card made with the *New* Freshly Picked cricut cartridge

Hello, friends!

Well here we are the day after the release. Which cartridge is your favorite of the release? Which is your least favorite? My favorite is Freshly Picked or Cindy Loo.....I really cannot decide! Either way I am pretty pleased that there is now a Halloween cartridge! Good thing I am two years behind scrapbooking my son's Halloween pictures ;-)

Anyway, on to today's giveaway....I am giving away an Elegant Cake cartridge(my favorite from the last release). All you have to do is become a follower and leave a comment on today's post! It is that easy!

Now to the card.....



It is made with Freshly Picked and my trusty October Afternoon paper.



I cut this fantastic pot of flowers at 1 3/4" with out any trouble at all. Gotta love being able to cut super small with your cricut with out any trouble!!



Don't forget that I am posting stuff with the new cartridges for several days and each day will have a new giveaway! So, make sure you check back in tomorrow!

ps. Joy is also giving away a new prize today AND she is showing more FABULOUS projects with the new cartridges!! Click here to check it out ==> Obsessed with Scrapbooking

Have a FANTABULOUS day!!!

That is a pretty flower and pot cut out. I think I like the Cindy Loo best and Wall Decor the least. But then I haven't seen everything that each has to offer either!

Hi Melanie,

That is a really cute card. I haven't decided yet which is my favorite. I think I am leaning towards the Wall Decor, only because it has a lot of images for making cards for men.

Hi Melanie
I do not own any cake carts yet but from what I see the cuts are gorgeous for a LO or even a card.

My favorite is Cindy Lou - my least fav... is Wall Decor - I have a few carts that have cuts - which I think may be similar. But I can be swayed...

Kimbuckjr said...

I forgot to mention that I'm a follower of your blog. And I would pick the "Cindy Loo" cartridge.
