When I ordered the Cricut Design Studio, I had a choice on cricutmachine.com. I could order just the software for $34.95 or I could order the software and CRICUT SAMPLER cartridge bundle for $24.95. Hmmmm....
I really didn't think I'd use the Cricut Sampler cart that much. But I have to tell you, it's got some animals on it from ZOOBALOO (a cartridge I don't have), and they are just precious! Now I'm thinking I really want ZOOBALOO. I think Cricut should come out with several SAMPLER carts featuring a combination of different carts out there. What a great way to get you interested in something you otherwise may have easily dismissed.
Here are some cards I made this morning. It's so fun just to sit down and explore, create, and relax. Love this crafting time.
