot. See what I mean?
 
 
None of my casserole dishes or pie plates have a smooth outside. So, I took my chances. I wasn't sure if the etched part of glass would affect that food put on it, so I didn't feel comfortable putting it on the smooth inside part. Instead, I took my chances over the Pyrex logo on the bag. That's the biggest part of the problem here. But, If you look closely at the word "kitchen" you can see that the etching cream didn't stay within the vinyl very well. This was all despite my efforts to make sure it was stuck very well. See?
 
 
I know it's kind of blurry. It's hard to get a good up close shot of etched glass. But all those brighter white spots are from where the etched cream got under the vinyl - probably during the rinsing part of the process. It also produced a very inconsistent result.
 
I think the kit from Silhouette is a fabulous idea, I just think my execution wasn't the greatest. I also wish the vinyl they give you for the stencil was a different color other than clear. I think that was part of the problem in the "p" in our name. The stencil vinyl is clear, the transfer tape is clear, and the glass (or mirror) is clear. It's hard to make sure that every little part of every letter transfers properly. Most likely, the inner circle of the "p" didn't get stuck to the glass pan, which is why it's just a blob.
 
I don't really blame the kit for my issues. I think it's mostly due to the fact that the bottom side of my pan isn't flat.
 
Sorry I didn't have a really cool project to show you. I love the look of glass etching and this probably would have looked so much better if I hadn't tried to etch over the bumpy logo.
 
Don't forget about the Silhouette promo going on right now! You can get the Glass Etching Starter Kit for 25% off or a killer deal on the cutting machines and the glass etching kit bundled together. This promo is valid through October 4th, so hurry over and get your own machine!
