Making the most of your Cricut

Published by danahinders at 3:10 pm under Design and typography tips Edit This

Although I do love my Cricut, it’s definitely the most expensive scrapbooking tool I’ve ever purchased. However, it does have uses other than making layouts. I recently purchased the Cricut Home Accents cartridge, which is a smaller shape cartridge featuring swirls, photo corners, birds, butterflies, and other miscellaneous decorative designs. When used with the Cricut vinyl, you can make large transfers that mimic the look of customized wall art. Since my husband and I recently purchased our first home, I decided this was an excellent investment.

Other uses for the Cricut include:

  • Cardmaking
  • Creating gift tags for birthday and Christmas presents
  • Decorating bulletin boards in a child’s room
  • Making shapes for collage craft projects
  • Cheap Christmas ornaments – cut stars and other shapes from your favorite patterned paper scraps
