Anyone else have a silhouette cameo? I use mine for stencils. [View all]

I was buying stencils online for decorating a room in our house, and my wife sent me a link to the cameo, and said, "You have enough graphics skills to make your own."

Turns out, she was right. It's really not that hard. The only 'gotcha' I've found is that you have to be careful how you transfer from illustrator to silhouette studio when you're dealing with multiple-layer stencils.

Here's a quick test I did today with a couple of new designs- ignore the bad painting, this was quick and dirty on a piece of posterboard.





I'm not into scrap booking, or glass etching, so.. what else do you use your cameo for?
