Today the Design Team used the shadow feature on several Cricut cartridges.
I would love to ask a favor of all of you PLEASE.
We all know how much I LOVE Cricut!!!!
A friend of mine sent this post to me from facebook. This is a post about the Silhouette vs. the Cricut..... The problem is they only asked Silhouette people, well if I asked all of you about Silhouette or Cricut of course MOST of you would say Cricut.
I just think it is terrible that they only asked Silhouette fans....
I could not believe all that was said about Cricut without actually owning one, go figure....
I myself own both the Silhouette Cameo AND Every CRICUT machine that they make, every cartridge and a gypsy (well 2 of them) I also have 4 Cricut Expressions, Cricut Cake, E2, Cricut Mini.... I think you get the picture. Over the past month I have seen monumental improvements that Cricut has made.... please go to www.cricut.com and have a look around also here are a few of the updates for help guides.... they really do listen to what WE want. Here is a great guide and place to find more ideas and help, they are also making a TON of Tutorials and Help guides.....
So after looking at those things (just for fun).... I would love if you could go and make a positive comment on this Facebook post. Be honest but always positive....

I love my cricut because the possibilities are endless and i am always learning new things and tricks.
I Love my Cricuit I have the original Cricuit Crete and am so excited as I wil be upgrading to a Cricuit Expresion ver shortly. I can do so much with my cricut and Iuse it every day. I do not have the everyday cartridge but know I would lov it as I love all my other carridges. I have approx 10-12 cartrdges nd use every single one of them. As with eaqchone the4 possibilities arer endless!
I actually won the Cricut Everyday cartridge on your blog several months ago, but never received it, despite several emails. While I'm on the subject, I also won a Cuttlebug folder a couple months ago, but never received that either (again, despite several emails). Anyhoo, I am 100% Cricut loyal & I have no interest in any other machines. I own every machine PC has made & I couldn't part with any of them! I love Cricut because it's the original. All these other companies are just riding on Cricut's coat tails. One thing is for sure... no one can beat Provo Craft's customer service! I've seen several people completely get rid of all their Cricut stuff & switch to the Cameo, but I don't understand why. I guess some people just have to hop on the band wagon when something new & different comes out, which I am guilty of myself sometimes, but not about this! I am committed to remain a loyal Cricuteer!!

Posted on the Facebook page as Elizabeth Robertson, just found your blog and will be checking in often, love the cards and info that you shared. Love my Cricut, have never tried the other and really have no desire to. I use my gypsy for all of my cutting, I can do all of my planning and then cut.
Great cards today! I hadn't thought of using the shadow feature on its own before. :)
I posted on the Facebook page - doesn't it figure they would ONLY ask Silohoutte Users! (My name, Teresa Kaufhold). You know I love my Cricut!
The team did such a great job with today's WYEGW challenge to use the shadow!
Thanks ladies!

Thanks so much on all the info you have brought to us. I love my Cricut but must admit I have been doubtful at times.

Great projects ladies.
I love my cricut because of all the possibilities that I have to create wonderful projects like the ones above. It is so easy to be able to design new cuts with ccr and the gypsy. I have learned so much in the past few months about doing this and it make my cricut even more versatile.
I love yours cards! TFS
Ashley-Love your too cute ladybug.
Nadja-Love how you combined multiple carts to make this beautiful scene.
ClaireR-Love how you used the different designs behind the cut trees.

Oops forgot to say how I love my Cricut.
It helps me with creating fancy bulletin boards at school.
It helps me make oh too cute cards, layouts, mini albums, treat containers, 3D decorations, and other decoration just to name a few.
