Cricut Fun

Wow! I am so excited about our new Cricut Art Philosophy Collection!  It has truly breathed new life into our business!  I hope you will embrace the newest innovation that CTMH has brought to the stamping and scrapbooking industry.  Jeanette has given us a product that will allow us to introduce stamping to a whole new audience.
There are so many papercrafters out there who have not incorporated stamping into their projects.  If you don't have a Cricut machine, my recommendation is to purchase the Cricut Expression 12 inch machine.  I feel you get the biggest bang for your buck.  If you look for a sale, you should be able to purchase one for around $200.00 or less.  You will also need additional mats, blades and the spatula tool.

I have had so much fun playing with the different images on the machine - with over 700 there will be plenty to share with your customers for many months to come!  I LOVE using our new heavier weight B&T papers to create beautiful projects, faster, simpler and easier.

At our Washington team meeting this past Saturday, I took a poll to see how many we as a group had sold.  There were 18 consultants in attendance and we had sold 81 Cricut Art Philosophy Collections in the first 27 days since it's release!  Leave me a comment and let me know your thoughts on this great new product.  I would love to see your Cricut creations.  Email me photos so I can share them with the team!
