I used a Cricut (pronounced cricket) for the first time last Friday! Amazing! I wanted to make a banner for Anna's 1st birthday party, so I got some things in the shape of a circle that I was going to trace and cut out and I was going to free hand my letters. Well, when I went to my friend's scrapbook store,
Scrapbook Addiction (owned by the amazing Brandi Pinn) to get some paper, she said why don't you borrow my Cricut?! My response was "what is that?" It is the coolest! Shapes, fonts, etc come on a cartridge that you plug in, put the letter pad on top, load the paper, punch in what you want it to do, and hit cut. That's it! It cuts everything out.
The end result! Well almost the end result. I still have to hole punch the top and tread twine to string the letters. Much better than my "free hand" could do any day! I'm hooked!!! I started to cut things out just to cut things out. So fun! Thinking this is a good Black Friday purchase.
Will the budget allow it? Don't know about that one.
