And we guarantee you're not the only what out there wondering. Here’s a quick explanation:Both Cricut machines cut letters, shapes, and phrases from a variety of materials using the same set of Cricut cartridges. Neither machine requires the use of a personal computer. However, if you do want to expand your possibilities using a computer, both machines work using the new Cricut DesignStudio software. So basically they're awesome. Got that? Okay, so here's the breakdown...Original Cricut Personal Electronic CutterThe scoop: Cuts from 1" to 5.5" tall or 11.5" long. Uses 6" x 12" cutting mat. Cuts paper, cardstock, vinyl, vellum, and thin plastics. Accepts all existing Cricut cartridges. Very portable. Ideal for scrapbooking, card making, signage, school projects, and home décor. Most come packaged with the George and Basic Shapes cartridge (be sure to check the bundle before you purchase to verify which cartridge you will receive). Cricut Expression 24" Personal Electronic CutterThe scoop: Cuts from 0.25" to 23.5". Uses 12" x 12" or 12" x 24" cutting mats. Cuts paper, cardstock, vinyl, chipboard, vellum, posterboard, and thin plastics. Accepts all existing Cricut cartridges. Ideal for scrapbooking, card making, signage, school projects, teaching aids, office signs, décor, and much more. Most come packaged with the Plantin SchoolBook cartridge and the Accent Essentials mini-cartridge (be sure to check the bundle before you purchase to verify which cartridges you will receive).When it comes to selecting a machine, it depends on your purpose and your needs. So choose wisely, but be sure to choose Cricut... you won't regret it! I sure haven't. :) CriCut™ News Cricut Expression Named 'Best New Product' by Readers of Creating Keepsakes MagazineFeb 12 2008ANAHEIM, Calif. - The readers of Creating Keepsakes have named Provo Craft's Cricut Expression™ 24" Personal Electronic Cutter as the recipient of the prestigious "Best New Product" award for 2007, while several other Provo Craft products were recognized in the magazine’s annual polls. It is the unprecedented second consecutive "Best New Product" award for Provo Craft, as the original Cricut™ took home last year's honor. The awards were announced in Creating Keepsakes' “The Scrapbooker’s Ultimate Product Guide,” which is currently available online and at newsstands. Provo Craft Releases Cricut DesignStudio Software for Cricut Machines February 06, 2008 ANAHEIM, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Provo Craft and Novelty, Inc., innovator of the award-winning Cricut® cutting system, will showcase the Cricut DesignStudio™ software  at the CHA Winter Convention and Trade Show. This innovative new software allows users to connect their Cricut machines to their personal computers for the first time, using an on-screen cutting mat to make Cricut content their own. “The Cricut DesignStudio software is what our loyal Cricut customers have been waiting for,” says Jim Thornton, president and CEO of Provo Craft. “The benefits and features of this new software make it an important addition to the existing Cricut products.” With the Cricut DesignStudio software users can explore the complete content of every Cricut cartridge, creating designs with cartridges they may not even own. They can preview content on new cartridges before purchasing, and navigate through the characters by searching for designs by keyword. Cricut characters can then be welded, resized, and reshaped. With their computer connected to either the Cricut Personal Electronic Cutter or the Cricut Expression machine with a USB cable, users can cut designs using the cartridges they currently own. The Cricut DesignStudio software is currently available for download from Cricut.com or in a bonus pack from authorized Cricut retailers. The bonus pack includes the software disk, one Cricut mouse pad, and one 10-foot Cricut USB cable. The software can be used with Windows XP SP2 or Windows Vista 32-bit.  Please email us at ScrapbookingDeb@carolina.rr.com if you are interested in this software.
