Cricut Imagine
Since the launch of the Cricut Imagine at CHA and then its release through HSN in America I knew straight away I had to have one of these. I had preordered it from Photo Contintental at Mt Gravatt here in Brisbane and it arrived last Thursday. So Thursday evening after work I went and got it. Then on Friday after the cartridges for the machine arrived at the store I went back and purchased some of the cartridges. I received an early Christmas present from my sister who was with me. She bought me a pattern cartridge Audrey for the Imagine. My husband also gave me a gift voucher and I used it to purchase other cartridges for this machine. A very special THANK YOU to my husband and sister. I love my presents.
