Cricut tips, tutorials and crafty creations using fabric, paper, vinyl and more are found here! I’ve been using Cricut since the first Cricut Expression (and the Cricut Create) all the way through to the Cricut Maker and Cricut Maker 3. I created DVDs about using vinyl with the Cricut, and had a line of polymer craft/card stamps that I designed as companions to Cricut cartridges, both were carried by craft stores. So, my love of Cricut has been long. I hope yours is too!
Having a party? Need to keep up with whose drink can that is? Make personalized can koozies and let your guests take them home as favors too! I’m using the Cricut Storybook cartridge. I really like that one. It has a lot of pretty fonts on it. I got those plain koozies at Michaels a…
I recently bought the Chip Decor Cricut cartridge from Hobby Lobby. I think it’s pretty cool because you can use it along with chipboard letters that Hobby Lobby sells and quickly cut out paper that perfectly fits the letters. That’s great for making a gifts, home decor, party favors and whatever you can dream up!…
When people ask me what Cricut cartridge they should buy as one of their first ones, I always suggest the Create a Critter cartridge. It’s cute, fun and easy to layer. I love it! . Not too long ago, Cricut came out with the Create a Critter 2 cart, that’s the one I’m using today….
When I saw this pretty Thanksgiving word art on the Cricut Word Collage cartridge, I thought it would be the perfect project choice to decorate my mantel. Last month, I made this sign using paint and vinyl in a different way. Need vinyl? I like to buy mine from Expressions Vinyl. I’m using copper metallic indoor vinyl…
I had such a good time making my first gate fold card that I wanted to try another kind of fold I’ve never made. I came across a whole new kind of card! Well, new to me anyway. It’s called a twisted greeting card. I learned how to make it from this video. It’s such…
Woo hoo! This is my first “gate fold” card. Am I the last person to ever make one? They are so easy! If you haven’t tried one, here’s how to make a Gate Fold card: Find the center of a 6×12 piece of paper. Fold each side in toward that center point and crease with…
Halloween is creeping nearer than these vinyl bloody footprints, so I decided that it was time to take my staircase from dull to CSI worthy. I’m keeping it super simple by using one 12×24 sheet of black vinyl and a little remnant of red for the blood droplets. I cut the footprints at 8.5″. I…
I don’t know where I’ve been when it comes to making projects using these cool bottles but I finally did it! It was super fun! I bought these Starbucks frappuccino’s at my local grocery store and my sons helped empty them…into their tummies. I washed the bottles, peeled off the labels and used Goo Gone…
Hey Everybody! I wanted to make a monogrammed pumpkin for my daughter’s dorm room. She can’t have candles in her dorm so I’m using a craft pumpkin and a battery operated votive/tea light candle. I use a Cricut Expression 2 to create my template but you could use any die cut machine or free hand…
