I didn't know this since I've always shied away from that area of the stores & ignored all talk/reading of anything dealing with paper! lol Just how many of these machines are there on the market?! 8-O I'll just look around at the Cricut forum. I don't want to have to register at yet another forum to ask one Q. eek lol IDK what this Big Shot is. I'll have to do a search for it. Thanks! Oh, can the scissors, & circular punches or whatever they're called, with all the fancy designs cut fabric & felt?
