I do, but was looking for "ready-made" ... similar to the 1mm carboard used in the commercial pieces available to supplement many of the Polish models. That cardboard is "softer" and thus cuts better in my Cameo paper cutter.
Thanks for the reply. Gene K |

Softer? as in weaker, more bendy, etc ?
As the card gets thicker, it needs to get stronger, more rigid (in my opinion) to work as formers or internal structure. The only ready-made 1mm thick card I can think of, is artist's boards, illustration boards, matte boards, etc And none of these would be suitable for a cameo cutter. In fact, I don't see a Cameo Cutter handling 1mm thick material of any kind? But the best place to look an assortment of card types and thicknesses is your local Artists Supply. I mean a proper store for art supplies. Michaels is NOT a proper store for art supplies. Look at artist's suppliers that cater to architects, drafts people, as wel as painters and artists. I still say laminating card is the best option. Its cheaper and you can choose the level of quality of what you are laminating. Cereal box card is the cheapest, softest, weakest card I know. If you have a 'softer' card that will work in your cameo, then why not try laminating it to 1mm and using it in your machine (if it will go).?
