CTMH just unveiled their latest Cricut offering at the 2015 Convention and I was THRILLED to get my hands on it!  This cartridge is full of icons, detailed sentiment cuts, banners, shapes and more!  It's almost like an Art Philosophy 2.0 cartridge - chock full of all kinds of useful shapes, icons, banners and phrases!

What's New with this Cartridge:
1.  The physical cartridge comes with the brand new Enchantment Palette Color cardstock (we used to do White Daisy) plus three awesome D size stamp sets for $99!
2.  You can now do a DOWNLOAD CODE bundle for just $79!  You'll get a code for the cart PLUS the Enchantment Cardstock and the same D size sets but save $20!  Ladies - the stamps and cardstock ALONE are worth $68.35 so its like you are paying $10.65 for this cartridge!
3.  The August SOTM does coordinate with the cartridge!  In my video I'll show you the sizes and the page numbers for each cut PLUS I'll post a photo in a blog post later today featuring the August SOTM with the stamp cuts.

If you are like me, the black and white images of the handbook just don't do it justice so here is a quick video I did showing the handbook page by page.  Don't worry, if you like just the black and white images you can see that too at the bottom of the post!  

If you are receiving this via e-mail you won't see the video unless you click out to the title of this post and visit my blog.  It's worth it so come visit!

Here is the link to the handbook so you can see the images and fall in love!

Artfully Sent Explore Design Space Sizing Cheat Sheet - download a FREE copy!

www.Paige.CTMH.com

Artfully Sent was designed around the E2 machine and older so for people with those machines - use the sizing as indicated in the handbook.  Cards can be adjusted in size but some of the details in the cuts may lose their sharpness at smaller sizes.  If it looks pretty intricate, cut it at the sizes shown.

For those of us with the new Explore machine, the sizing has to be adjusted to create the size cards we want.  The Explore has such detailed cuts that really you can make your cards at any size so a 5x7" card can easily be changed to a 4.25x5.5".  I've spent several hours putting together a document with the guiding principles for adjusting the sizes of cuts to get any size card as well as specifics for using vertical and horizontal fold cards, envelopes and liners, Pocket Cards and the Sleeve cards.  I love getting feedback on my documents to make them as useful as possible so feel free to drop me a note.

Organizing Picture My Life cards using a Medium Organizer and this FREE Explore Tabbed Divider File

Today I was busy getting ready for my Picture My Life Buffet that is happening this Friday, 3 October from 7-9PM.  This is an open style class where people can drop in and make a few pocket style memory keeping pages using our Picture My Life kits at an a-la-carte price.  I have 10 of the PML kits so far and I wanted to make it easy for people to find the theme or color to match their pictures so this is what I created!

I've used a Medium Organizer #Z4139 and created a tabbed divider for both the 4x6" card sections and the 3x4" card sections using my Cricut Explore and Artbooking.   Each card has the name of the kit, the basic themes of the kit and the colors to make it easy to match by theme or color.  YAY!  

I love the way this came out and I'm sure the people who are coming to the class will appreciate having all the information at the ready!

Want to get a copy of the cut file?  I'm posting it for free but would love a follow in return!  You can follow me here on my blog or Like my page on Facebook at  https://www.facebook.com/Stampologist.

(Yes, I'm shamelessly trying to get more likes, but hey - Free File!)
