Thanks so much :) Hobbycraft have the toolkit thrown in at the moment, so 10 days to go! xx

I still think it is fabulous – it has the scope to create lots of different projects – I’ve got a long way to go before I’ve tried everything that this machine can do.

You get a matt and a pen as standard. the other tools are very handy, but you could get by without them if you didn’t want to fork out for them too, but the scraper tool especially is great for removing small pieces from the matt.

The only downside that I find is not being able to use it offline, which is something I hope that Cricut will address. Whilst so many of us are connected these days to the internet, it’s pretty frustrating when you can’t connect (downtime with your ISP for example) and can’t cut! This has happened to me a few times now and there has been some rage on my part!

Other than that, I can’t think of any other downsides at the moment! Hope this helps! x
