Hello from Ireland

Posted by Sarah-jayne on 10 August 2011 at 23:54

Total newbie here – so expect some really dumb questions! I’ve played with craft robo in the past and have accucut and ellison die cut systems. I’m looking to buy a plotter/cutter very soon, as a way to help support my girls – I’d like to do personalised graphics, clock kits and other crafty niche items, plus learn to do van graphics and regular signage.
Just ordered Mike Stevens on the Art of Eye Appeal and create your own sign making business from Amazon – can’t wait to get started! When I finally find the right cutter (ie – cheap but works!)

thanks guys – am off to to look a couple of cutters next week, so fingers crossed I’ll be up and running soon. Just have to think of a name as well … a signless sign business, now that would be odd!
