My Cricut Scrapbooking

Archive for the ‘Coupons’ Category

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!!!

I got my cricut cake machine last month from HSN when it premiered.  I just love it.

I have read where a lot of people are having trouble with the frosting sheets for the cricut cake machine.  Provocraft has answered our calls for help.  There is a new video demonstration!!!!

I got the cricut cake last month from HSN when it premiered.  I also had trouble with the frosting sheets in the begining.

This was my first attempt at the cutting the frosting sheets.  I realized right off that you needed to apply more white shortening to the mat then what I saw on the HSN premier.

This time it worked much better.

This butterfly is so cute!

Here are a few more cuts after I figured out the correct amount of shortening to put on the mat.

I went to Joann’s on the other side of town that I don’t normally go to yesterday and they have the cricut cartridges on sale for $39.99.  This included the new cricut cake cartridges as well.  I pre- ordered the Birthday Cakes cartridge and the Holiday cakes cartridge from ohmycrafts.com.  They are suppose to be shipping soon but I have not heard anything from them.  2 weeks ago I was told they would arrive last week.  Now that all the stores have them it is kind of frustrating.  I e-mailed them again and still have not heard anything back.  I ended up buying the Birthday Cakes cartridge yesterday because I wanted to use it to make my daughters birthday cake on Memorial day.  She is turning the big 3!!!

FYI, I also got the cricut cake water pen, 2 cricut cake mats and 2lb tub of white gum paste and used 50% and 40% off coupons on all it except the cricut cartridge.  They also had a bunch of packages of  the frosting sheets but I did not buy any of those.

The Joann’s right by my house sells a Fashion Fushion magazine with 2 50% off coupons, 4 40% off coupons on the back cover that expire June 19th.

The great thing is that all six coupons can be used at the same time.  The magazine sells for $2.99.  I buy several of them because I use them on cricut accessories like mats and blades.  I also use them on things for my embroidery machine like interfacing.  I recently bought a snapware 3 section storage container.  It retails for  $25.00 and I used a 50% off coupon and got it for $12.50.  I love these coupons.  If your store does not carry them you can buy them online.  Click on the magazine cover to go to Joanne.com.

Right next to the Joann’s store was a cake decorating store.  I had been searching online for cake supply stores in my area and remembered the name.  I went in and got a 2lb tub of Satin Ice Fondant.  It is suppose to be the best tasting one.  I can’t wait to try it out.  I am on vacation next week so I plan on practing some cuts before I try making my daughters cake.  I plan on going back to the Joann’s and get the Wilton Gold cake pans with my coupons.  I will post pictures of my sample cuts when I have them completed.

Craftedge is having an Easter sale on Sure Cuts A Lot (SCAL)  It is on special right now for $59.95.  Plus I have a 10% off coupon code that you can use on top of that to bring the entire price down to $53.95.

Hi Everyone,

I just wanted to let you know that  http://cricutmachine.com has cricut cartridges on sale right now.  Any cricut cartridge is $29.95.  That includes the new Once Upon A Princess cartridge as well.  They also have Tags, Bags, Boxes and More cartridge.  Provocraft recently announced that they were retiring this cartridge.  Once it is gone, it will be gone.  No more.  I love both of these.  I recently got the Once Upon A Princess cartridge.  I plan on making the castle for my daughters birthday.  She is going to be the big THREE at the end of May.  It just seems like she was born yesterday and now she is all potty trained and teaching her little brother the good and all the bad (like jumping off the couch).  Whatever Paige can do, Riley insist he can do as well and he pretty much does !  No stopping this one year old.

If you are interested in checking these cartridges out, you can click on each picture and it will take you to the item at cricutmachine.com.

I have received a lot of e-mails asking for the latest coupon code for SCAL2.  Here is the code.  Enter code 4190114 for 10% off.  I am not sure when the code expires.  I will update the side bar when it does.
