CRICUT CREATE and Don Juan Cartridge (Herrin) $145

2009-12-06T11:04:24-06:00

I purchased this Cricut brand new in box with the Don Juan cartridge with the hopes of using it for some scrapbooking. I have realized I just don't have time to use it. I have used this for one project and haven't had time to use it since. No need to keep it! This CRICUT is still under the manufacturer's warranty for 11 more months. This is a no worry purchase! Two mats are included, although one needs to be "re-stickied" with a Zinsser glue stick. The other mat was used for one cut. The instructions, software, etc are all still in the packaging. The machine itself is about $189 at Walmart WITHOUT the cartridge. Don Juan inclused Christmas patterns! Great for Christmas tags, cards, etc!!! Please contact me with any questions about this machine. Thanks!

CRICUT CREATE and Don Juan Cartridge (Herrin) $145

2009-11-30T21:02:39-06:00

This is a new Cricut Create (I bought it new in November 09) that I used for one project. It has all the original information with it that hasn't been opened. Also included is a Don Juan cartridge which has some Christmas options on it for you! There are two mats, one isn't very sticky as the project I used it for was fabric. I have read it can be "re-stickied" with Zinsser glue stick (I saw it on youtube) The other mat was used one time. I just realized although this machine is "super cool," I just do not think I will use it regularly. I believe this retails at Walmart for $189 and does NOT include the cartridge.... My loss, your gain!!
