Cricut Vinyl question

[merrymstamper]

Has anyone cut vinyl words, images with the cricut and what was the result? Is there anything I should know before I chirp away? (I don't own a cricut but a friend and I would love to do this together.)
TIA

I have cut vinyl numbers for my husband's drag racing car. They work great! Amazingly, they have stayed on through multiple car washes and driving. They still look brand, spanking new after a full season of racing. Other drivers have seen them and have ordered sets for their cars too. Strange how such different hobbies can come together! LOL

Follow the directions included witht he vinyl. You need to do what they call a kiss cut. The blade housing needs to be set at 6 . This way you only cut the vinyl and not the backing paper. I love how easy mine cut.

will the original cricut work or is it the new wide one?
