I like the Batman and Superman, but my ds3 is not into either one of those yet, so when he does I will get them, by then they should be super cheap. I think Elmo is darling, which DS3 loves. I already have the Sesame Street carts, so I do not know if it would be a good idea to have another one. I will have to wait and see more images on the carts before I decided on it.
I do want the Everyday Paper Dolls and In my Kitchen ones they have coming out. Plus I have four others that are out on my wish list. Oh boy.... that is a lot of wishing:laughing:

Too much at once -- I can't focus on it. Lots of them look good, but none of them look great. Two boys here, 6 & 3, but no superhero fans:confused3 I don't think i will be pre-ordering any of them. I definitely need to see more images.
However, I am sure I will be putting some of them of my Christmas list.

I think Kitchen Decor looks good as well as winter woodlands looks promising. I don't have much use for Elmo or Super Heros (I mean I could do 1 page on our underoos from childhood but I wouldn't buy the cart for that). I hope I can see more of them at CHA this Friday.

I love the first Paper Dolls not so much for the dolls themselves as for the extras, so I'm probably going to need the new one too. A lot of the other ones I don't really have a need for, but are really cute!

cricut.com has the calendar cart up in the products section if you want to see more images. I think I may want this one.

I see the Gypsy is retailing for $249! But it really looks neat. Since it's portable we could craft while we drive! (JUST JOKING!!!) TXT messaging while driving will be so yesterday! :rotfl:

I'm hoping for a really great Black Friday sale at ACM or someplace where I can get it for less than that. That's a whole whack of dough!

Black Letter

Kitchen and Bath Decor
Calendar
Everyday Paper Doll
From My Kitchen
Winter Woodland
Graphically Speaking
Hello Kitty Font
Story Book
But not necessarily in that order, LOL

I second your "UGHHH". I have not gotten one cart this year until this month. Nothing really was speaking to me and now lots are plus ones that have been out. What is wrong with me:laughing:. I got spongebob, hello kitty font, and S&S off ebay this month. I also got Don Juan with my cricut rewards. Now the sad part is I have a list, which consist of :
Ashlyns Alphaphet
A Childs Year ( I was not interested until I saw all the images)
Lifes A Beach (the more I look at it the more I like it)
In the Kitchen (thank goodness it will be awhile before this one is out)
Every Day PPD (ditto on the above)
This are maybe's need to see them first:
New Elmo (ds3 loves him, but I already have SS carts)
Batman/Superman (ds3 is not into super heros, but sometimes these carts
have great images plus one day he may like. Probably
can wait to get it cheap.)
Story Book (this one is growing on me)

I'm kicking myself for not getting Don Juan with rewards! It's not there now. They do have another one that was an exclusive for 400 points, but I'd like to combine shipping. Have you seen this blog (http://capadiadesigns.blogspot.com/2009/07/new-punch-but-thinking-about-gypsy.html)? She does previews and has a lot of great stuff with the new carts.
NemoMom07
07-30-2009, 06:38 PM
I bet they will have Don Juan back. They probably sold out what they had on hand. I had read that this happened with Daisy Chain and they got it back. It is the first time I got something with my rewards. So far I like it. Now I got to build my point back up.
morgansmom2000
07-30-2009, 06:40 PM
I'll keep checking. I'm sure they'll have something else I can't live without if they don't bring that back.:rolleyes:

You know those points sheets that are in the boxes with the cartridges? You save them up here (http://www.cricutrewards.com/) and you get "free" stuff (with really high shipping prices!).
DisneyIsTerrific
07-30-2009, 07:28 PM
I need to buy one more cartridge and then I'll have enough points to get 2 free (w/high shipping & handling) cartridges! I've been holding myself back from getting Accent Essentials until I could get 2 carts. I don't know what I'll choose for the 2nd one, but I really want AE.

I have ones I've not opened, too, Holly! I bet our little points are just sobbing in the boxes! ;)
I NEED a Gypsy. Yep, I do. Didn't think I would, but I'm liking the idea that I could drop it in my bag, craft when I had time to do it, and then just plug it in later. Now. . .I NEED a sale!!
I also need the Everyday Paperdoll & the Calendar. I think that's it! Unless DS develops an elmo addiction! :rotfl2:

07-31-2009, 07:44 AM
maybe i should open up some of those boxes and see what's inside!
are they just in the full carts and not the solution ones?
i'd love the gypsy, but then again i'd love a laptop, scal, and ds!

I'm really hoping for a Black Friday sale at ACM this fall. I think that would be a perfect gift from me to me, for Christmas, since we're saving for our Disney cruise next fall.
Yes, open those boxes! They are in both the solutions and full size carts.

:lmao::lmao: My thoughts exactly. Well my immediate need is for Batman, DS LOVES Batman. In fact, he has his Batman pj's on right now complete with cape. Plus I like the Calendar and Winter Wonderland. I'm still waiting on buying Hannah Montana for DD's obsession. I asked for my birthday, but I'm pretty sure I'm getting a refrigerator. Don't be jealous. :lmao:

After seeing the gypsy at work at CHA yesterday and seeing all the cuts on the new carts in there books I want more than I ever thought. I wil try to upload some photos when I get a chance.
1st off the gypsy- very nice and easy to use- although I wouldn't have minded a larger screen- it is a nice size though and you couldn't fit a bigger screen on it. It will come out 1st at Micheal's exclusivly at the end of September. Though they did give out a few at the show- I didn't win though. They have 2 carts exclusively for them- the alphabet is a monogram style alpha with 2 styles to the letters I noticed- one in the letters with a flourish coming off of them- the other set has flourishes in the regular letter- think tiny vines on sections of the letter- nop flourishes on the shadow- it was thick enough to cut and be lifter fairly easily except at the smallest of sizes. The gypsy shapes cart is a basic shapes cart with lots of tags, circles, ect, and most of the are all with the option of scallops. It is being sold as being a deal for $299 as it has 2 carts ($80 worth each), design studio ($80) , and a jukebox functionality ($60)- so they say it is like only paying a little bit for the actual gypsy (yes I know hogwash but that is how provo is pushing it).
New Carts- 1st four will come out to the stores that get them as part of the gypsy promotion- thery will be out in September and in each package will be a chance to win a gypsy or as a grand prize a gypsy swap in various choice places around the world with 20 frineds (not sure how that works exactly but Orlando FL is a choice). Included in this are Everyday Paper Dolls, From My Kitchen, Sweethearts, and Winter Woodland. These will not be avaiable from places that don't do the contest until it ends the end of October is my understanding.
Everyday paper dolls- the cuts look amazing- lots of new faces for the dolls- sports dolls, career dolls, baby crawling and sitting dolls- very cute stuff and tons of things on iot- I definately will be adding this to my wishlist.
From the Kitchen- many kitchen items- I think the little wisk and spatcula set were on og my favorite items- also each item has layers to it along with words with a shadow as a feature. I think they may either have a card function or a circle as well- the words are in an oval when the cut. It also has tons of tabs and a number of recipe card (roladex style) options. Another on my must have list.
Sweethearts i didn't look at and they didn't have a book out for it that I saw- It was wedding and anniversary stuff I believe from what other said.
Winter Wonderland-= another font I loved- It was chuncky and had delicate cutout on the main letter as well as a shadow for it. The cuts were very cute and it had a few options (card/circle/ect).
Elmo comes out in October as well as the superhero ones I think. Elmo has some paper piecings of elmo as well as a font on it- it also has lots of things to make- the had party hats, crayon boxes, cupcake holders, and such on display fromt the emlo cartridge.
The superheros also did not have a book out so I didn't look at them although they did have some cute make and takes for them.
The Calander One is on my must haves- not only does it have all of the months and tons of holidays through the year- it also has numbers up to 31 in both words and numbers. It has an alpha that is in circle- each letter is in a circle, this is also how the numebrs are done. Each holiday has the words (sometimes it is like - Mom's day) as well as a mat for the words and a layered diecut for the holiday- dad's day has a tie, I don't really remember the rest off the top of my head.
I think those were all of them that I saw things on. I will try to upload the photos I have when i get a chance.

Ok, I have a stupid question. I want a gypsy, but my b-day is in September, and I've also been telling DH I wanted Design Studio. If Design Studio is ON the Gypsy, then do I just need to skip getting that and ask for $ toward the gypsy? Does that make sense?
ETA: And the BK guy IS SO CREEPY!!!!

From the little I have read it has the ds program in it. Also it performs what the jukebox does. Also there are some things it can not do that ds can. I will go back and see excatly what they are.

08-03-2009, 07:58 AM
According to the Provo reps- it has 2 carts, design studio, and a juke box feature- you load your carts and it can use them all- so you would not need design studio and a gypsy- unless you want to design on a bigger screen. The biggest thing on might need with it is the car adaptor - to let you recharge and use it with batteries in the car. It s charge should last 3 hours but for a drive to disney or such it wouldn't be enough.
I will be 1st available at Michael's on Oct 4th (according to the info we were given) and then later on available in other places (hallmark scrapbook has them for preorder for $249.

We were talking to some reps at CHA and it seems like the Gypsy will eliminate the need for Design Studio and Jukebox. The 2 cartridges will be exclusive to the Gypsy and will be pre-loaded onto the system......at least this is the way the reps we talked to described the Gypsy/cartridges....so no physical cartridge....anyone heard differently??
