I like that it makes different sizes of things and I love my Christmas images, but everything else, I just don't know if it is worth it. I occasionaly use it for letters but that is rare. I use it for flowers, but I could just by nesties and they would be cheaper. I also don't like that the fact that my paper holders get unstickly so quickly and having to buy new ones gets expensive. I think if I did it all over again, I would just use all the money I spent on my cricut and cartridges and bought nesties dies and spellbinders dies. I use them way more than the cricut. I did see though that walmart was selling the expression and the day after thanksgiving it was like a hundred dollars off, so you might try there.<BR/><BR/>Hope this helps!<BR/>JannaJannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02213385415260636600noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7271165378395183312.post-86713028131414757752009-01-18T18:14:00.000-06:002009-01-18T18:14:00.000-06:00I've had a Cricut for about 2 1/2 years, and got m...I've had a Cricut for about 2 1/2 years, and got my Expression shortly after they came out, which I think was about a yeare and a half ago? Honestly? I use mine daily. I love it! I have gotten the majority of my carts from www.hallmarkscrapbook.com. They've even got a great cartridge sale going on right now. Good luck in your decision!! I belong to a DT that shows different ways you can use your cricut. Here's the blog address: http://regina-bittenbythebug.blogspot.com/ <BR/>You can get lots of different ideas for using your carts.

If you put it in a cupboard you won't use it ( like my neglected food mixer !!! ) I use it for cards and scrapbooking, I like to use the flowers especially, for some reason silk flowers don't like my cards :-)I can't imagine WHY you sold it !!!! big DUH !!!!! :-(<BR/>Never mind though, I think the expression will be good especially for gift bags and things,the ordinary one, like mine makes them quite small !<BR/>LorraineLorraine Ahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15521713728886980462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7271165378395183312.post-86858709680296781402009-01-16T22:49:00.000-06:002009-01-16T22:49:00.000-06:00I have a Wishblade and LOVE it.

You can create mats for all your titles or clip art.You can weld letters together or weld clip art to your letters. You can buy cartridges for the Wishblade but I have never bought a cartidge. There are also several websites where people sell files they have created.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7271165378395183312.post-90221159379091986702009-01-16T20:14:00.000-06:002009-01-16T20:14:00.000-06:00hey girl - was channel flipping a bit ago and saw ...hey girl - was channel flipping a bit ago and saw the Cricut Expressions on HSN. I don't know how good the price is but it was free shipping and enough flex pays that it was like $87 a month. and so i thought of you and wanted to give you a heads up in case you were interested.Cassiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13079256503268928028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7271165378395183312.post-83115132953092950672009-01-16T19:16:00.000-06:002009-01-16T19:16:00.000-06:00I bought a Cricut in September.

But one of the things that always held me up with finishing a page was cutting the title. I wanted a machine like the Cricut for years, but kept putting it off because I was afraid I would not use it enough to justify the cost. But, I got a really good deal on this so I made the plunge. Although I haven't used it as much as I thought I would have by now, I'm still not sorry I got it. I have been in such a stamping mood lately that I just haven't got back to my scrapping. But when I do, I know I will love having a machine that cuts fonts. I have used this a tiny bit for cardmaking, but I really expect to primarily use it for scrapping.Susan (peebsmama)https://www.blogger.com/profile/04685117319252711640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7271165378395183312.post-69119297244467317572009-01-16T17:24:00.000-06:002009-01-16T17:24:00.000-06:00I LOVE my Cricut! :) I don't use it for card maki...I LOVE my Cricut! :) I don't use it for card making, but I use it all the time for scrapbooking.
