Do You Speak Cricut Saturday - Elegant Edges


Welcome to my Cricut cartridge review for the Elegant Edges cartridge. My name is Gabrielle Lowe, but feel free to call me Gaby. My blog is located at: www.gabyspapery.blogspot.com This is by far my favorite cartridge and the one I use most often. There' nothing too fancy to it, it's basically just die cut shapes and borders great for cards, mini albums, and scrapbook layouts. I'm going to be honest with you, I only have a baby bug that I use sparingly. Some day I hope to branch out with the newer Cricuts, but this little guy works well for me and my needs. :)



There's doillies that when you press the shift key and make it a plain scalloped edge like this card I made:




And here's a card I made where you don't use the function key and it makes a die cut doily as seen layered under my die cut heart:




You can also make die cut shape cards like I did here with this Kraft card base:




I really love layering solid shapes on top of the shapes with designs cut into them like I did here. I love the look!




And with the press of a function key you can change a square shape into a rectangle shape like I did with this card:



There's so many more shapes on this cartridge, it's really awesome! I hope if you were thinking about this one, you'll give it a go!

Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by and read my review. If you have any questions feel free to ask me!

Inky and glittery fingers for all!
