Do you recommend SLICE cutter by Making memories?

I was going to buy basic shaped paper punch then found out about this machine. I'm not a big Scrapbooker but I do make lots of cards and crafts. I love simple design, so I'll only need different sizes of circle, scallop, squares, tag shapes etc.

I was going to buy 3,4 different sizes of the basic shaped paper punch but this seems more practical and saves a lot of my space and money! instead of buying 3,4 different sizes of the same paper punch...especially when one paper punch easily costs $15.

I watched a demo video provided on their site, and the only thing I was unsure about it was that I had to use the glue thing on the glass mat every time I wanna cut something?!?!? that might be too much trouble.
Also, how often do you have to change the blade?

Any pros, cons would be appreciated! If you recomment it than buying a bunch of paper punches, I'll go buy it today!

Thanks!

Personally I would invest in a Sizzix machine. It will do much more for you. It can use die cuts from all Sizzix products, Cuttlebug (which are inexpensive) Quickkutz and Spellbinders.
There are many sizes and shapes and alphabets to use with it.
You should be able to use a coupon on it at JoAnn's

Creative Memories Scrapbooking: Making Memories More Memorable With Creative Scrapbooking

People are such nostalgic creatures. Keeping souvenirs of important, and even not-so-important events in life is a universal past time. Who doesn't have a mom, dad, aunt, uncle, grandma, or a grandpa who keeps on lugging a camera around to take pictures of practically any occasion whether it be as significant as a graduation or as mundane as one’s 234th Quarter Pounder? People like keeping as many memories as they can.

Unfortunately most mementos go to waste. Photographs just keep piling up on boxes and drawers (or in the hard drive, to be digitally appropriate). Luckier pictures may end up in stacks of albums but most people rarely care to view them. As much as most people want to reminisce about important milestones in their lives, keeping tokens becomes so much of a routine that their value sometimes end up forgotten. This defeats their purpose.

Luckily, such a situation can be avoided with an emerging hobby called creative memory scrapbooking. Mementos are given back their significance, keeping the memories alive.

Creative memory scrapbooking is basically an inventive approach to keeping memories. Creative memory scrapbooks are beyond typical photo albums. They are hybrids of albums, journals, and scrapbooks. The combination of these kinds of memoirs makes personal stories and reminiscing more interesting. This makes sharing treasured moments to others or just recalling them alone more fun and exciting.

Normally people just collect pictures and souvenirs randomly. Once they pile up, they end up in the attic or the basement and then they are completely forgotten. The rare chances that they might be viewed could be just as boring as they are nothing but random clips of memory that do not tell anything.

With creative memory scrapbooks, memories come back to life when the books are viewed. Pictures make more sense as they are paired with words or laid out in an organized fashion. Reliving moments preserved in the scrapbooks could be a good way to keep family ties and strengthen bonds. Additionally, well kept books could serve as heirlooms that would keep a family’s legacy throughout the coming generations.

Making creative memory scrapbooks is quite easy. Nowadays most craft stores have creative memory sections dedicated for the making of such scrapbooks. There are also some scrapbook-making kits available in bookstores and online.

Memories are special and their preservation should be special as well. With, creative memory scrapbooking, memories can truly be more memorable.
