Cricut

Anyone here have a cricut? Is it worth it?? I plan on making several crafts in the near future to possibly even sell, and I'm wongering if the cricut is well worth the money? I don't want it to be one of those things I get b/c it sseems awesome, and then once I have it I only use it once a year LOL. Thanks! Please tell me all the things about the cricut!!

Re: Cricut

I have questions about it too. The Cricut Create is on sale @ Michael's but i don't know the difference between all of them. Can you print using this machine as well?

Re: Cricut

I have the expression and the smaller/original cricut. When I bust one out, I use them A LOT! I get most of my cartridges from Oh My Scraps and Ebay.

Aside from purchasing cartridges, there is software available that allows you to cut computer fonts, clip art and other images on the cricut as well. They are called Sure Cuts a Lot & Making the Cut. They are both pretty inexpensive and relatively easy to use - there are a lot of tutorials & how-to videos online.

There's a new Create Imagine that colors the diecut I don't think it's intended to replace a printer. It's still being driven by cartridges.

HTH!

Love my expression! So worth it, I am excited to make holiday gifts using it!

Re: Cricut

I had bought the original cricut last year but then my MIL bought me the expression for my bday this year (she didn't know i had the original one). I was going to put my original one up for sale. I have only used it 2 times, as I now use the expression. Let me know if ur interested. It's still in the original box.

I love Cricuts!

If I could spare the expense I'd get the Silhouette b/c it doesn't use cartridges. Silhouette
