We Are Giving Away TWO Cartridges!!

Okay ladies… Many of you know that  am teaching at the Creating Keepsakes Convention in Tulsa in a couple weeks.
A lot of you also know that I am also taking care of my MIL who has brain trauma as a result of brain surgery to clip an aneurism nearly four months ago. She has no short term memory and I am by her side nearly 24/7.

What does this have to do with you?

Well, as I was racking my brain as to how in the world I was going to deliver a super class jam packed with value while taking care of mom at the same time, I got a gentle (okay, maybe not-so-gentle) nudge in my Spirit asking why I always have to do things MY way (which is usually the more complicated way!).  And so I decided that instead of stressing myself out for the next two weeks creating Design Studio files to give to my class, I would humbly, down-on-my-knees, beg you Design Studio super stars to graciously share a file with me that you have made.

Here are the details:

*Everyone who leaves a comment with a link to a file you have personally created will be eligible for a chance to win a cartridge. You can also just leave a comment saying you emailed me and contact me directly at info at learningthecricut dot com. I still need you to leave a comment though so I can include you in the give away.

*Gypsy files are fine also, as long as I have permission to convert them to Design Studio files as well.

*By commenting and sharing your file, you are giving Learning The Cricut permission to share your file on a dvd to the class attendees at the CKC Tulsa Convention.

*ALL files used will be given FULL credit including name, blog info, and any other info you would like me to provide with your file.

*The files will be used ONLY for this particular class and will not be redistributed in any other way.

    You are probably wondering what the cartridges being given away are, huh?

    You will be able to choose from:

    Hello Kitty Font
    Basketball Solutions
    Mini Monsters
    Robotz
    Graphically Speaking
    From My Kitchen

    I will randomly pick two people who have shared their files to each win a cartridge. I’ll announce the prize winners on Wednesday, August 18th. Thank you so much for sharing with me. I absolutely LOVE the community of Cricut users!

      I don’t have a file to share because I am a real newbie at this cricut stuff (but oh, do I love my cricut expression). I just wanted to say you and your mil and family will definitely be in my prayers. What a wonderful dil you are. I too had a beautful relationship with my mil. You are really a treasure to her and her family.
      Peace & Prayers

      I am a newbie at this cricut stuff and am trying to discover some of the great things that are posted on various sites. I just found you by accident and I’m certainly glad that I did. I don’t have a file to share as I’m still trying to figure things out. What a great daughter you are to spend such needed time with your mom. It’s a tribute to your mom for raising such a responsible, caring and compassionate daughter as you. Best wishes for you and your mom.

      I think it is so nice for you to be spending time with your mother and caring for her. She is very blessed to have a daughter like you. I have recently shared a file on my blog along with a tutorial on how to use it. You are welcome to use the .gypsy file for your class and convert it to a .cut file if you need to. You can find the link to the file here:

      Hi Brandi,

      I am so excited to find your blog. I have recently purchased a cricut expressions and gypsy. I am a newbie and was very intimidated to uses my cricut because they do not come with good instructions. I would love to win a cartrige to start my collection. I love halloween and think lil monsters would be a great inspirations to get started.
      Thanks for the opportunity and God Bless You!

      Ps. My prayers are with you and your family. I recently lost my FIL to cancer who I took care of for 9mths.

      I would love to be able to help, but I have not ventured out into Design Studio yet! I am still trying to figure out my Expression! Robotz and Mini Monsters would most definitely be a favorite with all my boys! Prayers for you and you family and good luck at CKC Tulsa Convention!

      I dont have a file to share but I just wanted to tell you that you are in my thoughts and prayers. M y father in law suffers from short term memory loss and it is not going to get better. My husband is also in the military so he is at tines gone. my husband has complete power of attorney for my father in law and in my husbands absents I have it.. It is at time an overwhelming feeling to know that if something happens I may have to make a choice for him when he or my husband cant not. But I know with gods help I will be ok in that choice. and I know you will as well. Good luck with your mother in law and God Bless.
