I really want to get the Create A Critter cart it looks adorable! This weekend I will be using A Child’s Year (because you have bragged so much about it, I had to get it) to make a shadowbox for my baby cousin’s christening. I can’t wait to see what you come up with!
I’m going to be watching my grandbaby all weekend. I would like to try out the spring mini’s I got last week. Would love to do some Easter layout for the baby but I find it hard to do a layout without having the pictures in hand. I’ve been doing this less than a year so maybe it will come more natural as I go.
Going to Michael’s today–I will check out the K&K paper. I have the mini marker holder from Amy, and I love it. enjoy your weekend!
Hi Megan! Sounds like you have a lot of fun ahead of you with those really cool items! I am spending the weekend with my daughter and her family..we will shop, eat and play! Have a wonderful weekend!

Megan you’re gonna love the stitching stamps !!! I have been playin around with them and it looks really neat if you put some zing embossing powder on them and spice em up
When you figure out how to journal with the gel pens please let us know, I love the pens with the holder and an Allen wrench will become your new best friend to pop em out. I plan on doing nothing but scrapping all weekend so maybe we can send out creative vibes to each other 
wow Megan great stuff. I start spring break today and I am headed to Hobby Lobby. I never want to give up a Saturday to go that far but since I have all week I am going for it. I am going to look for that paper. Wow 12×24. That will be so much fun. Is that cartridge in the stores? I am off to shop.
OK I a
Good morning Megan, I was so sick for awhile and got way too far behind making cards for friends, so that’s what I’m doing today and tomorrow. It’s supposed to be a lovely day in western Washington. Love the sun!
OK I absolutely LOVE those stitching stamps. Are they available somewhere???
WOW! I love the paper too!! I can’t wait to see what kind of projects you will create with them!! TFS!! Great things are at Michael’s, wish I had one close to me!!
I am going to be crafting most of the day today. I got new goodies in the mail also. Cricut rewards arrived on Thursday, new carts to play with!! My Cricut carts that would not link to my Gypsy arrived on Wednesday, so I am excited about those also. I will be working to finish up two swaps and get my carts loaded onto my gypsy. Great weekend for crafting! I am so excited to get to play.
Sounds like a winner to me. Can’t wait to see the new videos of your new products. Also, want to know if you know anything about the Zutter hand held mulltiple hole puncher for book bindking. Saw it in a video and can’t remember what site it is from. Looked up Zutter on the puter and it only showed the multiple continuos rings for attaching the papar. Any suggestions?
Where did you purchase Create A Critter Cartridge? I cant wait to get this cart! Its so dang cute! Looking forward to your projects.
Thanks! Gina
I am on Vacation for a week. Heading to oregon coast on Sunday. Just me and my husband and dog NO KIDS! I will be taking lots of pictures to scrap. I love that cartridge!
Okay, okay, you are one GREAT enabler! I always love the stuff you find… so stay out of the stores (laughing loudly). Really, your site is so wonderful at educating us on what is available. Thank you for your excitement!
Great new items Megan! I can’t wait to see what you do with those!
Love the new stuff! The Tiny Attacher is fantastic, and that Glass Glitter looks amazing! I’ve seen the girls at CC use the glitter…beautiful!
OMG the 12×24 paper looks awesome, just have to go look for it.
Looking forward for you to demontrate the German Glass in one of your videos. I got the idea of holding the gel pens with the pencil holders from you, and it works alright. The original holders are a bit $$., but the’re on my long wishlist.The cartridge is amazing, also on my wishlist.
I’m giving my Daughter Kim my undevided nursing atention this weekend. She just had 8 teeth removed for braces, poor thing, she has to take so many meds for pain, icepacks every hour. Maybe when she falls asleep I can get to my room and finish a few thank you cards I need to get done. Enjoy all the new goodies, I know I would be in heaven!!
Was hoping to do some yard work this weekend but this morning is rather chilly with a brisk breeze. Gardening is my other Passtime besides papercrafts(I am a master gardener). Do want to try for pictures of my buttercups before they are gone for sure. Maybe later this afternoon. Wish there was a M’s here so I could get some of that 12 x 24 paper but the nearest one is 100 miles away.
WOW – new toys sound so fun!!! I have ordered Create-a-Critter too and can’t wait to get my hands on it. I am in Overland Park, Kansas this weekend for a soccer tournament for my 10 year old son. Guess what I will be doing with my downtime?? Well, let me just say that within a 1 mile radius of my hotel there is a Michael’s, a JoAnn’s, a Hobby Lobby AND an Archivers!!!! Can you believe that?? Of course, I do not have coupons with me and there is no printer here, but that is ok. I totally want to move here!!!!!!!
Hi Megan, I have the mini gel pen holder for my Cricut but have never used it. I hope to get some inspiration soon from a new video you do in the near future. I’ll be watching, as always.
Thank you.
The paper’s are so pretty. I really like the German glass glitter. I can’t wait to see what you come up with. I don’t know what it is with me, but I feel so overwhelmed with all of the cute little cartridges and I just don’t know if I’d use them. I tend to be attracted to the types of carts like Storybook, Gypsy Wanderings, Serenade, and Sentimentals. I really want the dinosaur cart and would make cool dinosaurs with the colorful papers! Girly dinosaurs!
Well, Megan you won’t believe what happened to me.
Yesterday while walking my dogs, I fell and broke my foot! Bad part is we are leaving for a 2 week vacation tomorrow. So with wheel chair and crutches and walker in tow I will be getting on a ship and will cruise for 2 weeks. My doctor told me to just drink all the drinks that come with those cute little umbrellas and I’ll be fine! I’ll be on my computer checking out all the goodies you will be trying out too. So please post everything. Hope all is well with you! ciao, db:)
I’m heading to Michael’s tomorrow with a 50% off coupon. Love that paper.

Hey Meghan,
Looks like you will be very busy this weekend, I had a hard time deciding which cartridge to order but I just ordered “Straight from the Nest” only available on Home Shopping Network. Cant wait to get that one.
Have fun.
Cindy

We went to my neice’s birthday party earlier today, then came home and napped. Though yesterday I created a ‘gift bag’ out of wallpaper samples! It turned out rather cute. I learned alot just from that one…will do some thing differently next time. Then we’ll be headinig over to Zerns in a short bit. Then tomorrow church and relaxation.
Maybe I’ll see ya in the morning. Miss yoU!
1st day of vacation with my family!! We headed up to a auction to buy a car for my son. Successful!! Sunday we are going to 2nd service then back @ 6pm for Faith Kids Club Leadership party & kids get extra points for wearing orange. SO MUCH FUN!!!!
Jenn Lynn – LOL – I’m moving there with you!!!
Debbie – BUMMER about the FOOT! You need a Gypsy to sit and create without a ton of effort – you can cut everything in one shot later
Lil Green Bug – You KNOW you love me
LOL

Hi Megan – just got back from an all-day crop at the Salvation Army. Had loads of fun. I finished some wedding shower invitations and got started on the party favors. All I can say is – “Tea, anyone?”
With 1st of April (April Fools day) I put together a card I literally glued it together(he! he!)I stamped the out with many different stamps, like Merry Christmas, Top of the Morning to You,Happy Birthday, & etc. and out lined them wit black. I used your design with the ink, to give some interest. I also put a tag that could be pulled out that says “April Fools”. I had to make about 15 of then and they are all different. It was alot of fun using all kinds of techniques. Wll hope you have aq great evening will write again soon.
O MY goodness that one is next on my list…. I can not wait to see what U do with it..♥♥♥
I am also getting that cartridge and I will be looking into those supplies…great stuff!
Micki
i really get a kick out of your excitement-so glad to know i am not the only one who gets soooo excited about my new carts!!! can hardly wait to see what you make!!! anita
I am making 60 baby shower invitations using the cricit expression and new arrival cricut cartridge. I am leaving next weekend to go to Tenn. and Wilmington, N.C. going to visit family. I will be gone for two months and I am taking my cricut expression and Gypsy with me so I can show my friend what the cricut and Gypsy can do. I love showing people what I can do with my scrapbooking toys. Can’t wait to get my hands on a couple of the new cricut cartridges.
I want that paper!! If It comes to M’s in Canada I will be surprised- may have to hit up my American family to look for me
Just got back from a wonderful 4 day scrapbooking weekend in Wautoma, WI. This is the 6th year that the same 12 women have gotten together to scrapbook.
Luv all your new craft stuff u bought, especially the Creat-a-Critter cartridge. This is also on my must have & buy craft list.
Lucky you. I want that cart so bad. I too love that paper I will have to look for it. I know my post is late the weekend has already passed. We played outside this weekend for the first time since the fall. The snow has melted and it was in the 50′s this weekend. I love all the sunshine!!
love to see anything new from Tim Holtz, thanks for posting this new item.
I just ran across your website while searching U-tude for cricut project ideas and LOVE all your posts! I’ve only had a chance to view a couple of your videos but have enjoyed the projects I’ve viewed! You inspired me to get my space organized and start scrappin’ and stampin’! I’m also a newly inducted cricut owner and haven’t figured out how to do much yet but your website sure has helped! Thank you and I look forward to future projects!
