Cricut 29-0227 : Attract Font Cartridge

I am an avid scrapbooker with around 15 Cricut cartridges for my machine, and this is by far my most used cartridge. I love the fancy cursive script, it's great for more formal pages like weddings and valentine's day, but what I didn't realize until I had had this for awhile was that it also has the 'opposite' font which is a more basic block letter type of font. This, therefore, is the cartridge that I generally use on almost all of my lettering since it has options from both extremes, casual and formal.

Cricut 29-0223, Garden Shape Cartridge

I love the garden images and the special little critters like the caterpillar and the trowel set. I use some glue on flocking to simulate dirt in the wheelbarrow, as suggested by my local scrapbooking store, and the results catch everyone's eye.

Cricut 29-0589 Cartridge Storybook

ADORE this cartridge. I use this thing for more designs than any other cartridge I own, not that I own that many. It is SO versatile, and this is coming from a mom with two boys and NO girls. I use it for my own scrapbook (kind of a physical journal I'm putting together about me, and the only place I really can use my girlie supplies!) AND for our family scrapbook. There are a few birds, pretty flowers, and awesome borders, accents... I mean, I could go on. I LOVE the versatile shapes, including scalloped circles, ovals, squares, rectangles... There's a branch with flowers that I absolutely love... I simply don't have enough time to sit and write all of the things I love about this cartridge!

The alphabet does have a dreamy quality to it, but it also has a decidedly Western feel to it (cut it in brown), which is perfect for accenting pages for my family and my boys, too. It also has a fancy alphabet that is so incredibly beautiful, I use it to accent and label all of my supplies.

All in all, if you're debating over this cartridge vs. another one, I'd say go for this one, hands down! I think Cricut may have lost themselves some business with this one because, seriously, I don't even care about buying more cartridges now that I have this one.

Wild Card : Cricut 29-0591 Die-Cut Cartridge

I am totally thrilled with this cartridge! The possibilities are endless! It's not just card bases and envelopes they have phrases, frames, alphabets, etc. and you really CAN create the sample cards shown on the back of the box and more! I have one of the original Cricut machines (the one going up to 6" only), but the cards are of a decent size when using the largest size allowable on this machine. That was my major concern would the cards be too small with my machine? I am so satisfied with this cartridge and this will definitely enhance my handmade cards. It gives them a very professional look.

Cricut 29-0422 Die-Cut Cartridge

Ijust bought the Cricut 29-0422 Die-Cut Cartridge. This is amazing cartridges which I've found on amazon for only $32.54. I feel very satisfied. How about you?

This was the first cartridge I tried when I opened up my Cricut expressions. I love it! The designs are so cute and as it was my first experience with Cricut I was happy to see the layers feature! I can't tell you how much time and paper I've spent with my Sizzix sets making layers for my die cuts. This is so much easier (even though I still plan on using my other die cut sets)! It was really easy to use and once I found the icon gallery it was a piece of cake!
