Walmart was nuts but I got my Lites!

I was out all night starting at Walmart at 10 waiting for the lites to go on sale. I got them and Jolly Holidays and Twinkle Toes are cuter than I had expected. I talked lots of people in line into coming toACMoore to get their expression bundles and full carts and they did! I finished all of my shopping for the holidays so now I can just craft December away. I hope you all had as much success as I did.

Cricut Imagine Demo December 5th 8-10pm

Hi there I will be demoing the Cricut Imagine machine at ACMoore in Frederick MD on December 5 from 8-10pm. We will be doing a make and take along with it. We will be making some simple gift tags from the Snow Angels cartridge. While I was making some tags I also thought hmmmm...... a gift box to put them in. I used the TBBM matchbox and colored it with the Snow Angels cart to make them match, a 3-d pointsettia on top and Viola! Quick, simple and practical from the Imagine.

See you there!

Black Friday at ACMoore

Hi I saw the ad yesterday and wanted to pass info on.

199 for the expression bundle includes 4 cartridges and 1 pack of 7 inks
34.99 for all regular cricut carts
19.99 for all the seasonal carts
9.99 for some selected spellbinders dies
and some special coupons for early birds

they open at 5am I know our store has many of these expressions, but hurry the price goes up at noon!

Here is the cards I have been wanting to make. All pieces were cut with the Imagine. This will go even better once the Gypsy can cut with color.

The baby frame I made made as a store display. We used a scrap piece of mat and it was great. I took the mat home and adjusted the color and paper pattern backround to work together. It came out pretty good I think.

I took the plunge and did the Gypsy and Imagine update.....

Ok if you have followed along when I first got my first Imagine machine I did the update and it blew my mother board. So they sent me a new one and I have been petrified to do the update on it. So Chris from provo announced this morning it was safe to go in the water. I did and I have to say YIPEEEEEEE! I finally get to make the card I have wanted to make since I got the machine. And now she is fully compatable with my Gypsy. Life is Great right now. I will be crafting all night to see just what this baby can do.

Playing with my Imagine! and Gypsy Update

Ok so I finally had some time to really play with my Imagine. I have to say I LOVE IT! I will find out on Monday if we are getting a demo unit in the store for me to teach on. Mean time I am working on getting some of my projects mounted and posted at the store for you to see.

Don't forget starting tomorrow connect your Gypsy ot the sync to get the 6 free cartridges one of my favorites TBBM is on the download.

I was excited to get my email the other day. Provo Craft gave me and only 99 other people the opportunity Thursday to sneak peek the download with smiley cards cart. That cart is adorable. It has emotioncons just like my phone and IM do. They are stinkin cute! I love some of the envelopes on there too. Absolutely another great card cart from cricut and its free if you already have your Gypsy.

New Winter Minis?

Check this out I was in Joann's yesterday and the cashier was putting these out. I wonder what the 3rd one is, since they usually come out in 3's.
