Review of Xyron 900 9-Inch Creative Station, Colors May Vary

This is the best item I've EVER purchased for scrapbooking.I purchased it at a scrapbooking convention in San Diego and immediately felt guilty about the $75 price tag. Once I sat down to scrapbook using it, though, the guilt was gone!

It's so easy to use. You can make ANYTHING a sticker with ease. Pictures, die cuts, memorabilia, etc.If it's flat, it can be slid through the Xyron 900 and turned into a sticker. No more messy glue!It is mechanical, but not electric.You slide a cartridge in, place your picture (or whatever you want to make sticky) on one side, turn the crank and it comes out the other side as a sticker.SIMPLE!No mess, no fuss, no little removable parts to lose.

The only downside at all is that the cartridges can be pricey.I buy mine from my local Michaels ALWAYS using a 40%-50% off coupon. So, that really helps, otherwise you are looking at $30-$35 each.BUT, other adhesives can be expensive, too.I haven't attempted to see which costs more over the long run.

The other amazing thing is that you have a myriad of cartridges to choose from.You can use permanent adhesive, repositionable adhesive, MAGNET back, you can laminate, etc.

This is a MUST have for scrapbookers.You will save a great deal of time and not have sticky fingers!If you KNOW a scrapbooker and they don't have this machine... BUY IT FOR THEM.They will love you forever.
