me on Instagram mate simply Hall today I'm talking about crafting and DIYs that I've been doing and I have been loving this Cricut maker so I wanted to thank Cricut for sponsoring this video on supplying this beautiful crooked maker and all of these societies to help share more about the container with you so this is the Cricut maker it is a machine that cuts the most materials and just a beautiful piece of machinery I love how it's designed and how compact it is and he cut a making a lot of projects with this so my very first thought was when I would be working with the Cricut machine all they wanted to do was label all of the things if you've been following my channel for a while you know that I love to share DIY organization types of videos I am most excited to work with this machine because it is so versatile and there's always new things that I can learn how to make some in playing with the machine and I've been able to make a few different projects I'm going to be sharing with you in this video so this video isn't going to be so much of a tutorial but more of an overview of the projects that I see myself using with the Cricut machine of products that have already tried mastered and I'm definitely going to be making more as well as why the Cricut machine is right for you if you want to take a project and start it from scratch and design it on your own the Cricut design space gives you all the tools for that or you can subscribe and get thousands of pre-made designs and images so you can just go ahead and start crafting right away there's just so many possibilities this machine depending on what type of crafter you are if you just want to use it for cutting vinyl or paper or if you want to get more advanced and use it for engraving or embossing the possibilities are just endless with this machine I love that I came to cut over 300 different materials and then you can also use the pen feature to draw these are some of the different materials that I've been playing with I've been using a lot of vinyl as well as iron-on he's come into all by 12 sheets I love that they have ones that have little samplers for you to try and cricket just has an amazing range of colors and materials for you to choose from another great product from cricut that I've tried is the EZ Pass it comes with their easy press mat as well as a machine here is the easy press cricut made it even easier for you to do iron-on and I love I can do the temperature and the time and it heats up very quickly Cricut also has a large selection of blanks that you can use for your projects including things like these coasters as well as like polyester shirts and everything they use for finals I also made some coasters here from their blank C's in their musical ink so everything was just so fun and I've been able to just take on projects I didn't know I was capable of because Cricut makes it that much easier if you're a beginner and just wanting to start with a simple cutting machine to do some crafts but still with the versatility of being able to cut 300 or more materials maybe later on as you progress and learn more I think the curtain maker would be the perfect machine for you and we'll have links to the creek and maker machine down in the description box for you to shop and check out all of its great features so without further ado let's get onto the project that I've created I was not kidding when I said the very first thing I wanted to do was create some sticker labels here I have my airtight canisters in which I wanted to make some pretty labels for I use design space to kind of make my own font combination which I really love the flexibility of it and then here I'm just doing what they call weeding and I've heard that is quite relaxing or that's what people are saying and I kind of find it satisfying like weeding out all of the letters and then I'm also using transfer tape everything was pretty simple and I love how I can just customize it to my own style and then design space also has already pre-made labels that you can choose from then I'm just pressing it on I love how beautiful this came out and it's really just a dream come true to just transform something so easily after creating those sticker labels I wanted to create more so I had more fun on Cricut design space creating this simple life society graphic I'm gonna put this on a plain reusable cup and I use gold and black I just love that color combination and I love how you can customize it using your own fonts and play around with the designs as well as use a mixture of the graphics that are already on Cricut design space if you subscribe again I'm doing the weeding and this flower had so many little pieces but it's actually quite relaxing and then here I'm placing it on the cup I love that the grid helps me put it as straight as possible and it comes out so pretty I just want to make more and more of these I love how I'm able to personalize everything and I think this would be a really great gift idea now onto iron-on I was really excited for this one but since I'm new to it I love that Cricut had a bunch of tutorials online walking me through it step by step so I started with this pink and then they also sent me some holographic iron-on which I thought was so pretty so what I'm doing is I'm making my daughter a t-shirt she just graduated from preschool and I wanted to give her something special if you don't have the EZ press you can also use a regular iron for iron-on projects and I love to play with all the different materials that this Cricut machine can cut as you can see I used two different Sheen's for this t-shirt and I loved how it came out you can also design on your mobile phone or tablet and connect to your machine via bluetooth so you can design from anywhere I almost bought a t-shirt that has a similar saying on it and I'm so glad I'm able to just make it at home and I love how easy it is to create your own custom t-shirts infeasible ink differs from iron-ons because it actually infuses the ink into the material you're using I'm using this beautiful watercolor sheet and I love the colors of this one I chose this beautiful premade design and my plan was to remove the letters and have the heart shape and the negative letters be the prints and I thought it came out so beautiful it says love all the little things and all I did was kind of bend it and I could pull the letters out easily as a beginner I was first intimidated by the infusible ink projects but it is really not that different from doing all of the other projects and the easy press made it really simple to do and did most of the work for me and I just wanted to put this in here because if I can do it you can do it and I want to show you that even as a beginner you can do really advanced projects and when I removed the paper and everything I was so in shock at how beautiful it came out and the ink is really infused in there and came out so beautiful on this tote bag and this is just one of my favorite projects that I've done I was really intrigued by these coaster blanks by Cricut that worked with the infeasible Inca so I wanted to show you guys how it turned out I use the pre-made designs that were already on design space that fits the coasters perfectly I wanted to show you how easy it is to set up and get started with the Cricut Maker and how it allows di wires to do more with the expanding suite of tools there are endless possibilities and I can't wait to share more projects with you I hope you were inspired from this video I will try some craft ideas using the Cricut Maker and when it's a Cricut again for sponsoring this video and working with me and sharing these projects with you all
