Cricut

So, those of you in the craft world... i'm sure you know what i'm talking about when i say " I have to have Cricut!" Okay, so i don't have to have one... in fact, i can't even justify spending the money on one... i've lived my entire life with out one... i've done plenty of craft projects with out one... however.... I HAVE TO HAVE ONE.
Well, my wish has come true... I still can't justify spending the money on one... but, I did talk my dad into buying one for work. We are opening up a new store and need a bunch of signs. we priced out vinyl signs and it's ridiculous... so, i went with the argument that Cricut can do all that.... and it's not THAT much.... and vinyl is cheap....
Well, apparently I won that debate, cause we are getting one!!!! Yeah!!! I'm so excited I can't hardly stand it. He decided that he needs to get the Cricut expression???? I actually know NOTHING about the Cricut. So, it will be a learning experience...
However, i've been out in Blog world looking at all the cute crafts i can do with a Cricut.
A whole new world has opened up. LOL

My first Cricut project...
Lindsey @ Inspiring Creations has a tutorial for these Spring Blocks. (it makes me sound like i know who she is... I think she is fantastic, even if i've never even talked to her)
Well, These spring blocks were so cute i just had to try making them... or something like it. I actually started to make them... All i have left is to put the letters on the blocks! (that's where the cricut will come in handy)
I'll try to post some pictures soon of how mine turned out... Hopefully, we'll get the Cricut sooner then later and i can start playing....
