Cricut® Artistry Collection

Close To My Heart recently added a video to their YouTube Channel which focuses on the latest Cricut® Collection Artistry.

You may want to download the handbook (in PDF format) to review while you watch the video.



The CTMH Corp. description of Cricut® Artistry Collection is "Close To My Heart's Cricut® Artistry Collection is winning over the heart of every papercrafter."

While the cartridge still comes with 700 images, the images layer, creating endless possibilities. Artistry includes backgrounds, banners, borders and shapes that can be used in any part of your artwork.

There are two options for purchasing the Cricut® Artistry Collection. There is the traditional version, Cricut® Artistry Collection (Z3167), where you will receive a physical cartridge, three My Acrylix® D-size Stamp Sets and an Enchantment Cardstock Combo Pack and a digital version, Cricut® Artistry Digital Collection (Z3190), where instead of a physical cartridge, overlay and handbook inside a box, you will receive a card with a code on it for inputting online (the card is shown near the end of the video) which will link the cartridge to your Cricut® account. Both options will be shipped to the address you specify when you place your order.

The stamp sets that are included with this collection are:

• Life Is Sweet (D1680)
• Perfect Picture (D1681)
• Love Right Now (D1682)

All of the D-Size stamps coordinate with a cut from the cartridge. The recommended My Acrylix® Blocks are: 1" × 3½" (Y1002), 2" × 2" (Y1003), 3" × 3" (Y1006) and 2" × 3½" (Y1009).

A note about the Perfect Picture stamp set; the size listed refers to the inner shape. The inner shape "nests" inside the frame creating a perfect spot for a sentiment. At approximately 4:15 into the video we are shown the Perfect Picture stamp set and a project created using this stamp set.
