I'm so behind! Septembers Hello Thursday

I love going on vacation but it's so hard to get back into the groove when you get back! I have a lot of catching up to do and I have to be quick! Today is Hello Thursday and I haven't even posted last months carts! So without further ado...

Two new carts for September.... Scandinavian Christmas Cards (a Seasonal cart) and Hey Diddle Diddle (an Imagine cart). Both have been added to the Design Studio Cartridge Content Update (previously known as the Font Pack).

Stay tuned for Octobers Hello Thursday. It's huge!!!!!

Some blatant cross promotion!

You all know how much I love Design Studio right? But you also know I love Cricut Craft Room too and co-produce a blog dedicated to that program.... right????

Well, if you're also using CCR you might be interested to know that Scrapalette and I just posted our first CCR challenge on the blog. The prize is any cartridge from CricutRewards.com

Head on over to http://cricutcraftroomblog.blogspot.com/ if you'd like more information!

Here's the project Scrapalette made for the challenge.

Missed a cart on the Font List!

Huge thanks to Dawn (dragonfly50) for letting me know I'd missed the font from Paper Lace 2!!!

I have added it to the list but it won't be uploaded until the next lot of carts that have fonts on them are released.

In the mean time I have created a separate PDF with just the font sample from Paper Lace 2.

Here's the link:

Hello Thursday - August 2011

Just the one cart for Hello Thursday this month. But if you like Teresa Collins and/or Halloween you'll probably love it!

Her new Seasonal cartridge is called Chic and Scary.

We don't really do Halloween in a big way in Australia yet so this one probably won't be high on my list. However, there are some days where this image would be quite appropriate in my house. :)

There are eight carts retiring this month. They are:

My World
Playtime
Sesame St Friends
Hannah Montana
Jolly Holidays
Disney Princesses Dreams Come True
Cupcake
Inspired Heart



See you next month!

A note about the Cricut Circle

There has been some confusion about which cart new members will receive when they join the Circle. I have confirmed the details with PC and here is the info:


Going forward all new never joined before Circle members will receive French Manor in their Welcome Pack, not Sophie.

At some point after this quarter (Aug - Oct) has finished Sophie will be added to Circle Rewards and you will be able to get it from there.

Edited to add new info:

Sophie will be available to order from Cricut Rewards once PC commence mailing out the carts to existing members.

Hello Thursday - July 2011

A new blog - all about Cricut Craft Room

Just wanted to let you all know that I have another blog you might find useful.

Fellow Bug Guide and message board member Scrapalette and I are putting together a blog that is dedicated to Cricut Craft Room.

If you have access to CCR or want to get ready for its release please head on over to http://cricutcraftroomblog.blogspot.com/ and check it out!

I won't be abandoning this blog! I love both programs and plan on spending time on both of them.

About to do some major design work on my Blog

So I thought I'd let you all know just in case it all goes pear shaped.....

Wish me luck!!! 


All finished for now and no major dramas! Must have been all the coffee I drank!!

Font list updated for June carts

I have updated the font list to include Ornamental Iron 2, Teresa Collins Sophisticated and Creative Memories Traveler.

There is one small error. Font 2 on the Sophisticated cart has the shadow, not Font 1 as I have noted. 

Links to the various files are here: http://myfaqcricutds.blogspot.com/2011/02/carts-with-fonts-list-updated-for.html

Enjoy!
