The funniest thing was Olivia's reaction. She's recently "discovered" the joy of scrapbooking (I did not know the craft was so big in the 8-10yo set). While we were off on a snowday, she was watching an infomercial on it and was so enthralled~it was TOO FUNNY! She just kept saying "We've got to get this mom!" When I told her we scored one, she was jumping up & down doing the happy dance. My poor husband just looks at us like we're nuts . I told him this is my version of a golf club~it's a language he understands!!!

Sam & Abby's Mom replied: That is so weird,,,I just saw a commercial for that tongight! But,,,I thought it was only $50.00? I thought that seemed too cheap for over 4500 images! Wow! I dont even scrap and I wanted one. LOL

luvmykids replied: WOW, what a find! Have a blast using it and try to check in with us once in awhile

mom21kid2dogs replied:
Olivia thought that too! It was $50 to try it for 30 days, then you return it if you don't like it or pay the balance. I actually thought of doing that because it's not all that bad of a price to try it and return it. The shops around here loan them for $7 a half hour. I knew if it came to my house, though, it would never leave

Kaitlin'smom replied: okay I am clueless what is it?

Here's a link to the greatest product on earth

Cricut

Kaitlin'smom replied:
okay so what does it do? is it some kinda printer?

A&A'smommy replied: awesome, enjoy!!!

grapfruit replied: It's like a printer, but instead of printing, it cuts. So it cuts out letters, shapes, tags, all sorts of stuff. It's so cool! I'll take a picture of something that I made w/one.

MommyToAshley replied: Wow... CONGRATS TO YOU! You got a great deal! I use the die cuts at the Scrapbooking store for letters and shapes but a Cricut would make life so much easier!

Ashley loves to scrapbook too... how funny is that. I give her my extra photo prints and paper and she has made some really cute pages without any help from me. When she's a little older, I may start taking her on crops with me.

We haven't seen the commercial for the Cricut, but Ashley did see the one with the cutter that is lighted behind it (and has different attachments). She said, "Mommy we should get that for our scrapbooking"

grapfruit replied: Here's a little something I did for the office (I think it's about the only thing I have here....) The numbers are interchangable so you can put different times:
