Anyone got a Xyron? I got one for my birthday (9 inch model) over a month ago but today is the first time Ive actually got use it! I teach a r/w digital photography course and our last night is always about other things you can do and make with your digital photos and i make little examples
Anyway so far Ive made a champagne bottle label and some bedroom door name plates with the sticker/ laminate cartridge . I used the magnet/laminate cartridge and turned a bunch of my layouts into 4x4 fridge magnets that look great - even if I do say so myself!
This is a fab little machine to really extend your digi scrapping into your home and decor.
Has anybody else made stuff? Share!

I've got one, and used to use it a lot more when I did all paper scrapping. I've used it to stick patterned paper to the outside of a metal lunchbox-all the sides-and made a gift box for a friend. I love to get it out when one of the kids has to do a poster for school or a science fair project board. The Xyron makes it so easy to stick things to a poster--we cut everything out, run it through and adhere--so fast. And the repositionable adhesive cartridge makes it easy to make sure things get stuck in the right place.

Glad you're enjoying your new toy, Shelleyrae!

I've used mine for frdige magnets, a clean/dirty thingy for the dishwasher (no more excuses hubby), custome sitckers for the kids ti craft with, bookmarks, and <gasp> paper scrapping. I forget that I have it sometimes but it's a great tool.

Same here. I have the small one that doesn't do magnets or lamination. But I don't use it that much since I started digi scrapping so I haven't considered replacing it.

Love my Xyron! I've used it to make labels and to make covers for albums. For some reason, I can't get the laminating to work well - it comes out all wrinkly.

Yup! LOVE the Xyron and I just started recently using mine again too. I have the old 850 and was surprised to have found laminate cartridges for it still--stocked up. Guess I should probably stock up on adhesive too. Anyway, I just used it to laminate a trading card albums with Amy's templates.

I have the 5" and 9". I use both mainly for cards. I print photos for large card and note size cards than cut and use Xyron for the front of the cardstock. It works great and a photo quanity front
