My New PINK Expresson!

Yippee!

After hearing that Michael's was going to have the Pink Cricut Expressions for $100 off today, I called the store yesterday and asked them if they had any in stock. As it turned out they ONLY had ONE, and I asked if they could hold it for me for today and they said SURE! WooHOO. They took my name and told me to ask a sales rep when I got there and they would get it for me. I was all excited and simply praying it ALL worked out. I arrived just before 10AM to be the first into the store and all excited to find that they DID have it all locked away for me in the back room!
Once I had it in my CART I called DH to let him know I had it and that I was going to browse around and do a bit of shipping! After all, how could I go all that way and NOT shop too!

I very happily arrived home with my Pink Expression about 11:30 and still could hardly believe I had it and for $100 off too! . I have been wanting an Expression for months, but as soon as I heard about the Pink one and the Exclusive 'Pink Journey' cartridge, I knew that's the one that I wanted. I've been saving for a while and when the price came down $100 for the sale, I knew it was meant to be!
I got home about noon and DH carried it up to my Craft Room and I've been playing with it every since. I took lots of pics and will do a page for my Project 365 next week. I am IN LOVE with it and especially LOVE LOVE LOVE the
Pink Journey Cartridge. Being that my Mom and two very dear friends are ALL Breast Cancer Survivors, this is very near and dear to me. It will also work wonderful to make PURPLE Awareness Ribbons and and cards for my Fibro gals too! It's fabulous and I could NOT be happier to have it. What was a lousy rainy weekend, has turned out to be absolutely wonderful for me!

Here are some pics of the my new machine and my very first sheet of cuts too! I'm sure lots more will follow!

Isn't it beautiful!!!

A Little About Me

My photo
Northeastern, Massachusetts, United States
Purple is my favorite color and ironically - Purple is the Awareness Ribbon color for Fibromyalgia, a chronic illness I lived with for over 18 years. In, March of 2015, I was diagnosed with Stage IV Lung Cancer which had spread to my brain. I am fighting hard to win this battle and determined to beat it. I have a amazing Oncology Team, along with the LOVE and SUPPORT of all my family and friends! I am a Mom to two grown sons, Alex is now 25 and married to Acacia, my wonderful new "Daughter" and the parents to my precious Grand-Daughter Harper, and Brian amazingly is 30 and now lives in San Diego. My boys are the greatest loves of my life. Hubby, me and our two "Pups", Skye and Zeva, two adorable Chiweenies we rescued in 2012, all live very happily in a tiny coastal town in Massachusetts. We lost our dear "Scoutie", a Purebred Dachshund, in April of 2015. I still miss him and will forever cherish his memory. I am an avid card-maker and totally love every minute I can spend in my craft room. It's become my passion, a wonderful way to relax and is my form or "therapy".
