I brought myself one last year. I ordered off e-bay on News Years Eve alot cheaper than in the stores and it was brand new. I really haven't used it very much. :( It seems to be really cool tho!

I saw a cricut for cake decorating!

Don't have a cricut but I'd love one :)

I have one and when i pull it out I really enjoy it. I have not used all of the features on it but I am sure at some point I will. I make cards so that is what I use it for. Also if you look at picts here on the community section I have some posted where I got some of the wall vinel and made my own wall cut outs for the boys' bathroom.

I got mine on black Friday last yr. at walmart it was my christmas gift to me. It was funny b/c there were a few others of us around it by the time we could get to them we had our plan mapped out. If you didn't get the color you wanted we were swapping and one guy was to get all the carts and pass them out. It was funny but really nice to see us crazy people working tog. to get what we all wanted

Jackfrosty, I'm not to sure about the cricut imagine. I haven't seen it in action yet, but with it having HP ink in it. I would think it would cost a fortune to run. It's alot of trial and error with sizes as it is, but maybe if I seen it in person I'd change my mind.

I love my cricut. I use it for all kinds of things. Last night I used it to make about 15 large starts to attach to my car for trunk or treat. I was done in about 15-20.

I have a cricut...the smaller one, not the big one. I wish I had the bigger one, but the small one is good for lettering, banners and card making...scrapping too. If I had the larger one, I'd probably use it for bulletin boards at school.

It's an investment, especially the cartridges, but you can get them on sale.

teachermomof2.....it definitely will be an investment, hopefully I can make some nice things to sell in my Etsy shop.

Candy Cane, I'm so happy for you!! Pleae keep us informed on how you like and what you are doing with it. I have heard of the software but don't know much about it. I only know that it works with the cricut just as the cartridges would but is cheaper and the variety is endless. Congratulations!

Thanks Snickerdoodle! It should be here in the next few days so once I start crafting with it I'll try and post some pics!

Aggy, you need to get you one! It's the "bomb diggity" for crafters, LOL!

I'll most likely end up getting the sure cuts a lot software so I can have lots of projects without spending lots of money on cartridges so I'll keep everyone posted on how the software is.
