Got a cricut from the best husband in the world

[eatatmidnight]

DH is going out of town tomorrow so he chose to give me my Valentines gift early. It was sitting in the kitchen when I got home yesterday. I was stunned. He picked it up at AC Moore in Hamilton Township, NJ last week while working in Trenton and had one of the company trucks deliver it his warehouse here. He got the $319 bundle. Anyway, THANKS to those of you who posted that special. Had he not heard me mention seeing it on these boards, he never would have thought of it. Now I only have to learn how to use it. I watched the DVD last night and plan to play today.

That is one VERY cool DH!!! Maybe your first cut out should be a great big heart for Valentine's Day.

Good idea. I think I'll see if there is a simple Valentine Card idea on the website.

Men do often think of necessities. Don't feel too bad. Valentines Day isn't usually a big one for us. He is usually gone to the Farm Machinery Show in Louisville (we say that's his gift from me) so we don't really celebrate.

Yeah, Nan, we've been meaning to talk to you about that! Your laundry is complaining that you show up late.

Please let me know if you Like it . i eally was looking into one but it is kind of expensive . I love to scrap even though I just started . I ususlly buy my stickers and use lots of pre cut letters etc. I like to stamp too so this would be a great addition but $300 Is kind of steep . Maybe a birthday gift ??

Let us know is it easy to use ?? Is it really worth the money ? I was watching a informercial on it this morning at 6 AM . It looks amazing . But then again I would buy anything that looked good on TV

Your DH is great he must really love you .

Well, so far I love it. I made several simple Valentines cards with it yesterday. My 14yod made a few too. The DVD that came with mine was very helpful. I had never used one and had only seen one used once. So within 20 minutes the video had me set up and I had completed a card.

My only disappointment has been with the message boards. They are pretty good, but I expected them to be more like the split coast stampers (gallery) website. There are lots of pictures, but not much info (such as which carts and techniques are used). I guess split coast has spoiled me. Maybe there is one out there and I haven't found it yet.

It is a big investment and worth waiting for a good sale.

And yes, DH is very good to me and I love him lots too.
