The Xyron 5 inch Create-A-Sticker is really a fantastic tool when you are working with
larger embellishments, when you are working with a larger sheet of paper. It's also really
a great size for photos because you can stick 4 x 6 photos in, roll them one right after
the other; it gives you edge to edge adhesive if you're working on maybe a collage or 3D
project and it gives you--it's perfect size, goes quickly so you can get your projects
done fast so I absolutely love it! This is very similar to some of the other
machines. We are going to crank the handle and it's really easy to use. What I also like
about it is there is graphics and checks, so if we forget how to use it temporarily,
there's images that show you which side of the paper you want to have up. Then there
is also writing on the back that tells you to tear off the paper once you run it through,
so go ahead and roll the handle away from you and the pattern paper is going to be up.
Once it clears those little plastic teeth, you are just going to tear it right off.
The other nice thing about the 5 inch is it rolls up the clear film for you, so you don't
have to do that extra step of burnishing and then peeling that off and it's amazing because
there are those little holes for the buttons and there is no extra adhesive in there. You
know if you were working with tabs or liquid glue, you would have to worry about keeping
the adhesive out and then it just sits right on top of your project.
It's beautiful! You're so crafty and lovely! All Xyron products are very easy to refill,
so in order to get the old cartridge out, you just lift the lid, pull it straight up.
Take your new cartridge, put it straight back in and close the lid. I mean, it really cannot
get any easier than that. The five inch has two different refills, permanent and repositionable.
What I like about all Xyron products is that if you want to use both, one for one type
of project, one for another; they are interchangeable. You don't have to use the entire permanent
refill before you add a repositionable one. You can take them in and out as you wish.
They are also colour coated so when you're in the store, pink is permanent and green
is repositionable so you know which one you are looking at when you are in the aisle.
