IT's my birthday!!

Well, not anymore but my birthday recently just passed :D

I'm so excited because this year I received a Cricut Expressions 2 as a present from Kream!!!

I've always wanted one, but never could justify dropping $300.00 on a paper cutter-not including the cartridges that go for around $50-$60 retail. 

So in the scrapbooking mood, I went ahead and ordered myself an ATG gun thru amazon.com- a bit much?? I don't think so.

As I was saying, the CE2 requires cartridges to work so I was wondering if anyone has any recommendations or advice on it. I will mainly be using my CE2 for scrapbooking, parties and maybe card making.
