June Hello Thursday Round 2- New Cricut Cartridges!

Welcome to Hello Thursday - Week 2!  Hello Thursday is the day when Provocraft releases new Cricut cartridges and we've got six new ones this week!

First off, though, let's start with a giveaway:



I am giving away a Pack Your Bags Cricut Cartridge in honor of summer vacation starting!

How can you win?

1) Leave a comment letting me know your favorite Cricut cartridge of today's release.
2) Subscribe or follow the blog.

That's it!

Winners will be announced Tuesday, June 21, 2011 and winners have two weeks to claim their prize.

Now, onto the releases, which are on sale on cricut.com - just click the cartridge title to head over there!

1) Teresa Collins Sophisticated Cricut Cartridge - my favorite of the release!


Photobucket
This 12" x 12" layout was so fun to put together.  All the papers are from Teresa Collins Baby Boutique Imagine cartridge.
Photobucket
I embellished the frame with some rhinestones above and below layered two of the word art selections (Family and celebrate) to create a title.  The layered swirls and journaling tag are also from this Sophisticated Cricut cartridge.
Photobucket
Finally, this "T" frame is part of an entire lower case and upper case alphabet.  Forgive the deep blue - it doesn't look like that in real life.

3) Cricut Ornamental Iron 2 Cartridge - More variations on the Ornamental Iron theme.

This 12" x 12" layout uses one of the background irons combined with Anna Griffin papers and embellishments.

Photobucket

4) Cricut Phrases Cartridge - Three sets of layered phrases and one set of coordinating cards/tags/shapes cover all occasions you would need for scrapbooking and card making.


I need a gift bag for Father's Day on Sunday and thought this "You da Man" word art was funny and definitely unusual!  This bag also includes all kinds of stars cut out from this cartridge as there is a whole feature key with layered shapes and cards to go with the phrases.  The flourishes coming off the large star are from the Cricut Essentials cartridge (the corner looked funny unadorned...).  Paper by Core'dinations.

5) Cricut Summer Celebrations Cartridge - Three designers with quite different styles contributed to make this summer themed cartridge.  Has a card feature, tag feature and lots of word art also.

Hey, a Father's Day card to go with the bag above.  OK, the color schemes don't match BUT the sentiments go together!  This is actually an easel card made in A2 size.  Below you see it flattened and then propped up.  Paper by Close to My Heart.

6) Cricut Autumn Celebrations Cartridge - Same three designers as Summer Celebrations make up this fall themed cartridge.  Note the more grown up looking images, for those of you who aren't into cutesy.

This 5" x 5" card uses one of the word art plaques on the cartridge and paper by DCWV.

  28. Actually I'm quite disappointed in the big Hoo-ha about these late releases from last month. To me they are all a re-hash from previous releases and older cartridges. Maybe I'm wrong, 'cause I'm still new to this craft and spend Waaaay too much time collecting carts than using them, but how many keys, mirrors, ice cream cones, cupcakes, cars, boats, etc... do we need? Maybe it's a personal thing. Shoot, I had LIAB, but still bought Luau and would LOVE to have the Pack Your Bags cart. Gotta love palm trees... :)

    Perhaps I would like the new carts better if the images were actually big enough to see clearly, and to see the full content as well. The last several months new releases still have no digital booklets.

    Also, I'm having the devil of a time finding the last few releases locally here in So. Cal. What's up with that?

    Anyway, sorry for the rant, the projects you make from these carts are really what sells them to me. Thanks for enabling me! :)
