CTMH Cricut Cartridge FREE?! Which one do I choose?


  So by now you have heard that you can choose a Close To My Heart Cricut collection for FREE when you join my crafting club/team this month (April 2014).  But what one do you choose?  If you already have one or two you know how fabulous they are and making the choice might be easy.  However, if you have not had the joy of trying any of the cartridges you might be at a loss at where to start.  I have put together a short description of each cartridge for you to help make that choice a little easier.

Art Philosophy:  The CTMH Cricut® Art Philosophy cartridge includes foundational shapes and building blocks that are an essential staple for every crafter. You’ll find versatile geometric shapes, classic brackets, frames, florals, flourishes, borders, fonts, numbers, and more. With 700 images to choose from, it’s the cartridge you’ll buy and never take out of your cutter. Favorite elements include unique gift boxes, elegant doilies, and stunning 3-D rosettes, to name just a few. 

When you choose the Art Philosophy Cartridge you will receive:
~ (1) Art Philosophy Cricut Cartridge (featuring 700 images: fonts, shapes, and 3-D projects)
~ (3) Coordinating My Acrylix D size stamp sets (valued at $17.95 each) titled: Art Philosophy Tags, Art Philosophy Seasons and Art Philosophy Celebrations
~ (3) Sets of 9" x 12" coordinating chip board Dimensional sheets (Tags, Mixed Shapes, and Banners)

This cartridge includes:
1 ~ Full alphabet & number font (including a decorative layer option)
50 ~ labels
50 ~ tags
17 ~ borders
100 ~ shapes 
8 ~ 3D projects
6 ~ 3D flowers
100 ~ card bases
and much more!

The AP cartridge has loads of cards, basic shapes and a beautiful font.  If you don't have any of the cartridges I would get this one because it is so incredibly versatile.  
You can view the online handbook at Cricut.com and view all the shapes, cards, flowers, 3D projects and more!


Artiste:  The Cricut® Artiste collection helps you turn everyday events into magical celebrations! The unique cartridge takes creativity to a new level allowing you to cut themed projects and shapes using a single key. Color-coded images in the accompanying booklet indicate shapes that are linked and can be cut using the same size setting for hassle-free layering and assembly. Choosing a themed project is easy with the project reference pictures, and assembling 3-D items is a snap with the separate assembly and folding guide.

When you choose the Artiste Cartridge Bundle you will receive:
(1) Artiste Cricut Cartridge (700 images: themed holiday & everyday celebration events, shapes, 3D items and much much more!)
(3) Exclusive D size stamp sets (valued at $17.95 each) titled: Artiste Birthdays, Artiste Word Balloons, and Artiste Kudos
(3) Coordinating 9" x 12" chip board Dimensional element sheets (Mini album, Banners, and Word Balloons)

This cartridge includes:
1 ~ Full Alphabet & Number Font 
18 ~ Cupcake holders
42 ~ Holiday & Everyday words & phrases
50 + ~ Shaped cards & envelopes
50 + ~ boxes and 3D elements
so much more!

This cartridge is perfect for themed events, scrapbook pages and cards!  I've used it to make favor boxes for a Women's tea at my church, fun place settings at Holiday meals, birthdays and even weddings!  It is also one of my favorites for cards and envelopes.  



Artbooking: Take your scrapbooking to never-before-seen levels with the new Cricut® Artbooking collection! With oodles of images in each of 15 layout themes, you can create several coordinating pages for each theme using just two keys and one dial size. Images include accents, borders, titles, overlays, photo mats—in standard photo sizes!—and more.

When you choose the Artbooking cartridge you will get the following:
(1) Artbooking cartridge (700 images: titles, photo mats, overlays, borders and more!)
(3) Exclusive D size stamp sets (valued at $17.95 each) titled Artbooking Sweet & Lovely, Artbooking My Life, and Artbooking Take Note.
(3) Coordinating 9" x 12" chip board Dimensional Element Sheets (Poloroid Photo Mats, Shapes - Arrows, Circles, Banners, Hexagons, and Frames)

This cartridge includes:
1 ~ Full Alphabet & Number Font
100 + ~ Titles & Phrases
40 + ~ Mini Album Pages
50 + ~ Photo Mats
50 + ~ Overlays (perfect for both scrapbook pages and cards)
So so so much more!!

This is one of my absolute favorite cricut cartridges!  I use it all the time!  This is an revolutionary cartridge optimized for creating 12" x 12" pages in a jiffy.  With the "real size dial off" you set your size dial at 11" and then everything is cut to scale meaning no wasted paper - title is cut to scale so are the photo mats, shapes and overlays to create the perfect page!  You will love the 10 themed mini albums!

You can view the online handbook for the Arbooking Cartridge at cricut.com.  

So now the hardest part for the month of April is choosing your cartridge and I hope this post has helped you with that choice!  If you still think this deal is not for you each one of these cartridge bundles are available for $99 on my website.

Happy Crafting!  I look forward to having you as a part of our Creatively Redeeming Treasures team!

Crafty Chicks December Blog Hop


Welcome to the Crafty Chicks Sparkling Season December Blog Hop!  

We are so excited to have you hopping along with us this month!  This month it is all about the sparkle & the shine :)  My kids and I created these super simple paper trees using the Close To My Heart Sparkle & Shine paper pack and green glitter paper. 
 

First I used the Artbooking Cartridge on my Cricut to cut a 6", 5", 4", 3" and 2" circle out of each pattern paper.  Then we folded each circle in half, in half again, in half again and in half one more time.  Then we cut a small hole in the tip of the triangle we created in each circle.  We put a wooden dowel through the center of each one and attached a small wooden circle from the Wooden Badge Buttons on sale in while supplies last. 
 
This was a lot of fun and super simple to create.  We are keeping decorations simple this year because we purchased a house and are moving the first week of January.  
It's a little hard to decorate when my husband wants to pack everything up - lol
The favorite of everyone was the green glitter tree.  These are so simple - I mean really simple - my seven year old, six year old and three year old make them with a little help from me.  I made the Glitter one :)
 

Our sponsor this month is me!
