Talk Time Tuesday: Creative Cutter Resources


I mentioned earlier that there would be an opportunity for some of our favorite Cricut Bloggers to be included in my upcoming book and here is that opportunity.
The book will have a section called Creative Cutting Resources.
In this section I will list other Cricut Blog sites that readers can go to for more 
Cricut Inspiration.
I want to include sites that are committed to Cricut projects and have frequent, innovative, and inspiring postings.
Help us find the BEST sites to include in this section of my book by completing the following survey.
Use This Survey Form
Creative Cutter Resources Survey
Tell me the sites you believe we should share with others in our upcoming Cricut Book
Consider these categories for each survey answer.
1.  Card makers:
a.)  your favorite CAS (clean and simple) blogger
b.)  your favorite detailed card blogger
c.)  advanced technique blogger (e.g. uses Gypsy, Yudu, My Story)

2.  Scrapbookers:
d.)  your favorite CAS scrapbooker
e.)  your favorite detailed scrapbooker
f.)  advanced technique scrapbooker

3.  Favorite Home Decor/ Cricut-related bloggers?

4.  Other favorite technique bloggers:  machine stitching, Tim Holtz-style, Victorian/vintage, Steampunk
For sites that conduct sales & product promotion there will be a separate opportunity to be included in the book as well.  There will be different criteria as the goal for some of these companies is product sales & marketing.  If your company wishes to be included then please be sure you meet the following criteria and contact me with your company information no later than September 30th.


The Cricut book will be called The Cricut Expression:how to make the most of your machine
Retails $19.99 and is published by the same company that publishes 
The Close to my Heart books. Gibbs-Smithhttp://www.gibbs-smith.com/
It will be out to the public in January 2012 PC will be handling promotion-we will include companies that have the following criteria
1-At least 65% of their projects have Cricut Images or use PC products
2-Postings are 4-5 times a week
3-Followers over 1000-and if you have Design Team members the combined number is fine
4-Must be willing to mention/promote Cricut book when released
5-Websites included in the book will be allowed to purchase books at 50% retail plus s/h for resale through their sites.
