I mentioned in yesterdays post how I got a Your Story Bundle and thought I would explain that a little. I know a lot of you took advantage of the fantastic price that was available a few weeks ago. There were several ladies who got 2-4 of the bundles so they could give as gifts. I don't know anyone crafty enough that would want to use this so I just got one for myself.

Provocraft was running a great Green Wedneday special a few weeks ago where you got an extra
*okie tries to remember*, I think 20% off but it might have been 30%. If you were a Cricut Circle member you got another 10% off. They were also offering free shipping at the time. The bundle was on sale for around $17 or so and after all the discounts it was less than $12. My friend Amy, aka Scraparazzi, kept telling me about the bundle and about the trimmer. I wasn't sold on the Your Story machine but was intrigued by the trimmer so I took the bait. I had $60 credit on Cricut.com so figured I would get that and stock up on blades. I ended up ordering 7 packs of blades
*okie is so thankful she did since she can't seem to find them locally anymore*.
I am not sure what I will make with the Your Story but I did ask around about it and a lot of people love it for laminating things. I did hear that you can use the Scotch laminating sheets in the Your Story and they work great. I guess I will have to find something to bind or laminate soon just so I can use it!
I used mine to laminate the nametags for our Croptoberfest weekend crop. Worked great! I'm sure you will use it and it is soooo easy to use.
ReplyDeleteInteresting, I wonder if you could just purchase the trimmer separately?

The machine is great for making holiday gifts. Only had mine for a week so far and already made 3 mini brag books and one notebook. My original attention of buying this was to make photo books for family members. All I would have to do is copy the layouts and put them into the album covers. I am making my own hard covers out of chipboard and pattern paper.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy.
I don't have one but have seen where they make some great little photo albums as well as picture books for little ones to learn the alphabet.
ReplyDeleteI missed out on this,never even seen it! Guess I should have stay in the Cricut Circle.
ReplyDeleteLooks to me you got a really good deal!!
I have one but haven't used it much since I seem to like to layer things and this doesn't work with laminating ! I'm Really looking forward to seeing what all you come up with to use this for though !!

I'm still on the fence about this machine. I just don't see myself using it much. Can't wait to see your review on it. Smooches... Felicia
