Cricut Ideas

Cricut cutting machines for a long time been a favourite of art and craft fans. Being so versatile, and offering the ability to do scrapbooks and card making, to name a few, the opportunities of these cricut machines are never ending. What are the sort of things that you can do with your cricut machine?

If you're looking for some ideas, try getting the following materials together

  • old magazines
  • junk mail
  • old cards
  • or any pattern/colour/texture card that you have available

Pick out from your materials any thing that grabs your attention - these can be in the form of animals, or striking shapes. Once you have your shapes in place, take your cricut cartridges and cricut machine and start working!

You'll just need a blank sheet of paper or card to attach your cutouts to. Before you glue your items, have a play around with the arrangement before you glue them down.
