Amazon has an amazing deal on the Cricut Expression Cake for $104 $79, which is 74% off! No Cricut coupon needed! It is exactly the same as the regular Cricut Expression, and cuts paper and card stock just as beautifully as it does fondant. This isn’t the mini, it is the full sized expression!
The only differences between the regular expression and the cake expression:
1.) It comes with a cake blade so you will need to order the Deep Cut Blade & Housing to cut paper
2.) It comes with a fondant cutting mat, so you will need to order the paper cutting mats
3.) It has stainless steel, food safe parts so you can cut fondant if you want
4.) It’s red!
I have this machine, and use it for paper and card-stock. I can switch out the cake blade with the paper blade depending on what I am working on.
This is a killer deal! I paid way more for mine!
One other cost saver. Buy the 12-by-24-Inch Cutting Mats instead of the 12×12. You can cut them in half and have 4 12×12 cutting mats for about the same price as if you bought a two pack of 12×12.

The photos in this fruit themed layout coordinate perfectly with the colors in the new Mayberry paper pack from Close to My Heart. When designing a scrapbook page, always choose papers with colors that match the objects you want to highlight in your photos. In this example, the pink in the girls’ shirts, and in the apples pop because of the prominent pink in the papers.
Featured Colors: Olive, Smoothie, Honey, Cocoa, Colonial White

The new Bliss Paper Pack from Close to my Heart is perfect for wedding themed projects, but would also be lovely for scrapbooking vintage photos. I love the way the neutral colors blend together with soft romantic patterns. Neutrals like these are a great choice when scrapbooking photos without prominent colors that you want to highlight. Notice the subtle use of sparkles in these projects; the stick on bling adds the final touch.
The flower on this card was stamped, cut out, and then sponged on the edges to make it pop. You can curl up the edes of petals to give them more dimension.
Make a custom guestbook out of a mini scrapbook. You can even go back in later and add photos of each guest from the event.

If you didn’t know, Scrapedia is produced in the Portland area. One of our favorite sites is Groupon which gives deals based on a group purchase of the deal. Today’s deal was $35 for $100 on a photo book, cards, or calenders from Picaboo. The deal is found in the Portland, OR deals on left side of the page. I thought it was a good price and thought I could share it. Although it is just short of scrapbooking at least it will help you retain your memories. Hope you enjoy it.
In addition to the three stamp sets and three chipboard sheets included in the bundle, the multipurpose shapes on this Cricut cartridge coordinate perfectly with tons of other CTMH stamp sets. The plastic cover sheet on each stamp set will indicate which shapes coordinate and which size to cut the shape to.
