My Cricut Explore Arrived Today!!!

My Cricut Explore arrived today!! I am so excited! So far I like what this machine can do. I'm very happy with the Design Space software. I bought a rolling utility cart to house my machines. Since the Cricut Explore requires an internet connection. I can just roll my machine over to my computer and cut away. I really like the set up I have with using a rolling cart. I did have to call customer support to get up and running. Somehow I missed the landing page to set up and register the Explore. After I registered the Explore I was able to access the Anna Griffin Images that came with the HSN Cricut Explore package. I made some test cuts and I really like this machine. I am very excited to have it!!

Look whats new in my craftroom







A couple months ago I got the Silhouette Cameo. Let me just say I love it!
I love the intricate cuts you can do with this machine!
I will be posting projects made with both machines on this blog!
I will be keeping all my Cricut machines and cartridges too.
For me I need both systems to create the things I want to create.

Secondly I got a Xyron Creatopia. I needed the 12" machine to put adhesive on paper lace.
It works like a dream. It does come with other attachments. I have also got the cutz attachment for it.  I will be mostly using the Creatopia for adding adhesive on intricate cuts, for cutting paper and the cold laminate cartridge.  Xyron did have a press release that they are discontinuing the Creatopia. But, they will still be making the adhesive and laminate cartridges. I got a good deal on the Creatopia machine. So watch for the sales if you want one before they are no longer manufactured.
I love the pretty purple color too!!  It's big but I need this big boy for large cuts.
Specifically adding adhesive to the detailed back ground paper lace on the Artbooking cartridge.
Also the Silhouette store has some very intricate cuts that I will use the Creatopia to put adhesive on that back of too.
