I put a jumbo wheel on my new catty order. I am going to make myself conquer my wheeling disability. Thank you so much to all of you who offered wheeling tips. And special thanks to Cambria for helping me out on what I needed to order. I can't wait for my stuff to arrive so I can tackle this issue!
You'll get the hang of it. It just takes practice with the wheel guide it makes things awhole lot easier. Soon you won't be able to get enough wheels. You'll be addicted.
Good luck be sure to post your first card.
I'll be waiting with baited breath to see how it goes.......
I've been avoiding the wheels because I'm nervous after hearing about people having troubles AND I've been trying to focus on the basics before getting into the whole "wheel thing". But there are some really great ones so my defenses are weakening.......
When I first got into Stamping, I bought the wheels first....could get more for my small buck! hee hee
One tip that someone told me was to go diagnolly starting from the bottom left hand corner, that way you can see where to line it up. That made it MUCH easier for me. I still wanna get the Wheel Guide so I can practice my straight wheeling!
Emily & MamaK, I'm sure that in no time at all, you'll be doin' some Cool WHEELIES!

Can I ask you a question about this, Emily? I am also planning to buy the Jumbo Mixed Bouquet wheel in my order next week and either want to have ink in white or versa. Did you buy the Jumbo One Cell cartridge and then the Whisper White refill? I feel like this should be an easy question but I'm having trouble figuring this out from the catty. Thanks!
The jumbo wheels are so much easier to use than the smaller wheels. The wheel guide is helpful too. The tip about going on the diagonal is a great one.
I love the jumbo wheels!! They totally rock. I had a small wheel and couldn't get the hang of it. I have the poinsettia, swirling stars (so cool from the winter mini), holly, and Cool. Obviously, I went a little nuts with the jumbo wheels for Christmas card. I think of the jumbo wheels like a kid's Big Wheels....the bigger they are the easier they are to maneuver. IMHO.
I haven't gotten my new catty yet....so, I can FINALLY get white for my jumbo wheels!!!!! YEAH!!!!
Don't worry, gals! If I can use the wheels you can! Can't wait to check your creations!

yes, they sell a regular cartridge in white and a white refill. To do jumbo you have to buy an empty jumbo cartridge and the white refill. White reinker won't work cause it's a thicker consistency.
I did it....here goes nothing!
Wheels ROCK AND ROLL!!!!
