So I got a Cricut Expression for Christmas this year from my Grandparents.
Let me tell you this machine is pretty nifty.
I knew I wanted to use it to cut vinyl and fabric since I'm not really a big scrapbooking person.
I ordered a bunch of vinyl from My Vinyl Direct and waited for what seemed like forever for my new cartridges to come. They were ordered on the 27th I barely got them yesterday...dang holidays and winter storms.
I started with the Sweet Treats cartridge because I kind of have this thing for cupcakes...if you haven't noticed. After trying out the cuts on some cardstock I was ready to cut into my precious vinyl (totally had a Gollum voice when I just said that in my head.)
Here is the finished product.
I'm mildly in love with it. The problem? I want to put vinyl on everything now.
I even used some to decorate my Cricut.
I need more cartridges...it's a sickness.
I'm going to maybe try the whole cutting fabric thing this weekend.
Oooh I have a silhouette and love it! Check out expressionsvinyl.com for vinyl and good tutorials.
