My Cricut Scrapbooking

I stopped by Joann’s on the other side of town looking for some Tim Holtz Stickles and when I walked in the door, there staring me in the face saying BUY ME! were the holiday 2010 Sizzix releases (no Tim Holtz sad to say)

These are soooooo cute!!!!!!  I have not seen these online or in stock anywhere yet.  They also had a bunch of Bigz dies (Rudolph) and (Snowman) that come with free coordinating embossing folders.  I did not buy any of those, but they were selling those for $29.99.

Each set of folders comes with a fee coordinating sizzlits die .

They are selling for $15.99 a piece argh!!!!  If anyone knows me though, I rarely ever pay full price.  It just so happened that I was armed with COUPONS!

If you buy this magazine at Joann’s there are (2) 50% and (4) 40% off coupons on the back of it.  The coupons can all be used at the same time!!!!  The magazine is $2.99 and if magazines are not on sale that week, you can even use a 40% to buy the magazine!!!!  The store on the other side of town never carries this magazine, but the smaller Joann’s store near me does.  So when I see them, I usually buy six of them.  They don’t expire until January of 2011.  I have also used the 50% coupons at Michal’s when I bought my Xyron Creative Station and Prisma Colored Pencils.

I think most everyone knows that I got a pink cricut expression!!!  Well CGULL is selling a pink tool kit.  I got it from papercraftingpro.com for $12.50 plus $5.20 shipping.

.

I think that the color is off, because it is EXACTLY the same color pink as the cricut. It almost matched the cricut expression rolling tote that I have and the cricut cartridge tote.

Today is the the start of my vacation!!!!  Yesterday my son turned 2 and we had a small birthday party for him.  His big party is going to be next weekend.  We are spending three nights in Wisconsin Dells this week.  The kids are going to have so much fun  at the waterpark.  They are so excited and keep running around asking if we are on vacation yet.  It is so cute!!

I will try and post a few more files before I go on vacation, if I don’t have a great week!!!!!

Gosh, this week has been fun.  Cupcakes to a skeleton head and now a wicked Halloween tree. Okay, it is just a regular tree but it kind of looks evil and wicked right?  Here is a wicked Halloween Tree SVG.

Happy cutting on your cricut

I woke up and checked my e-mail this morning to an e-mail from http://cricutmachine.com and they are having a really good sale right now.  All of the new cartridges including Toy Story are $34.95 and FREE SHIPPING!!!!  My kids are OBSESSED with Toy Story right now.  I can not wait to get this cartridge.  My daughter was jumping up and down as I ordered it.

The other day I got an e-mail from them that the gypsy was on sale for $189.00.  That is not unusual, but this Gyspy comes with 6 cartridges and guess what????? All six are an electronic download.

I know at one point they were selling the 4 down-loadable cartridges in a bundle as well for $49.95 and several people have bought it and it does work!  It is no longer on there site but I am POSITIVE that this will not be the last you have heard about this.  There have been rumblings for a long time that cricutmachine.com is owned and operated by Provocraft since the contact information they have listed on there site, and with the BBB are listed on other sites that we KNOW are Provocraft.  I am thinking that this was a test for them to see how the download service would work and maybe, just maybe there will be some more $12.50 cartridges in our future!!!

Skeletons, spirits and haunts,
Skeletons, spirits and haunts.
It’s a Halloween sale:
A nickel a pail
For skeletons, spirits and haunts.

Skeletons, spirits and haunts,
More than most anyone wants.
Will you pay for a shock,
‘Cause we’re quite overstocked
On skeletons, spirits and haunts.

I thought that this skeleton head was pretty cool.  Perfect for Halloween.  It is in a layered svg so all you have to do is turn the layers on and off in SCAL2.
