To start off, I wanted to share a fun project that I just finished for my niece, Kati. You can see the YouTube video here. I made a mini-album and a set of Princess Paper Dolls. I also decorated a tin purse for her to keep them in -- all using the Cricut Cartridge - Paper Doll Dress Ups. It is a really cute cartridge that I have seen lots of people use to embellish their scrapbook pages. That really isn't my scrapping style -- but it has a lot of cute elements that will be fun to use even if I don't use the dolls on my pages.
