Cricut for Beginners!

Good morning my Creative friends! I hope all of you had a FABULOUS weekend! I had my bi-monthly scrapbook class & my girls & I had a FABULOUS time, like always! If you would like to see pics from my class, you can see them HERE! If you missed my ustream on Friday, I announced the 4 lucky winners AND I announced my very 1st Design Team!! I will have a full post on that on Wednesday!
For today, I wanted to share with you this AMAZING DVD called "Cricut for Beginners"! All I have to say is "WOW"! If you JUST got a cricut & if you are like "Me" & like to have a visual on how to use it, this is the PERFECT DVD for You!!! The talented Maria & Natalie teach you how to use your cricut in 18 easy-to-follow lessons! In my opinion, they teach EVERY feature to perfection! There are several amazing projects "YOU" can re-create! The BEST part about this DVD is that it includes Design Studio AND Gyspy cut files and "SUPPLIES" to make the project for your first lesson! Isn't that FANTASTIC!

  30. Hi Emma! Thanks for doing a giveaway! This one looks cool! I love my Cricut so so much I've had it for several years but just recently really started using it when I got my Gypsy! The two of them make my life so much easier and there is so much to do with them!!! I remember when I used to cut everything with my sizzix, the dies and everything took up so much space, it was crazy! Now I don't know what I ever did without my Cricut!!! I love your site too always learning new stuff! Thanks so much! :-)

  33. To begin with i shattered my left leg in july of 2007. I wasn't able to get out of the house. Some one had to help me 24/7. My husband did. He did everything for me. Such a good guy. It took 18 months for me to really be upright again and walking as good as i do now. But i still have bad days. But during that time he bought me my first Cricut. Kept my mind off of all the things i used to do. Like even driving my self to a store for a diet coke. I got good at using the cricut. But not to its potential. Then he bought me my expression. I love it and i love the baby bug. Crafting made me able to stand having to stay home easier for me. He then bought me my Gypsy and then the imagine. Now i have so much fun crafting and i have all my new blogger friends. When the computer started failing he went out and bought me this new computer. If i didn't have the cricut to keep mine mind off things I don't know if i could have stood it. So I love my Cricuts and I love my man, and I love my Blogger Friends. Thanks for the chance to win.

  34. My Cricut has really opened my eyes to all the amazing layouts that can happen within a scrapbook. Also, I never thought I'd be interested in creating my own cards and now I say "How can I not" with my Cricut? :) Thanks Emma!

  35. I love my Cricut because it has shapes, fonts,etc. all in one place. One machine on the craft table and I am good to go. I have to admit that I do not know all the ends and outs of designing with the Cricut but would really! like to learn. I recently bought a Gyspy and I need to spend some time learning it. So many things out there to learn...so little time. Thanks for the chance to win a fab prize. {Hugs} Peggy M

  40. Hello Emma,

    I love visiting your blog. I visit it pretty much everyday. I always look forward to your posts. I bought my cricut a couple years ago. I wasn't sure what to do at first, but it came with a DVD to give me some ideas on what I was able to do with it. Since having it, I haven't done too many things with it as college classes were keeping me busy. I decided to take a break from school and want to invest that time in to crafting more. My cricut has given me the opportunity to do things that would normally take a person hours to do by hand. I enjoy making greeting cards, invitations and scrapbook pages for my loved ones. As always thanks for sharing and your an inspiration to us all.

  57. I love my cricut because of all the cool things it can cut which I then use to jazz up my scrapbooks. There is a "ginormous" difference in my scrapbooks before the cricut and after the cricut.

  102. Hi Emma... the reason that I love my bug SO much is that I can use it for my classroom. I teach Kindergarten. I use the bug to make bulliten boards, craft projects for my kids to make in the art center and to label centers. And honestly a WHOLE lot more!

    I have to say that i have fallen in love with your Retro challenge. I seem to collect more than I use- I really think it is a time issue. But your challenges are pushing me to actually USE what I have... THANK YOU!

  115. That looks like a book that can even help us that have used our Cricut for a few years. I love mine for the cute and elegant things it can cut out on ordinary paper!! I'm amazed at the things it can do and fell in love with it the first time it was advertised!! It also helps me with time - I can get my cards done so much faster so I can get them in the mail for Operation Write Home. You can't go wrong with a Cricut!!

  122. I would give anything to win this giveaway BECAUSE I;ve had my baby and expressions cricut since last Christmas but still can't figure it out. I have over 100 cartridges, DS, and this Christmas got the Gypsy, and the Imagine but don't know how to use any of them and have talked about getting rid of all of it but my husband refuses to let me. He keeps telling me that once I learn to use it properly that I'm gonna love it! So winning this give away would be the answer to my dreams and his too! Thanks for the chance. This is the hobby I chose when I became permanently disabled and wanted to start card making and scrapbooking but with money being very limited I have had to save every extra penny to get what I have and join a warehouse group to get the prices I got. Otherwise I don't have much and I'd love to win the set you're giving away so I'd atleast know what I'm doing but even if I don't win it, PLEASE tell me how I could get one of them. I have to have it whether it is by winning it or buying it! So please contact me either way!!!

  123. Awesome giveaway...I got the expression and gyspy for CHIRSTmas. I also brought the Make The Cut software and I cut my first cuts today!!! I LOVE IT!!! I have so much to learn and the gypsy...I updated it and that is all so far. LOL Thanks for the chance to win.

  124. Sounds like a great dvd! I can't begin to tell you all the reasons I love my cricut. Guess the big thing is that it got me creating cards & projects again. I used to stamp & scrapbook along time ago, but had stopped. Guess I was just burnt out & had to move on to some thing new (lots of different crafts), but then I kept seeing the infomercials & I had to have it. Then, somehow I found all the bloggers like you that share their projects & give me so much inspiration! Thanks for a chance at your generous giveaway!

    Gilbster Hugs,

  135. I LOVE my Cricut but I think that my daughter uses it more for school projects than I use for crafting. Maybe b/c I'm still learning the ins & outs. THANKS for having such a great giveaway. Congrats (in advance) to the lucky winner :)

  138. Emma, It seems I am always learning something new with my cricut or gypsy. Love them both. Thank you for your great tutorials. Would love to win DVD. I started out only using my cricut to cut words and now I am loving cards. How did the world not end before the cricut came along. Would not want to not have it.

  139. I LOVE the versatility that my Cricut offers me! I used to collect Quickutz and I hated that I could only cut one size! Upon seeing the Cricut I KNEW I had to have it! The fact that I can cut what over I want, with whatever paper I want it awesome!
    I use my Cricut on EVERY Lo I make.

  140. I only got my cricut just this Christmas, so I'm a beginner, and learning. I LOVE the few things that I've been able to do, and cannot wait to do more. I love the ideas that I get from all of these blogs. I will never have to buy birthday decorations, cards, door hangers, bookmarks, or anything else that I can make on my cricut ever again. I LOVE IT! I can't wait to get the Gypsy, and learn even more, thanks for the great giveaway!

  143. I love my cricut so much because when my husband was deployed overseas it kept my mind on making cute projects instead of what danger he might be in.

    Now that he's home I love to use my cricut to make cards and scrapbook pages.

    ReplyDelete
  144. Just found your site - fab info - thanks!!!

    I love my Cricut because it never ceases to amaze me. So many beautiful things you can create with it. And because it is dual purpose - papercraft and quilting...so it's even economical teehee ;)

  145. This would be amazing! My hubby is now home from overseas and started a fairly normal shift... so I now get some personal time to breath and scrap! I need all the help I can so I can fully enjoy my cricut!

  146. What a great giveaway. Something that can help all use beginnners. It would be great treat to be able to watch the vido so I could do more with my cricut and gypsy. I have used it very little as I find the books kind of confusing. I have been wanting to buy this but on my disability income it takes awhile to save for each thing I want to work with.
