Cricut Expression vs. Original

The obvious difference is price and the size it cuts. But aside from that, it allows you to cut portrait or landscape, cut based on a center point, multi-cut (cut base and top letter in same cut), flip feature (change direction), fit to page or length option, fill page option, and there are unused keys for future enhancements. If you don't have either yet, I would get the expression - but be sure to price shop.

Scrapbooking projects with your kids

Ideas for kids

What's phenomenal about scrapbooking is that anyone of any age can participate. With children, you need to preview the materials and give simpler options. Kids can help categorize pictures by theme to make mini-books. They can write text to go along with the pictures. With stencils, even small children can crop and design their own pages. Don't water down the art of scrapbooking, just simplify!
