Friday Q&A: Questions from Mad Cropper readers

This Friday’s Q&A revolves around questions from our Mad Cropper readers:

Shopgirl asks re the Wishblade Reviews post:

I would like to create vinyl letters that would adhere to my storefront. I have had them made for me by a sign company, but they are too expensive. Where can I find the vinyl sticky paper (what is it’s technical industry name?) and which cutter should I buy??

Matt also asks regarding Wishblade usability:

I’d also need to know further about the custom graphics usability.

If I can’t just make stencils off a common editor like paint shop pro or photo shop, and cut them out with the machine, it’s useless to me. So i need to know what types of files wishblade will use (ie gif, jpg, tif), things like that.

PS: people interested in cricut.. it only uses graphics they sell you on cartriges at $80 per.. and you’re still stuck using what ever they make.. no doing your own.. at this time.

Melanie asks regarding Ria Mojica’s inspirational layout:

Would love to know where she obtained the embellishments for this super cute layout!!

Answer: I have emailed Ria regarding this. I will update this post once I hear back from her. Stay tuned!

I don’t have Wishblade so can’t really answer the questions here (but will do some research!). If any of you knows the answers to some of the questions featured here, please feel free to leave a comment on this entry.

Happy cropping!
