  1. My first carts that I bought were From My Kitchen and New Arrival, which I bought on Black Friday 2009 along with my black E from WalMart. I didn't use my Cricut until well into 2010, and my first project was the sample card that is in the handbook of Pooh and Friends. I gave it to our babysitter along with her payment.

  5. I purchased a Cricut, but I didn't use it for quite some time. So I had just George, since it came with the machine, but when I used it for the first time on a few pages for a baby book, I was hooked! My first official cart was Forever Young. Thanks for the giveaway, Suzyque! This is the first time I've participated in trying to win blog candy! =D

  6. Hello, I just got my Cricut cake just before Christmas and did not have time until just recently to to use it. I have been creating decorations and flowers to place on cakes for this valentines day. The school I work at has a cake day as a fund raiser for Valentines day. I am donating two fondant covered and decorated cakes. My first project is still a work in progress. The first cartridge I bought was Holiday Cakes. I am a new follower.

  17. My first project was a card and I ended up not sending it - I keep it on the wall in my craft room to remind myself "how far I've come", lol. It was awful! The first cart I remember buying was Accent Essentials, when you could only get it with the Expression? But I already had my bug so I bought AE on Ebay for ALOT of money! ;)

  20. I've had mine for about a year and a half. My first project was a baby shower card, which regrettablly I forgot to take a picture of. My first cartridge a bought was I think Paper Doll Dress Up. I went on a cartridge buying frenzy at first so I'm not real sure on that.
    Thanks for the opportunity... Betsy

  21. I love my Cricut! A friend allowed me to borrow her Cricut to make words and pictures for portfolios I made for each of my students at the end of last school year. It was less than 2 weeks later that I bought my own Cricut! I think the first cartridge I bought was Sans Serif.

  22. My first project was for a friend who was getting married. We cut a million numbers out (her wedding date) for a "Save the Date" card. And we were using my cartridge that came with the Cricut, Don Juan.
