Hello all of my friends!
How are you this Friday!? I hope that life is just wonderful and you are getting ready for an amazing, relaxing Weekend!
I just have so much I am dying to share with you! I’m constantly bubbling out with ideas, and driving myself, and my husband crazy, to create them all for you! LOL 🙂
Anyway, I am sure you have heard about the new How To Use Your Gypsy A to Z dvd by now! I know, you keep hearing about it, and you don’t know what it’s all about, and you really don’t know when to buy it! Well, I’m going to share with you some great info and a fun video TODAY! I know you are so excited you can hardly wait right?
So I have a few questions for the current Gypsy owners, but then I also want to pose something to the non-Gypsy owner, because let me tell you, I believe with all my heart this DVD is for you too!!! 🙂
Do you love your Cricut Machine? YES!! (I mean who doesn’t!? and if you DON’T love it CLICK HERE!!!)
Do you own a Gypsy but don’t have a clue what to do with it?
Do you WANT a Gypsy, but just aren’t ready to purchase it yet?
Does the thought of pulling the Gypsy out of her box drain you?
Do you feel like you are creative or want to be creative but something is always missing?
DO NOT WORRY! You are NOT Alone!!!!! In fact, many new and even experienced Gypsy owners are struggling to unlock all of its powerful features and their own creative potential.
The good news is, there is an answer! My friend, we are HERE to help!!!! *Da da da daaaahhhh!!!!!*
Unlock the Gypsy Secrets with “Use Your Gypsy A to Z”!
Join me, Megan Gravener and the famous Tammy Skinner as we guide you, step-by-step, through every detail of the Gypsy by Provo Craft in this DVD Video. You will discover the secrets that didn’t come with the instruction manual and start designing remarkable and stunning projects.
I’ve had two friends now tell me, and I quote,
“This Program is the ‘Instruction Manual’ We’ve Been Missing… and then some!”
With over 3.5 hours of fun, creativity and instruction, Tammy and myself will guide you through basic and advanced Gypsy techniques. You will know how to achieve amazing results and enhance your projects with confidence and style.
Learn to design like a pro on your Gypsy and be the envy of your crafting peers!
You too can join the ranks for Gypsy and Cricut Pros!!!
Tammy and I are so blessed to have helped thousands of Cricut users, beginner and advanced, to reach new heights with the Cricut and the Gypsy. Now, we are SO thrilled to have the opportunity to come right into your living room and share our knowledge with you! So sit back, grab your remote and get ready for creativity!

Pre-order. pre-order please. I want to get one ASAP. I love the Cricut A to Z, and can’t wait to get this one. It will be great to take my gypsy out of the box and actually use it.
This looks sooo wonderful! I love my Gypsy but there is still so much that I don’t know how to use. I can’t wait to check out your dvd. Thanks so much!
This is so exciting. I just got my gypsy and I need help.
Ok – Watched the video – Now I just have to have it! I think I will start leaving the picture of the Gypsey all over the house so that I hopefully receive it for Mothers Day!!!! So now – I have to order this first! You’ve got me truly addicted to your website and wanting to learn more!
I LOVE my Gypsy. I just recently began using the mat to design the layout of my scrapbook pages. Does everyone do this already? I use 4×6 rectangles as placeholders for pictures, then place images exactly where they’ll be on my page. Then I copy the project, delete everything but the images I’m going to cut and I cut away. Love love love this method!
I’d love to get more out of my Gypsy though. I’ve been waiting for your DVD for help…which retailers will be carrying it?
Can’t wait!!
I have been waiting for this day. I have a gypsy and love it but am excited about learning how to use it to its fullest extent. Thank you so much. I will be ordering the DVD first thing on May 1.
At last! Can’t wait to get these instructions. About 2 months ago I signed up for it on your wait list – anxious to be notified when I can actually order it.
I’m ready to buy! When and how?
Can’t wait when can I order? I’t looks amazing. Can I pre-order?
Can’t wait until May 1st…just have to add this one to your other DVD.
Can’t we pre-order?? I want to be one of the first to get it! Love Cricut A to Z!
Can’t wait for this. I have not really embraced owning a Gypsy yet. This video is definately meant for me! Looks like you guys had a blast filming!
How awesome! I’m one of those that gets frustrated. Can’t wait.
Yes, I agree with everyone else….let us order it now…please
Hey Megan, I pre ordered this DVD when you very first announced it, does that qualify me for the tipsy stylus? Can’t wait. Thanks. Sandy C. sczcec@yahoo.com

My name is already on the list for the initial release notice and I’ll be in line early to order my copy too!
Love my Cricut A to Z and have been telling everyone they need to get one, even people at Michaels when I stop by there and browse the Cricut aisle.
I signed up for getting the notice when it is available. I still need two copies of it and can’t wait. I also still want to sign up for Club Ruby as well because I have received so much help from you Megan and I really appreciate it. I am a loyal Cricut Trainee and you make it so easy to learn new things.
Can hardly wait to get this! 😀
Oh please hurry. I want this DVD so bad. I have the Gypsy and still don’t know how to use it. I truly can’t wait to get your DVD. So please hurry.

I can’t wait for the DVD! I do love my Gypsy but have a lot to learn. It really helps save me time & I don’t waste paper like I used to trying different sized cuts so it saves me money too 🙂
I CAN’T WAIT!!!! I just bought a Gypsy a week ago and I am still learning how to use it. So this DVD will be perfect!!!!
Megan, how exciting! I can’t wait. I love my Gypsy, but I know that there is so much more that she can do. I can’t wait to get the DVD and really unleash the power of my Gypsy Girl! The Tipsy is a very nice added bonus. You rock!
Hi all,I bought a Gypsy over a month ago and it is still in the box. Now I can get it out! Thank you so much for all your help.I can’t wait to get the CD.
Looking forward to getting the DVD. It is so needed.
I am becoming a follower of your blog.
Looking forward to getting this new Gypsy DVD! Thanks for all your hard work. Have a blessed day!
So that is the day after my birthday and I am going to a crop that day! So I want to order first thing in the morning before I head out, will that be possible? You are such a tease! lol
SO EXCITED to get my hands on this dvd! I bought my Gypsy when it released and was so overwelmed by her that she is still in the box! I need this dvd so BAD! Thanks so much for making it available….this will be a long week waiting on May 1st! :0)
I can’t wait for May 1st so I can order a copy of Gypsy A to Z!
I too can’t wait for may 1st to order my own copy!My gypsy is my most prized posession, and even survived when my husband ran it over with the car!! Not a funny moment for me! It only damaged the chargers!
i bought your last dvd and found it to be very useful, and i am looking fordward to this one, and i need one of those finger thingies, b/c i do have arthritis and i think it would be a lot easer to us the gypsy with it thanks for all the hard work you do for all of us.
Oh, I can’t wait, but will not be by a computer until May10th… can you save one for me or can I pre-pay now. I am on the early-bird notification already. I don’t want to miss out. Please advise me on what I can do.

I’ve had my gypsy 2 months and finally got around to registering, upgrading E, and loading my carts. It’s so intimidating! Now to get started.
I am so looking forward to getting the Gypsy DVD!
I too have had my Gypsy 5 months and been so leery of using it. I did register it and loaded all my cartridges on it, but when I start to use it I get confused and shut it off. Need this DVD so much. May 1st is almost here.
