I used the Cricut at a crop I went to...it's way too cool! However, I have to stick to my Sizzix for now. It's cheaper! LOL The owner of the Cricut was complaining that you have to often buy a new sticky pad for it because it has a post it note type sticky on it that you have to stick your paper to so it will be still while the machine cuts...and the pads are $10 for two. Let me know what YOU think of it, Susie...I wanna know!
