I have had a hard time cutting fonts with the eCraft from Cardstock... way too much lifting and bunching. I am thinking I would like to try some sort of stickers to cut my words out of. Is there a certain kind of material I should look for?
I have not ever seen any in a store... so this is a brand new concept to me. I saw some signs the other day that had fonts in what appeared to be vinyl stickers on it... and thats why I had this idea.
I really dont know what to look for to buy and if there is any trick to using it.
This is my last attempt before I return this machine. It hasnt done a single thing yet I need it to do.
Thanks in advance for whatever ideas you have.

Have you contacted our customer support? The eCraft has a learning curve, and once learned you can cut almost any material out there. If you have attempted to cut, without any success, you may want to contact our support to ensure your machine is working properly.

I can cut shapes... so it is working. IT just wont cut out script fonts i need. No ideas on what product to try for the stickers?
I always use oracal vinyl and I usually buy it online. I use vinyl for everything I do now and I love it!
Script letter can be tricky when cutting from cardstock regardless of which machine you are using. I tend to use vinyl for these letters so you are right on track. There are several vinyl retailers online, the big box stores may carry some, but in limited colors and it might depend on your store. My advice would be to search online for a good price. I typically buy from a website, but only because they are local to me and they allow me to pick it up to save on shipping.
