hometowncandles Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 Ok, so I know I'm probably one of the last people on earth to get a Cricut but, I finally got one for Christmas this year! So what are some of your must haves, tips and tricks? I'm psyched to get started creating my little heart out J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vicky_CO Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 I have no tips but I am so jealous. I have always wanted on but have never been able to justify the expense. I can not wait to see what you come up with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
se2653 Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 I have a cricut expression and I do love it- I don't use it as much as I should though. I have Plantin Schoolbook, Graphically Speaking, Jasmine, Opposites Attract, and Tags, bags, boxes and more. Depends what you want to do with it- there are so many possibilities! I like doing vinyl lettering, so I got more programs with letters in different fonts. I love the TBB&M one, its fun doing the little boxes. I researched a bunch on line- now you just gave me inspiration on what to do during our cold weather coming up in the next few days (high of about -24 on Monday, schools have already been called off). You'll have to share what you end up doing on your cricut! Have fun and experiment with different things. I checked out sales which helped with getting the programs for less too. Also, check out some tutorials on line- helps add to the inspiration! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TallTayl Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 I secretly wanted a cricut for a long while. Knowing myself all too well it would never be used to its potential. I would love to see what you do with it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scented Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 (edited) We love our cricut, but we're also very limited in what we use it for. Definitely be prepared to get more mats though. Blades seemed to hang in there quite well. And check out the videos on it. Edited January 4, 2014 by Scented Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
