After much comparison, I decided not to purchase the Cricut, but to get the Silhouette SD instead.

| My new favorite toy |
With the Silhouette you don't have to purchase cartridges, you only purchase the images that you want, usually for .99 a piece. There are also free downloads every week and subscriptions you can get to make it more affordable to purchase your designs. Not only that, but you can make your own designs. I was so fortunate to find a good deal on one on Amazon and use the gift card from my husband's employer and left over gift card from my birthday. So I didn't end up having to pay very much for it, but I may end up spending a fortune on materials. (hehe)
I've been playing with it ever since I got it yesterday and I am in love. I thought I'd share a few things that I've done since getting it yesterday afternoon.

After having such fun with vinyl, I decided to make Kaytie a shirt, so I dug a plain one out of her drawer and went to work. (or play, is probably the more appropriate word.)

| Here's the shirt I found... |

And here's the shirt when I was done playing
She wanted to put it on immediately. :) |
I also made a couple of paper cut-outs and a gift box out of a sheet of scrapbook paper. My biggest problem now will be accomplishing anything else around here. :)
