What do you all think of the Cricut? I got mine for Christmas and I actually got to use it on some recipe cards lastn ight and I LOVE IT!!! I am just having some trouble with the pressure/speed settings trying to get them right for each cartridge to cut right. The cartridges I have are George, Beyond Birthdays and Mini Monograms. I'd love to know what you all think of this product and which cartridges you have and if you like them or not. So far, I think my favorite and most versitile cartridge is George. I can do so much with it!!!
Oh, I'd also love to see some projects you've done with your cricut! If any of you are interested, I could open a photobuck acct for Cricut projects so we can post pics.

I LOVE mine!!! I just got it a couple weeks ago. I have George, Puppy Pages, Jasmine, Opposites Attract, Boot Camp and a couple more that I can't remember the name for. I found the cartridges on sale for $60 so I picked up a couple each week.

I want the paper pups and opposites attract, how are those Stacey? I think those will be my next purchase! Sometimes creativeXpress has them for $60 and I know walmart does but they don't have all of them there

I LOVE that darn cricut too! Doodlecharms is a fun one - I'm wanting that Walk in my garden one. They need to come up with a cooking themed one for all of these recipe swaps (right Ruby? LOL)
I let my cricut sit in the box for almost a month and my first two uses I was like, "eh" but all of a sudden, the bug bit and I was loving it!!!!! I need to get swaps done so I can REALLY play with it!!!

I use the Paper Pups one all the time Em! It has some of the cutest little dogs in it. I haven't played with opposites attract yet though. CreativExpress was having a $60 sale plus I had a coupon for $20 off an order of $80 so I got a few of them.

I love the cricut, I got mine when Walmart got them in back in Oct or Nov. Actually me and my sister went in half. It stays here though, because this is where we scrap. I let her take in out of the house once in a while..LOL..
So far I have the Christmas One (don't use much) George (I use the Most) Tear Drop (don't really care for) Animal Kingdom (it's ok)
I have 2 coming form ebay, Making the grade and printing press. I really wanted making the grade, so I hope it was worth it.

Doodletype is one that was shipped out with Cricut machines purchased on QVC and some chose to sell it on ebay because it is limited edition and that's why the big bucks. I'm not a big fan of it, but I think Sandi has it and she likes it.
When I ordered Fab Finds, the lady sent me Walk In My Garden on accident and later on told me to keep it and also sent the right cartridge to me. Well, I think WIMG was a cute cartridge, but not for me, so I sold it.
As for shape cartridges, that's ALL I use. I use my wishblade for fonts since it can cut ANY true type font. But I use my Cricut for shapes and I LOVE IT!!! I don't know how to explain why you NEED a shape cart, but you just do! LOL!!!
