In my planner, I have a bookmark to show where I am - my "This Week" marker. It's not fancy. Just a piece of card with a tab on top. And it has been decorated by my youngest, slightly on the front and extensively on the back (which I'm not showing because she signed her name on it). It's worn out and not very professional looking. Enter my Cricut and some maple veneer!
This cut so well and it was super successful with a deep-point blade and default settings for veneer. I prototyped on card to validate the design, then cut two copies of the shape and used some wood glue to attach them together. Looking forward to treating it with some oil and varnish to really bring out the grain and make it more durable. I think I'll also cut some rings of forest green card to help reinforce the holes.
Now though, the question becomes: do I use the vinyl cutter for the label, or do I laser engrave it?
