I have been making cards, labels and tags like crazy. I still haven’t attempted a 20 foot cut yet, but it’s definitely on my list of things to do. I love being able to pull my little Cricut Joy machine out and take it wherever I need to go. It’s so small, portable and crafting is easy and fun with this mighty machine. I think so far my favorite is the cards. However, I love the look of the labels, it’s so nice to see what I have in my pantry.
Do you have a Cricut Joy? If not, which machine do you use? I thought I wouldn’t need or use the Joy since I have the Cricut Maker and the Cricut Explore Air 2, but I have been loving all the projects you can create – they are fast and the machine is so light, I can take it to any room and craft.
Being crafty with friends is one of my favorite things to do. Get your girlfriends together and see what everyone creates. it really is a great way to de-stress and enjoy the company of friends. Speaking of crafty friends… A few of my crafty friends amazing projects using the Cricut Joy.
The Sugarcoated Housewife made this amazing ice cream card. I love how she layered the insert it makes it so much fun. Making cards is so easy with this new portable machine. There are lots of FREE designs in Cricut Design space that you can quickly whip up for any occasion.
Sydney from Tastefully Frugal has some great tips for the Cricut Joy and some fun projects you can check out. I love how she used the smart Label function to organize her craft space
Need cute wrapping paper? I used plain Kraft paper and then dressed it up with the adhesive backed deluxe paper from Cricut. You can cut many shapes and words and they have some really adorable patterns. This one is from Anna Griffin and it is comes with other patterns.
How about a last minute gift? Don’t you love these little mugs? They are the perfect last minute gift for a wedding, christmas or birthday. They were super easy to make with the new Cricut Joy. You can find the images in Cricut Design Space.
I made these Thank You tags for a school function. I love how they turned out. I used the Anna Griffin adhesive backed deluxe paper again. I love the floral patterns it also has a polka dot and a solid colored. They are all perfectly coordinated. You can find the krafts bags at any crafty store and even at the dollar store. The tag shape is also from Cricut Design Space.
Who else loves cards? I love having homemade cards on hand, I’ve been trying to teach my kids about saying thank you and being grateful for little things and for gifts from grandparents and friends. It’s so nice to see them run to my craft room and grab a card and send it. I love getting homemade cards and really think it’s such a good tradition to continue with my kids. Cards used to be a little bit cumbersome to create though, so it was hard for me to find time to get a bunch done. Well, with my new Cricut Joy – I was able to knock all of these out super fast. It’s fun to have different sentiments ready to go. Which one would you make first?
I think this is my favorite because I am trying to teach my FOUR daughters that they can be powerful, fierce, independent and KIND!!! It’s okay to stand up for yourself and you can do it in a kind way.
I hope you show me all your Cricut projects and if you do get a Cricut Joy show me what you are making! Thanks for visiting, hope you come back.
