Cricut Celebrates Cartridge #100 (week 1)

Cricut Celebrates Cartridge #100 (week 1): "Help celebrate the 100th Cricut cartridge—Winter Woodland! That’s right, they've reached 100 cartridges. As a thank you to Cricut community members they want you to celebrate with us. So, they are giving away 100 cartridges over the next five weeks (20 per week).

Here’s how it will work.

Each week they will be posting a thread. When you respond to the thread you will be entered to win. You can enter once by replying and you can enter a second time by posting on your blog about the celebration and linking back to the cartridge product page. Here is the link to include in your blog. Once you’ve posted on your blog with the link back you can post again to this thread.

i-top brad maker by imaginisce

This is my newest toy and so far I am having fun with it. I have been watching this on the internet for sometime basically because my local Michaels and Joanns weren't carrying it in their store. Much to my surprise I was in Michaels last week and there it was. Always taking advantage of my coupons I bought the i-top brad maker for 40% off and then went back every day on my lunch and after work and bought as many accessories as were available that I wanted. Funny, they only had the small punch but didnt have the medium and large punches yet were also carrying all three size of the brad daddies. I bought the medium and large punch online along with the carrying case.
Don't waste your money if you think the carrying case is large enough to hold the i-top, punches and brad daddies because it won't.
I just got the carrying case and medium and large punch today in the mail so only have had a chance to play with the small brad daddies but will probably start with the others very soon. I have a ton of albums that I have to make for baby showers, birthdays, etc. Will be sharing more projects with you soon.


NEW CRICUT CARTRIGES!!!


And the ideas keep coming. Just when you thought it couldn't get any better they come out with more. Some of the new cartridges that are being released in September I really don't think I will have much use for because I have teenagers now but others I don't think I can do without.

First there is From My Kitchen. I don't know how often I would use it but my family loves to cook so it is something I am definately interested in.
Next is Calendar. Not really many images posted online yet but I really enjoy making calendars and chronological albums.

I have Paper Doll Dress Up now so adding this to the mix might be a lot of fun.
Now this Sweethearts one will probably be the first one I buy. I make quite a few wedding and love albums and this will add so much to my layouts.
Winter Woodland is just fantastic. I love the colors they use to represent the cuts that are available.
I am going to have a long Christmas list this year I think.

I love my Cricut!!!


I love my Cricut and Expression machines. I think I use them every day. This weekend I was playing with Paper Doll Dress Up (AKA PPDU) and made a bunch of different figure and still have more to do.


I never thought I would create or maintain a blog so bear with me if it doesn't get updated as often as it should.

I am married to a wonderful man and have two amazing children and I'm not just saying that it is someting that I have been told by many people. LOL. We are all greatly involved in our community and can always find us at some kind of an event.

I am a paralegal by profession and a scrapbooker to release my creative side. I love to create and share and also love to search for more ideas to bring into my projects.
