We wanted to share this winning project with everybody. Congratulations to Amy M. on winning with this great Go Fish! game. What a creative use of the Cricut and it's sure to give hours of fun still to come.

While Amy cut her patterns using the Cricut we've seen many people cut fabric using their Cricut. Let us know if you get some great results with this idea. Keep up the great projects! And above all, have fun! Thanks for sharing. 

It was a happy day in Ontario Canada when Olivia opened her new Home Decor cartridge. She found a winning ticket! Congratulations Olivia. And Theresa in Texas was excited when she opened her Stand and Salute cartridge. We'll look forward to seeing you both on the great cruise. It's going to be so much fun with the opportunity to do so many different Cricut and crafting projects or to simply relax and enjoy the luxury of a cruise. Imagine it!

Remember, tickets are available at retailers you can find here. And the cartridges to buy are Home Decor, Simply Sweet, Jubliee and Stand and Salute

Well, at least we're guessing she does or did have a class at one time. If Jenny Titus isn't currently teaching school she certainly could be keeping the attention of young people and inspiring them to be creative with her 1st Day of School wreath.

Jenny entered our Cricut Ticket contest being run through TodaysMama and won! It's not surprising though as her design was "A" grade to be certain. Now all of the Cricut Ticket cartridges will be heading Jenny's way. There is plenty of time for others to win even bigger though. The Cricut Ticket promotion is still running and with plenty of Stand and Salute, Simply Sweet, Jubilee and Home Decor cartridges at retailers you never know who will be the next big winner.

It happened today. New Cricut Cartridges are available in retailers from coast to coast!
