Cameo for cutting circles in paper?

Pre-cut sheets are certainly a valid option. Being a bit of a tinkerer though, I like the way I can experiment with a cutter. Cutting foil or holographic inserts would be one example.

@webtrekker- those bronze age marvel badges and magnetics look fantastic. I can't believe you made them. What printer do you use for the magnetic sheets?

I just use my Canon Pixma ix6850 inkjet for printing magnetic sheet. The CIE inks I use are pretty resistant to UV fading, but I also sometimes overspray the magnets with a clear protective coat which enhances their looks and life.

Ah I've got a bog standard inkjet printer. I just brought a cookie laser printer but don't think it would be suitable.
Does the spa at make them waterproof?

Bog standard inkjet is fine as long as it can handle thick paper, 300gsm or above as the magnetic sheets are quite heavy compared to normal paper or card. A top-feeding printer is also recommended.

The spray I use (from Crafters Companion) seals the edges of the printed layer and allows for wiping clean with a damp cloth. The spray also makes the colours more vivid, which I like.
