A Cricut will be on it’s way to me hopefully by the end of the day today.  I’m not sure what took me so long or why I was so against getting a Cricut until now, but last week, I realised the err of my ways.  Of course I can’t live without a Cricut!  What was I thinking? 

I feel like a whole new world is about to open up to me!  In no time I’ll be talking about blade depth, pressure, and speeds, and drooling over pricey cartidges.  I mean, what kind of self-resepcting scrapbooker doesn’t know how to use layers, shadows, and blackouts. 

I got a Cricut Expression on Ebay for pretty cheap.  I got 3 cartidges to go with it: Graphically Speaking, Forever Young, and Hannah Montana (yes, really!).  The HM one was a last minute low-ball bid that I never thought I’d actually win, but the cart was so cute I couldn’t resist at tleast trying.

The hardest part is waiting for it to arrive!  It was exactly a year ago that I was checking the mail daily for my Slice to arrive!  Wow, time really does fly! 

Mercy Tiara

Mercy Tiara

You may be wondering who is Mercy Tiara, and why the name? MercyTiara is an anagram of my first and middle names, Tracy Marie. I discovered this name in the 90's in grad school when we were all coming up with alter egos for one another in a lab one day. I've used it ever since, but you can call me Tracy or MercyTiara, or anything you want... just don't call me late for supper!
