Quick Imagine Card and GIVEAWAY!


After updating my Imagine machine the other day, I decided to play around with the Better Together Imagine cartridge.  There are just the cutest images and paper patterns on there!  I just LOVE IT!


For fun, I pulled out this 4-1/2" x 4-1/2" clear acrylic card (by Close to My Heart) and thought it would make a fun background.  The solid yellow is cardstock but everything else was printed on the Imagine.


I loved this flower and bee - the flower was pop dotted all over, including the face (which is pre-printed with the eyes and smile, etc.).  The "Happy Spring" sentiment is from My Creative Time's Color Me Happy set and the flower stamp is from Close to My Heart.


Laying flat, you can see the background inner paper through the front.  I also inked the edges of the acrylic with black Staz On ink.


For the inside, I cut a scalloped circle and adhered it so it remains hidden by the larger circle on the outside.

How about a giveaway!??

  57. I had no idea you could do this with the imagine. I have seen it in the stores, but I am a recent cricut expression owner. I had the small one for a year and only used it once because I only owned one cartridge. Then my Mom purchased the expression from Walmart on clearance in January so I have acquired many carts from ebay since then and now am the new owner of a gypsy. So the imagine is something I want someday, but because of the cost it wont happen for awhile. The card is adorable. I would love to be able to do this, I always have a hard time picking out paper to use for my cards at the store so I wind up with a lot of unused cardstock. It would be nice to be able to just buy white cardstock and print everything. Thanks for the inspiration.

  125. I have a lot of fun with my Imagine. My only complaints are that the paper does not stick to the mat at all and I have had a few issues with it becoming uncalibrated quickly. It will cut and print well for a few times and then seems to be off so I have to recalibrate it again. Thank you so much for the great opportunity to win!

  131. So much to say---1st, I can't "Imagine" living without my IMAGINE now that I have it. It is just so fantastic to know that you aren't going to run out of coordinating papers and patterns when you're designing (especially a scrapbook). Second, I just love your bright and cheerful card. The colors show off so well on that acrylic background. Third, I would so love to win a new cartridge for my Imagine. After investing in the machine I've had to make do with the three cartridges that came with it. Thanks for the chance to win!!! BTW yesterday's post was great. I read it before I updated and it was great info. Knowing how long the process was going to take kept me from wondering if something had gone wrong during the update.

  132. It the perfect card to fitting the weather here today. it reminds me of springtime. I thought to use acrylic to make a card. Thanks for the idea I might just borrow it. I love my Imagine and would love to add this cartridge to my collection.

  134. I love my Imagine. I just find myself going back to the Expression because I'm familiar with it. I hope I'll be more inclined to use it after I apply the update. I love what it does, but wish there were more on the web about it.

  135. What a pretty card, I love that flower and those papers are just gorgeous!!

    I don't have an Imagine, I have been on the fence if I want one or not but lately the thought is appealing to me more to have at my hands, coordinating paper anytime I need it! Thanks for the chance to win!

  138. I love the Imagine!! Wish I had one. Soon I hope. Hubby keeps asking me questions about it. Crossing my fingers. I think the best part of this machine is that you can create any color scheme that you need. Thanks for the chance to win

  143. Next to my family of Bugs and my beloved Gypsy (who never, EVER leaves my side), it's one of the best investments I've ever made! And I'm on Cloud 9 now that I can use my Gypsy to control it!

    I love, love, LOVE my Imagine! I'm finding new and more creative ways to use it every day!

    Your acrylic card is gorgeous, Joy! TFS, and thanks for giving us all a chance to win this amazing cart!

  154. I love my Imagine~~I just need to play with it more :)

  155. It is my favorate machine of all. It cuts ,it prints. On the imagine I like you can change the colour of your images and you can use all the part of an image either as a whole image or pick and choose a layer. It is the easiest and most straight forward to use.

  156. I don't have an Imagine yet, so I am drooling over all the projects. I am saving for it and plan on getting it soon (maybe in a couple more months). Thanks for the chance to win this cart.

  157. I love my cricut imagine. Because you can color,cut and print. I think it is best. I love how the ink dry so quickly. I love all of cricut products.

  175. I love my imagine! That is why I am heartbroken that I just had to send it back. I was finally getting around to using it & understanding the features, and then pffft! It starting making an awful noise that couldn't be fixed. So back it went to PC. I don't have the Better Together cart so I'd love to win -- thanks for the giveaway.

  177. What an adorable Card - I don't yet have the imagine but it is on my "need to have" list! I love the fact that you can never run out of the perfect paper for a project - even if you make mistakes when measuring and cutting (not that I ever do that!) ;)

    ReplyDelete
  178. Love the clear card. Have only tried clear tags, but this is just adorable!!
    I love my imagine, although really looking forward to the new software. Just to be able to move around, and have more options.
    Would love to add this cart to my small collection of imagine carts! Thanks for the chance to win!!

  180. I love my Imagine! Can't wait for them to make it compatible with the design studio. I don't have that cartridge yet I was trying to decide if I really liked it or not. You definitely made mind up. Your card is adorable.

  181. Amazed! I went to a 3 day scrapbooking getaway and some one brought their imagine. I got little scrapbooking done because I was busy looking at all the different cartridges. Beautiful! Just got a machine but only have 1 cartridge. Would love to win : ) Thanks for the lovely cards you show us!

  184. Adorable card. I think the Imagine itself is an amazing invention. However, I'm really not impressed by most of the cartridges for it. So it is definitely not something I'm ready to invest in at this time.

    ReplyDelete
  185. The card is adorable, I certainly love seeing all your designs! I just recently upgraded to the Expression, so the Imagine isn't on my list for right now. Maybe in the future ;)

    ReplyDelete
  186. Adorable Card! I'm gonna have to check out the Better Together cartridge. I LOVE LOVE LOVE my Imagine. It saves me money and time! It's different functions are
    great for the scrapbooker, card maker and any type of crafter! Thanks for the chance to win this cartridge!

  188. I'm warming up to the Imagine. The cost and ink cartridges have been the biggest determent. Love the card! It's one of the reasons I'm starting to think on the positive end. :-)

  189. Adorable card! I would love to win this cart. I don't have many cartridges for my Imagine b/c of the cost. Thanks for the give-away :)

  192. This card is adorable - I love the use of the acrylic and the "happy flower"! I like the Imagine because you will always have the right color of paper and if you want to make something in a hurry everything coordinates. I don't have this cartrtidge yet and would love to add it to my collection - thanks for the chance!

  193. I've seen some cute projects come out of the Imagine. I hope to have one someday.

  194. I am so excited about this giveaway! I have an Imagine and haven't even tried it yet. I have been afraid because of all the problems. I think now is the time to update and try. I love the card. Thank you!
