Maggie as she discovers that this is NOT the crock pot she was expecting:
Maggie who is now resigned to not giving up paper scrapbooking entirely
In other words Thank You to my in-laws who have helped me look at a money-sucking hobby in a new refreshing way!
Hahaha! Looks like this was the Cricut Christmas! I got one as well, and so did Ann-Jeannette Dickson. They might be on sale or something...
ReplyDeleteI still refuse to become a scrapbooker. I know I would love it, but I don't want to waste hundreds of dollars on it. I'll use it to make cards and other decorations around the house. :)
Yeah! Maybe there was an awesome sale...
ReplyDeleteI don't scrapbook that often and was trying to go digital to "consolidate" all the paper. Hmm. So yeah don't take it up ;) I saw some vinyl at the craft store especially for use with the Cricut. We could become those ladies that have the vinly sayings on our walls now! Families are Forever!
I just see scrapbooking as an endless project and I really like starting a project and finishing it. Make Christmas cards, finish. Make birthday invitations, finish. Thank you cards, finish... you know? That kind of thing.
ReplyDeleteAlso you can find A LOT of projects you can use your Cricut on which don't imply covering your house walls with vinyl lettering! You can make ornaments and decorate them with vinyl cut-outs, you can make stencils to etch glass or paint boxes for a present or whatever, or make quiet books for Myriam for church. I mean, the possibilities are endless and they don't have to be limited to the Families are Forever or any other sign around the house. THAT's what I will use my Cricut on.
Scrapbooking? I'll pass on that one. :P I still think that digital scrapbooking is easier and faster. I haven't done any yet but if I did, I would definitely go with that one. It's a lot cheaper, too.
Thanks for all the ideas. I'm glad someone knows what to do with their Cricut. I'll come to you next time I need some help! Have fun!
