This is the very thing we needed to complete our albums (1 each 1953-2010). They arrived promptly and we received a discount. One can't beat that!

  
"Very pleased!!" 2009-09-22
By JoAnne Gryder (North Wilkesboro, NC)
These refill pages were the same quality that came with my photo album and half the price I could find them anywhere else. I received them promptly. Will definitely order more in the future.

"fits my scrapbook but not enough" 2009-08-01
By sparkling76 (tampa, fl)
The delivery took longer than other items bought on Amazon and when it did come, I was a little disappointed. The quality of the refill pages were sufficient but there were only 5 pages! No where on Amazon did it say only 5 pages were in the pack. I definitely needed more than 5 pages since it was for my wedding scrapbook! I have to say the pages did fit my Pioneer scrapbook perfectly.

By Crazy Patty
Love, love, love it! This is my favorite of all the cartridges that Cricut makes! I have found so many uses in this cart, from wonderful layouts of animals, zoo days, and card making. These are some really cute critters, I just love to pick which one I'm going to use next. Millions of uses for millions of ideas. Happy creating!

"Love it!!!!!" 2010-08-22
By jaylor
I love this cartridge. I recieved it in new condition, the only problem was it took longer than I expected for it to get here. My niece had come in from La. and we were going to work on her scrapbook for her fiance. He is a marine. But it didn't get here until the week after she left. My bad I should have paid more to get it here faster. I just have gotten everything else I ordered from Amazon so much quicker. Again my fault though.

  
"Very pleased" 2010-07-08
By Brenda
This is my first cartridge to buy on line. I was very much pleased with it when it arrived. I have 14 other cartridges and this cartridge has a lot to offer. I have grandchildren and these "critters" add so much to my scrapbooking pages of their pictures! Love it!

"Love love LOVE them!" 2010-09-13
By R. Edson
I am a 1st grade teacher and my kids love these! I use the big ones for chart paper and these for grading their papers and work. As soon as they get their work back they all stick to their nose to the paper. They are great! I am hooked on them and won't buy anything else!

  
"Wonderful smelly markers" 2010-08-28
By Becky Rose (Los Angeles, CA)
These are long lasting, smelly markers that are fun and work well. These are the skinny markers great for drawing and fine point precise details. I also find them motivational for kids who aren't that interested in art, or maybe are bored of drawing - the smells add another level of interest and sensory stimulation.


Red - Cherry

Orange - Orange

Green - Mint

Blue - Blueberry

Brown - Cinnamon

Pink - Melon

Yellow - Lemon

Turqouise - Mango

Purple - Grape

Black - Licorice

This is our second time purchasing these. Not because they ran out - but because my son wanted NEW ones for the first day of school. So now we have the spares at home.

  
"Leave it to Mr. Sketch" 2010-08-08
By Jackster (Eureka, MT)
As a teacher having reliable markers are essential The Mr. Sketch markers make the cleanest strokes and have a great lifetime. I don't really like the scents, but their a lot better smelling then dry erase markers which make me sick to my stomach. For a marker, these can't be beat.

  
"Heck with the kids -- I use these for ME!" 2009-03-29
By C. Levy
These markers come in great colors, the scents are fun and make using them a delight. PLUS they last longer than other markers -- like Crayola and Rose Art markers. Even my son's school requests them specifically on the supply lists for that main reason. And, ok, sometimes our kids come home with purple or pink dots on the ends of their noses (and I have to confess I still get those tell-tale marks) but it's all worth it. Try them; they'll change your life! ;)

  
"I LOVE these!" 2008-12-27
By Molly Koven (Deltona, Florida)
These markers are great! They have a fine tip that makes writing look professional, but in many diverse colors! It's fun to write with these and the variety of smells makes even the oldest adult feel young again.

""Secret Weapon"" 2004-12-24
By KRASSEL (SPANAWAY, WA USA)
This little glue gun is a wood worker's secret weapon. Sometimes when you are doing fit ups, especially on small boxes, clamps are in the way. Thats when the hot glue is the answer. Just a small dab and you have a tough, but temporary bond. I use it a lot to hold lids to the box while I rout them to that "perfect" fit. Then just a tap with a dead blow hammer and they come right off. Doesn't take much to hold them on and that makes for very easy cleanup. Use hot glue to hold those small hinges in place while you predrill the screw holes. I have even "hot" glued pieces to the bench that were too small to clamp, so I could carve, chisel or file a profile on them. This is a very versital tool and I highly recommend every wood worker have one.

"Awesome Gel Pens" 2010-10-26
By smallwonder
These gel pens are excellently for high lighting as well as for being used for 3d effects. I have tried most of these and can find no fault with them. I do suggest if you are filling in a areas, you move the pen slowly and let the ink flow. For journally, you can write with them as you would any pen. I will be purchasing more of these after the beginning of the month.

  
"Great pens" 2010-09-12
By J. Rosemont
I love Gelly Roll Pens. I use them all the time for crafts and coloring. This pack was very nice. It had all the colors I wanted plus that very hard to find metallic orange. Buying this pack is so much easier and cheaper than going to a craft store and buying the pens individually. The pens work great as well. They create smooth lines and fill in wonderfully.

"a reason for being thin" 2010-07-09
By Plevenmomiche
As the other reviewers noted, this paper is thin. What I realized after receiving another paper stack from this brand is that they make two different thicknesses of paper. This thin type is considered regular. "Designer" is how they label the thicker paper, normal to scrapbooking.


Other than that, the paper is everything you could want. The swatches show good samples of the paper patterns, and the colors on the paper match the swatches exactly.

  
"Printed paper stack" 2010-04-13

This paper is not cardstock, but has some great colors and patterns. It's a great product for the price. I use this paper for accenting my stationary.

  
"Can't beat the price" 2010-04-05
By A. Lewis
The paper is kind of thin, but you really can't beat the price and what's nice is the solid colors that come with it coordinate with the patterns so you don't have to scrounge around looking for matching coordinates when you are scrapbooking. It saves lots of time and energy. Also, the patterns are great for both genders if you are doing a baby book.


"Great Value For Money" 2010-02-19
By estherCraft (Malaysia)
The paper quality is not the thick good quality paper, but not too flimsy either. I would say the thickness of paper maybe 80 GSM weight paper. It contains pattern paper and plain colored paper. Each design comes in 4 pcs. The colors ranges from blue, pink, yellow, green red, white. I love brown and pink paper which this pack had none of brown and very few pinks. The designs are rather simple few florals here and there, some stripes, polka dots etc.... Each color pattern paper would not have more than 2 or 3 colors on it (so very simple). The paper with many designs on it comes in mainly retro colors and designs. However is great value for money cause of the price and quantity of paper you get.

I am new to Cricut's so maybe its just me... but i don't get this cartridge at all... I found no 'cheat sheet' that tell you what design each of the buttons make etc. It could jsut be that I am uneducated on the Cricut, but I have always found myself able to figure anything out till now.

"What is not to Love ? Great for card makers!" 2010-03-14
By Lara (New Hampshire)
Provo craft is getting better and better at making content that is more appealing and some cartridges are just packed with more than most carts and this is one of them. There are approximately 20 cards and 10 envelopes with liners to make the envelopes even fancier if you like. There are about 100 different phrases, frames, icons that range from leaves to quote bubbles and there is also an alphabet and a black out feature. you just cant go wrong with this one. It is one of my two favorites so far, the other is Storybook. I am really looking forward to the 4 or 5 new ones that are to be released sometime in March or April, but you never know until you see the booklets exactly what you are getting.


As a side note I thought I did not want this cart when I first looked at the pics on provo crafts site which look like a bunch of cards and that's it. This is why you must get a look at the booklet that comes with the cart as that will show you what you are going to get. Why they don't put more pics on their site?

"Amazing" 2010-10-21
By Jo
Microns are the best inking pens i have ever seen and the different points of lead are so good. Such as,outside outline is .5,regular lines are .35, Lines such as soft folds are .3, Facial Features are around .25, Eye lashes if you are that precise are .2, and as I am still in the process of getting use to such good inking pens but I'm sure i will find a use for the others as well. :)

"USB Issues" 2010-10-25
By Camera addict (Fayettleville, NC USA)
Save your money and buy something else. USB port was inoperable and the unit would not connect with a computer to use the design studio software. Could not install drivers either with Windows 7. Cricut has done nothing to make driver and software installation easier with Windows above XP service pack 2. It goes to show how much they put back into upgrades.

Cartridges are expensive and have limited patterns and designs.
No way to adjust size of objects or symbols past the 1" FONT SIZE.
Limited capabilities for figuring out how many objects to put on the given paper size. No way to tell if the lettering will start on another line.

Returned unit and software for a full refund. Cricut customer service is none existent and unable to lend assistance

  
"I like my Cricut." 2010-09-30
By T. Chen
I got this machine yesterday and I think it's very cool. I have never seen a cutting machine before, and it took me about 10 minutes to follow the manual and set it up. After a couple tries, I realized I could adjust the blade depth and cutting pressure to make proper cuts. It does take a few tries to get things working correctly, but I think I am going to like it a lot.

"Handy Glue Gun" 2010-10-26
By R. Klein
Being a crafter that must always have a glue gun handy for all projects - you will find this item to fit many crafting needs. I liked the dual temperature on this item. And at first I found the holder to be awkward - but after using it for a while I really like the stand. Handy Item.

  
"Blew out my fuses" 2010-08-30
By Hanziesmom
This worked for about five minutes and then blew out my electrical outlet. It's dangerous. Sent it right back.

  
"Works well for gluing foam" 2010-08-04
By Mark Harrison (Piedmont, CA)
I purchased this model for working with foam model airplanes. The low temperature setting works well and the glue does not melt the foam.

The stand works well, but is light and will tip if you bump it with any force.
It does drip, but not very much... I left it sitting for about 3 hours and there were about 10-12 drops of glue under the tip.

The controls are simple... hi/low temp, turn it on by plugging it in.

  
"Power cord contains lead!" 2010-07-22
By Grateful (USA)
I bought this to make hair bows for my little baby girl. I was shocked to see the package contains a warning stating the power cord contains lead. It suggests hand washing after an usage. I will return it immediately and try to locate a glue gun without a "lead" power cord.

  
"Lead warning" 2010-06-16
By E. Feldman
The back of the package indicates that the power cord on this product contains lead, and the user should wash their hands after operating the unit. While it is possible that it might be mis-worded and the lead is on the inside, it wasn't worth the risk for me to keep it. What's more, there's no reason for most consumer-grade products to contain any lead anymore, even on the inside. Check out ROHS for more information if you're curious about where lead is allowed in consumer products.

"Quality Pens" 2010-07-19
By Kari
I have had similar pens before and these did not disappoint me. I especially like the brush tips that allow a wider range of strokes. The varied tones of grays helps as well. I would recommend this item!

  
"awesome gift" 2010-07-10
By Veronica Vallarta (Laredo, TX USA)
I haven't really used this product myself. I bought it for my little sister 'cause she's making her own manga. She was very pleased with the product though, very excited about. She said, "they're awesome, and so cool."

I've seen a drawing of hers where she used the pens. Very nice.

"Great pens" 2009-12-19
By
I got these at Michael's for less than $15, and I think they are a great buy. People compliment what I draw with these pens by saying that they look like I printed them out. Most of these pens are brush pens, which is a really good thing because you can vary the thickness and thinness of lines pretty easily. I don't think that professionals you these, but they are great for beginners and amateur mangaka or just casual manga fans. They don't blend too well though, but they are worth the money.

"thick" 2010-04-11
By Suzy I. Galarza (Royal City, Washington, US)
The pages are thick and heavy... They are very pretty and the picture does not do them justice...I agree with the other review they can be gender neutral and are bright, but not in a neon type of way.

  
"Great Variety" 2010-01-26
By M. Rodriguez (San Antonio, TX)
This stack has a great variety wether you have boy or a girl! It offers the same patterns in 2 different color schemes so you can use them to compliment each other. Another thing that's great about these is they can either be gender neutral or specific depending on the accents and mat you put with it! They include "ABC" pages, airplanes, trains, monkeys, animals, fun squares, and many more prints. The color for most of these are primary and bright. If you're looking for something more tan, gray, or black, this is NOT the stack for you! If you like the rainbow colors and bright primary colors, this IS the stack for you!


My only complaint with this stack (the reason it gets 4 instead of 5 stars) is the pages are hard to get out of the stack. I thought they were just lightly stacked together, but when I went to pull out a few sheets from the middle, they were torn because they were so difficult to tug out. The simple remedy for this (although time consuming) is to start at the beginning of the stack and pull all the sheets apart. This makes the stack less convenient to store, but guarantees that you won't be tearing any sheets by trying to remove them from the center of the stack.
