New Cricut!

I've had a Little Bug for almost three years now and I have absolutely loved it.  In the past year, I've probably used it more than I ever had before.  With making door decs and all kinds of hall decorations, it really became my best tool.  I used to never think I'd want an Expressions, but with hall decs only being 5.5" on my Little Bug, I knew it was time to upgrade.  

And today, that's what I did.

I ordered my Big Bug from a local company, Oh My Crafts!, and they were nice enough to let me pick my order up at their warehouse instead of paying $20 to ship my items from Lindon to Salem.  I HIGHLY recommend this company:  not only did they let me pick my items up directly, they had amazing customer service, and I payed less than $300 for both a Cricut Expressions and the brand new cartridge, Life's a Beach.

I haven't been this excited in a while, and I can't wait to play with it some more tomorrow!  I also can't wait to purchase the 12x24 mat and some 12x24 paper to start making my larger hall decs!!!  But, my room is a nightmare, so I have to clean it spotless before I'll allow myself to Cricut anymore tomorrow.  It's going to be a rough cleaning day.  :)
