OH MY GOSH!!!! I just tried something on my Cricut and IT WORKED!!!!! Something was mentioned earlier about using mini Sharpies in the Cricut instead of the Cricut markers. Well, I remembered having some tiny gel pens that I bought CHEAP in the dollar spot at Target. I wrapped some paper & tape around a pen and tested it. I had to remove a little paper a few times to get it the right size, but IT WORKED!!! Woohoo!!!
As requested, this is what the pen looked like BEFORE I "papered it up" - LOL I put the tape measure there so you could see approximately how long the pen is. They're very small ones.
Anyway, enough of my excitement! On with the photos!
I just did a simple word - Hello - with DJ Fancy font. The white spot at the top of the "H" is because I didn't prime the pen before using it. My bad! I'm learning and that was just a test! ;o)
Please let me know what you think!
