What's your favorite Cricut cartridge??

[OCDstamper]

I just ordered a Cricut Expression machine and would LOVE to hear some opinions from other Cricut owners. What is your favorite cartridge and why? Any links to cards in the gallery that you've made with these cartridges would be awesome! Thanks for sharing!!!

My fave is the paper pups but I love dogs and have a dog. I find my George cartridge to be the one I use the most since it has the alphabet and so many shapes and things to do with it. I seen where "A walk in my garden" was the most popular on a survey so I want that next when I do save enough money to buy another cartridge.

I use Basecamp & Alphaliscious the most, but that's because I scrap as well. I haven't used my Cricut a lot for cards.

I mostly use my Cricut for scrapbooking...my favorite cartridge for titles is Alphalicious and mini monograms.

[ljurecek]

It's so hard to choose, but my Doodlecharms offers a lot of versatility. I can always find something on there to use for any occassion. Paper Dolls also offers a lot of images! I haven't made a single paper doll, but I've been using that cartridge frequently.

[Soonerfan]

I use Base Camp all the time. I really want Alphalicious. Those are my 2 favorites. My bf has Alphalicious and I'm saving up to get that one!

I am now changing my favorite cartridge to Christmas Cheer. I've had so much fun making Christmas cards with it using the snow globe and deer. I can't wait to start on my Christmas scrapbook. Enjoy......

[jailbirdstamper]

My vote is for Doodlecharms - out of the three I have it seems the most versatile.

[OCDstamper]

I vote TBBM or Stone Script!! But I NEED everyone that I have!!

[tazneeyore]

Doodlecharm seems to be my favorite so far. I got my Expression for a gift for Christmas though.

[cloetzu]

Storybook and Paper Dolls!

[maryscraps03]

Doodlecharms and Calligraphy

[NDStampGirl]

I don't have very many yet, but I have been using my Animal Kingdom cartridge a lot lately. I want more alphabet styles though, so that is what I have on my wish list!

[barbara s]

I use Paper Dolls the most - no question.

I like Alphalicious for elegant
Mickey Font for chunky

bumping - wanted to see if there are any "new" favorites out there or if people are tending to stick to the tried and true. For me, I use Plantin Schoolbook the most for shapes, and I like the fonts in Opposites Attract.

Don't mean to hijack this thread but wanted to know the best site for viewing the images on a cartridge. Saw this somewhere and forgot to bookmark the site.

TIA

[MNjulie]

I didn't see the site you're referring to, but I usually just go to the cricut website. The only thing I don't like is having to scroll through pictures of the packaging and cartridge itself before getting to the images.

[sprtchick]

I sold my Cricut and all 36 cartridges..but I loved Storybook and Home Accents.

I like Opposites Attract, Doodlecharms, and Doodletype. With OA, you can join the script letters and make the individual letters look like one script word. I like that look a lot.

Doodlecharms is really versatile, too.

[hsmom69]

I'd love to see some cards that you used Doodlecharms and Paperdolls to make. Anyone have any pics to share?

[wagleg]

I love Storybook and Winter Woodlands.

[Hiding in My Craft Room]

That is a tough question! My top 5 (not in order) are Doodlecharms, Accent Essentials, Storybook (gorgeous stuff in there), Zoobaloo (cute animals and font) and Mini Monograms. However, if I am working on specifics like Christmas, holidays, baby pages, ect. then I reach for a cartridge that is specific for that theme. HTH!!! A better question for me to answer might be which one have a bought that I do not use at all. That would be Stamped and Printing Press.

I know this was answered somewhere in the forums, but I can't find it. I am a new owner of cricut and only have 2 cartridges so far. I was wondering if one of the cartridges has something like SU's top note? I see so many cute things done with that shape and am dying to try some of my own ideas.

I'm pretty sure Accent Essentials has something like it.

Is this the one you are looking for?

RDeaton-

Thanks for the site. Yes, this is the info I was looking for. It's hard to decide if you will use a cartridge often enough to purchase it without being able to see ALL the images it has to offer. (i.e. Life is a Beach had way more than was shown on the box. Used it in a class and 'had to have it' after looking through the manual.)

[shereel]

Paperdolls has every holiday on it, not just paper dolls. I use it almost everytime I do a cricut project.

[lylacfey]

I absolutely adore my Mini Monograms cartridge. I am a scallop junkie. Love George and Basic Shapes. Hello Kitty is a must have for me. I have 37 cartridges so I am looking through them to see what I use the most. Other favorites: Indie Art, Life Is A Beach, Tinkerbell and Friends. I love anything with fairies.

[stampermomof2]

Storybook and Winterwonderland!

[RCB]

I frequently use the 2 cartridges that came with the Expression ~ Plantin Schoolbook and Accent Essentials. I don't have a huge collection to choose from, though, but I do use those 2 a lot!

[jailbirdstamper]

current favorite is stretch your imagination

[gails]

A Child's Year is my fav. Like everything about it actually--font, silhouettes, cards.

[hsmom69]

Looking through this thread again to help decide what I want to add to my Christmas list. ;) I want the Doodlecharms and Storybook cartridges. I was hoping to see some cards someone has made with the Paperdolls cartridge or do you use that mainly for scrapbooking?

TIA!

[chickers089]

Doodlecharms, Accent Essentials, Plantin Schoolbook, Home Accents, and Indie Art are my Fav's.
