Sales & More Sales! $150 for a Sizzix Eclips!

Happy Black Friday everyone!  I hope everyone had a fabulous Thanksgiving!  Now it is time to shop!  I certainly have made some purchases today - the deals are too good to pass up!

Below are some sales that I think you will like!!!!

I have been wanting a Sizzix Eclips for awhile now.  With a Sizzix Eclips, you have the opportunity to cut SVGs without being completely tied to cartridges which can be very, very expensive.  I have found that SVGs are just at cute as the cartridge designs (if not cuter), and they are way more affordable!  I purchased the Sizzix Eclips Starter Kit today for $150 at Archivers!!!!  The regular price is $299 and it is 50% off!  I haven't found a better deal online for this.  So get yours while you still can and hurry!  I am not sure when this sale ends.  The Archivers I went to in Apple Valley, Minnesota, still had a couple in stock.

 

Here is a picture of my first view at my brand new Sizzix Eclips!  I am SO EXCITED!!!!!

 

 

eCal Software:

In order to cut SVGs using the Sizzix Eclips, you will need to purchase the eCal software (SCAL software for the Eclips) separately.  This software is on sale on the CraftEdge site - regular price is $79.95, you can get it for $50.99 with the coupon code: 9298904!!!!!  I just ordered mine!  I will be downloading the software to my computer shortly.  I am hoping to play with it tonight!

 

Now, who wants to stock up on SVGs and Fonts for cheap?  The following SVG stores are having Black Friday sales!  These are AWESOME sales and some are offering freebies too!

Digi Die Cuts - SVG Freebies Galore!!!!

So I might be living in the dark ages, but I just discovered Digi Die Cuts - they sell very beautiful SVGs for use with your die-cutting machine.  They have a new freebie each week!  This week's freebie is this super cute ribbon:

There are 10 (yes 10!!!) other freebies available!  If you haven't already, go grab these!  Check out their store for other SVGs available for a small fee - well worth the price!  I like that you pay for the individual SVGs versus having to buy a whole collection when all you may want is one of the SVGs in the collection.

Here is a link to the freebies!  Enjoy!

Also, please stop by and "Like" my new Facebook page.  Say hi and share a link to your FB page/blog too.  I would love to see what you are working on!
