Finally!

I finally got my new cricut out!
I made myself wait and put it under the Christmas tree and then I decided I needed to get some other tasks done before I could "reward" myself. So today I did my first project on my new Cricut! I made a video so you will see its debut soon! I know you might be shocked that I didn't get the plum one, but I was thinking ahead to how my future craft room will be decorated and I couldn't have a plum machine against a purple wall!!
Hope you are all having a great day! I have been super multitasking and have been working on two projects!! One is a video, look for it this weekend!! (wish I could edit as fast as Robyn) And the other I hope finish tonight and post pictures of tomorrow!!!

Really pretty machine. I wanted to get a pretty colored one, but figured I could just use that money to get more carts. LOL...
I'm having 30 days of Disney on my blog if you would like to come over and check it out.
Thanks,
Robin

OOOOOH so pretty! The green will look good against the purple wall!! I was wanting the plum one sooooo bad, but my E is working great, so I couldn't get one just for the color (according to my husband)!

Diana Joy said...

Wow; you have willpower not to have opened it before now. I opened mine right after I got it but was afraid to touch it. Not like it would bite me or anything. Looking forward to your videos.

The green is pretty! Don't feel bad about waiting this long to open it up...my plum one is still in the box that I picked it up from Wal-Mart Site to Store in. :) Maybe I'll open it up this weekend. :)

CA Scrapper said...

Love the lime green Cricut! I thought for sure you would have the plum one but you are right, would not look good against a purple wall. Have fun!

Edna Marie said...

WOW!!!! I soooo love that color how fun and cheerful

Congrats on everything. The Land and the new cricut. Enjoy both with health. Lisa aka dianasmommie@yahoo.com

I was actually shocked when Robyn posted on Black Friday that you got a green machine. But, I was excited because that is the same color I got! I was trying to decide between the aqua, lime, and plum. When I got to the store and saw them, it made the decision harder. But I choose the green one. And since my "craft" room has pink, green, and purple I didn't think I could go wrong with the green one.

The green one is gorgeous Karlee. Have fun!!!!

miranda said...

I'm glad I'm not the only one who doesn't let herself do "fun" things until I've done enough "real" stuff first. lol. I almost think I enjoy those days better too because then I feel like I've earned it :). Love the Green Cricut! But my craft room will someday BE green so I think for now I'll just stick to my original colored cricut. Can't wait to see your projects!

Cindy Stark said...

Don't worry...I got my teal one on Christmas and I haven't cut ANYTHING yet...she's really pretty on my desk. I think since I have been used to cutting 6x12 I am sort of afraid?!? Weird, huh? Looking forward to your video.

It's a beauty! I think it will look great in your purple room. Way to go finishing other projects first.

Jim and April said...

ohhh LOVE the color! I was looking at these the other day at walmart...is there any reason why they seem a bit cheaper than the regular white cricuts? are they fully cricuts and do exact same things as the white ones?

Court said...

I have been trying to find one on super sale in green. SO jealous of yours and so happy you finally rewarded yourself and brought it out! :)

ShelsStudio said...

Beautiful Green!!! Can't wait to watch video, thx for sharing:)

sasha said...

I think it was a good colour choice. Green looks great against purple

Selena O'Donnell said...

Karlee, I love it! It's totally going to 'pop' against your purple walls. I have the regular white one, but would love some lime green vinyl to spruce it up and match yours! =)

how about Karlee's Krafty Korner....ah just a thought....

Dayami said...

Love it! I got the same one. Although I have to admit that when they come out with the hot pink one (I know they will, I am praying they do!) this one will be replaced. ha!
Did you find this one to be less noisy than the other one? I did.
Cant wait to see the video!
Hugs,
Dayami
