Now that you’re more
familiar with Cricut
Explore One™, Cricut
Explore Air™ and Cricut
Design Space™, it’s time to chat about some of the really neat things you
can create when you put it all together.
As you’re getting familiar with
your Cricut machine, it’s a great idea to take advantage of the free Make
it Now™ projects and images that you get with Cricut Design Space™.
For example, check out this adorable 3D
Hot Air Balloons Mobile. It’s a fun, easy starter project and makes for the
perfect baby shower or toddler’s birthday gift (and can you believe it's made
with felt?). And what’s a gift without a card? Cricut has an incredible
selection of card examples made with Cricut Explore machines. There’s even a
whole selection dedicated to everything baby, which is where I came across this
cute baby
shower card.
Birthday
What better way to tell someone how
special they are than with a hand/Cricut-made card and gift? This super fun shaker
card is perfect for a 21+ birthday. And even if you purchase a gift, you can
always use your Cricut Explore machine to personalize it. For example, if you
bought a friend a purse or a wallet, you could use your machine to monogram it
with their initials. Or if you bought them a plain shirt or sweater, you could
customize it with a fun image or statement.
I love this sparkly pineapple t-shirt.
All you need is a blank shirt, a roll of Cricut Iron-on, and images from the
Cricut® Summer Love image set.
Pool Party
Soak up the summer
fun with a pool party! You can use your Cricut Explore to create everything from
invitations to decorations. Here are some really creative ideas for how to add
some special splash to a pool
party.
Engagement/Wedding
Make your own beautiful table
decorations, banners, party favor boxes, cards, and more for the happy couple in
just a few minutes! You’ll find some really impressive ideas in Cricut’s Design
Space, such as this lovely Mr.
& Mrs. card.
There are an unbelievable number of project
examples in the Design Space, which are categorized by type (e.g. baby,
holidays, home décor, school, food, etc.) and by level (easy, moderate, and
advanced). You can also find a ton of great ideas for projects on Cricut's
Blog and Pinterest page.
The summer season is a perfect time to get your very own Cricut machine
and familiarize yourself with Design Space and all the incredible projects you
can create. Try out a few projects each month and you’ll be amazed at how easy
it is. By the time the holiday season rolls around, you’ll be a Cricut pro and
will wow your friends and family with your stunning crafting skills!
Happy crafting!
