The First Cut Is The Deepest

 Oh WOW you guys!  I am IN LOVE with this new Stampin Up Cut and Emboss Machine.  Y'all... this thing is C-O-M-P-A-C-T!!!!  But don't be fooled.... for such a small machine, it's actually a bit heavier than my beloved Big Shot.  While I loved my Big Shot, I do have to admit, this machine is smoother and feels VERY stable!  Honestly, the pic above is right before my first cut and it was so nice, I had to keep cutting.... just wait till you see all the incredible projects coming!!!!  I'm sort of obsessed with this machine.

Here's a pic of it closed up:

 It's not available for purchase just yet.... UNLESS.... you get a Starter Kit (click HERE to sign up for the kit).  The really cool thing about the starter kit is you get $125 of product for $99 + free shipping on your starter kit.  Why is THAT so cool, well... you get to pick the products (or in this case product) you want in your starter kit because this amazing gem is $120!!!!  That means you can get it for $99 with a little extra from some additional goodies.... BRILLIANT!  This starter kit also allows you to create your very own crafty business if you'd like... there is no obligation, but it is there should you choose to use it.

I'm not gonna lie.... I LOVE that I got to get this early!!!  It has changed my crafting game!  Because it doesn't take up so much real estate, I can now keep it on my work surface to use at a moment's notice.  And not that I need it right during Covid, but afterwards, this little guy is going to be GREAT for travel!!!!

MY VERY FIRST CRICUT CARTRIDGE GIVE AWAY!

Ok ... so the time has come. I've got some BRAND NEW, NEVER BEEN USED, STILL IN THE PLASTIC Cricut Cartridges to give away over the next couple of months and it starts with one of my ALL-TIME FAVORITES...... Hannah Montana! YAY! I LOVE this cartridge! It's got the most beautiful guitar images along with musical notes and FIVE fonts! I used the regular font and the rock star font to create my Father's Day card this year (see above). I also used the Hannah Montana cart (see below) to create a beautiful butterfly (FREE Gypsy cut file HERE ), and am currently working on a project using the gorgeous solitaire diamond. There's a rose and lips and decorative hearts, even a Pegasus ! There's just so much on this cartridge.... I use it a lot! To call this a "font" cartridge is terribly misleading. It's been a long time favorite and now I'm THRILLED to be able to give it away to one of my awesome readers! So here's how to win: Become one of my follower...
