Wow-what a great time we had at our first Cricut Club meeting last night! We had 23 members show up for a great session of show-n-tell, prize drawings, food and fun!
We decided that every month those who attend should bring a project to show or tell about that involved their Cricut and something they made or did with their machine. Our theme this month was "Beginnings" and we had beautiful "first" projects with a new cartridge, folks who made their first project ever, folks who are "beginning" and finishing their scrapbook rooms, and TWO beginning businesses with Cricut! Wow! Who knew the Cricut could be your way out of this economic mess??? If you missed the meeting, you missed some great ideas!
Speaking of great ideas, next month our theme is "spooky" and everyone needs to bring a project to share with that theme AND we decided everyone needs to make themself a nametag with their Cricut to wear at our meetings so we can get to know each other. We passed around a list of all our email addys so we can commuicate with each other outside of meetings and maybe even share questions, answers and cartridges during the month. If you missed the meeting, we'll get your info at our next meeting so you can be in on all the fun!
Congratulations to Jenny Austin and Marachel Young who were two of our prize winners and especially to Stephanie Turner who won our Cricut Cartridge, Mini-monsters, in our grand prize drawing.
Our next meeting is Monday, October 4th at 6pm. This month our meeting lasted about 1 hour and we expect that to be the case most months. In November we will be drawing for "Secret Cricut Santas" so make sure to plan to be there!
