Got a Cricut Create!

[norwestgal]

A lady in town sold me a Cricut Create. They sell here at Wally for $180, I got it for $80 (she was asking $75, I told her to keep the change). No cartridge but I got one tonight ("meow"and a second cutting mat because I am not sure how long they last though the one I got with the machine looks hardly used).

So, now what?! I do cards, I do not scrap so the Create is perfect. I will have to find time to play.LOL

I love my Cricut Create- hubby surprised it for me in Nov and since then I have purchased appox 12 Carts.I mostly Make Cards but do make scrapbooks for my Son and chipboard Mini learning albums/books for him. This size machine will cut fairly large all the way down to tiny. I hope you love your as much as mine - if you make cards alot look into Storybook Cart it is very versitle. I do think I will upgrade to the expression at X-Mas time even though at the time I was only thinking about the Create- the expression is great if you have school age kids and will have to help with school projects.
Enjoy your new toy!!

Thanks, all, I appreciate the comments. My Pastor's wife has the Expression so I can see what she has in cartridges. I work full time and have found my crafting time to be extremely limited but I think I will need to MAKE time.

Congratulations, welcome to the world of Cricut.

Under tools on Splitcoast Stampers there is a Cricut Chatter forum, a good place to ask questions.

Provo Craft has a forum also, it's http://community.provocraft.com/ and you'll have lots of ideas and enabling.
