Cute! I'd panic if I only had a little time to get everything together - that sort of stuff keeps me up at night. *LOL* It was nice to see the paper size and auto fill features on the E2.

Kimberli said...

Those are adorable, love the pink and green! Its great to be learning the new expression right along with you!! :)

2 days Robyn? Shame on You! LOL Just kidding.... I'm a planner so I think I would go nuts at the 2 day mark if I hadn't prepared everything! :o) It looks like you got it all together and they're cute! Thanks for the video... just counting down the days til I get my E2 Machine.... Can't wait til the 26th! I also want to wish your daughter a VERY HAPPY BIRTHDAY! I'm an April Baby too... :o)

So adorable! Can't wait for the release! My house is turning into a Cricut factory :)

Thanks for the E2 video…I think I am content with my expression (I just got it last November), but you make me want the Imagine. *sigh* I didn't think I would need the Imagine since purchased patterned paper is much less expensive. Now I see from this video (and your Valentine treat bag video) how terrific the Imagine is…I am easily enabled…no arm twisting needed…I think my arm is self-twisting :)

I hope the party goes well tomorrow!

Maureen Reiss said...

Wow!!! These are super cute!!

Selena said...

Thanks for the video. It looks like a lot of fun =)

Super Cute invites!!

Luria said...

Great card Robyn. I have a question . I have a gypsy so can I link the imagine carts to it and cut with my expression. Or is that not allowed. Thanks for all you do and I look foward to your response.

such cute invitations.

Mad Crafter said...

Robyn, these look fun:) I want a real one they look so yummy:) With the E2, will it be easy to put in a small scrap piece of paper and make a cut? I can't tell by watching the video. It almost looks like it works like a Gypsy.

Suzanne T. said...

Love love LOVE the card! But I was wondering, is there anything you do on the inside of cards to make them have a wow factor? Or like on this card being a invite do you have a stamp that says When Where Tim? Just a question, im always looking for diffrent ways to do the insides of my cards. And I hope your daughters birthday is amazing!

Cricutbug said...

The cards are so super cute! I love the ribbon you chose as well. I hope her party is great! You are such a sweet Mom!

Cute invites! Thanks for showing us the new machine. Good luck with all the party prep.

Have a great party!! We will be "party-ing" right along with you tonight - but my daughter is 18!! You asked "where does the time go?" - It goes into making wonderful memories with these really awesome kids - that we take pictures of and put into scrap books - win win!!

If the cartridge is preloaded on the Expression 2, how did you get it to print with the Imagine?

Kathy said...

The Expression 2 will have to wait for me. I still am mastering my gypsy. Love the invite cards. Tell your precious daughter Happy Birthday!

Theresa said...

Cute card. I'm glad that I saw you demonstrate the E2. Now I'm sure that I don't neeeeed it. I have the Imagine so the technology is similar. If I didn't already have the Imagine I would need E2. So I guess I'll be satisfied with my 4 month old pink E.

Sandy from Ukiah said...

I love your videos... I so can't wait to get the E2.. and I sooo want that Berries and Cream.. wonder when they are going to be available.. or are they available now???
Happy birthday to Kathelyn... hugs from Ukiah

sillyp said...

Now I see myself buying the C2. the imagine is still not catching my eye. The cost of the ink alone scares me awya from that machine.

Happy birthday to your daughter.

My youngest child (girl) just turned 13 and we did her party last weekend. She did a movie party and we made her invitations look like movie tickets. She would not let me decorate the house up though (that is for little kids). Enjoy that you have younger ones. When your youngest gets that way. What do you do?

pcrusberg said...

Cute invites. I bet her friends will love 'em!

ScrappyKsue said...

Hey Robyn! I love the E2. Can you you get someone to video you making a video. :-) I would love to see how you set up your camera and work around it.

ScrappyEmt said...

Love the invites... I have to start working on invites for my daughters 8th grade graduation party ...
Do you think you could give us some tips on doing the inside of cards with sayings and etc... thank you for sharing... have a great b'day party...

Craftymaw said...
