OK-- Cricut has me obsessed

Ok -- I now admit it, the Cricut Expression has given me a new obsession. Ok -- At Scrap It PLUS, we have 90 plus cartridges to choose from.

Here is an image that I did for Nichole and the Cricut Circle Challenge #21-- We were to use the theme of an animal, and have at least two cuts. I used the Gypsy to make the 3" windows (Plantin Schoolbook Cartridge. ) I then took the same layout and reduced the windows to make the white mat. It took me less than 10 minutes to design this on the Gypsy. I now take my Gypsy everywhere.

The word, Nichole, is from Old West cartridge.

I love the look of the window. I will be reusing this layout for other pictures as well.

Cricut Cartridges

Cricut Cartridge Crazy! Jo keeps raking in more and more Cricut cartridges for us to use. If you are a daily or annual member, you can use the cartridges any time FREE. Bring your own Cricut and just enjoy. There are over 70 cartridges and counting.

And guess what! Jo and her team have also recently discovered a new website -- cricutsearch.com. This site lets you search for images you want to use. How wonderful is that? For example, we were looking for a bicycle. Typed in the word bicycle and sure enough, we had the cartridges and could cut out our bicycle. You can do so much. ~Come play with us~

Marta and her 8 Godchildren

Wow!, Wow! Wow! What a story. Marta, who has 8 Godchildren, visited our Scrap It PLUS "playground" last weekend. She came to play with us. We learned Marta has a yearly tradition. She gives her godchildren a different book on their aniversary of their baptism along with an ornament. The ornaments go with the book she chooses. Marta told us she wants to learn something new every time she makes her yearly ornament. So, this year, she came to Scrap It Plus and learned to use the Cricut die cutting machine. Maybe she will soon decide to "swarm" on down with us carrying her very own Cricut like many of our other members. All the possiblity at Scrap it Plus.
