Cricut BrightPad Initial Thoughts

Hey Crafter's!!!

I really, really wanted to love the new Cricut Bright Pad.  I mean REALLY wanted to love it.  I saw the presentation and the previews and thought this will make me step-up my vinyl crafting.  Help with weeding out those iron-on.  I figured the other uses they were talking about would just be icing on top of a cake.

Oh how wrong I was. I have tried to to use different types of vinyl and iron-on, and the Bright Pad does not help me see the lines not even a little bit.  I've changed the intensity of the brightness, turned off other lights in my crafting space.  None of it helps.

Now, I so want this to work, that I am willing to say that it could be the operator and not the machine.  So leave a comment if you have had success with seeing weeding lines more clearly and tell me what you're doing.  I'm sure there are others who having my experience and would love to know.

Happy Crafting,
