From the creator of Leap of Faith Crafting comes a brand new book, all about making handmade festive gifts and decorations with your Cricut cutting machine!
Throughout the whimsical pages of this book, author Amy Pelzner will walk you through 30 brand-new Cricut projects that can be personalised and given as gifts to friends and family or hung as decor in your own home as the Christmas season approaches. With step-by-step photos and encouraging instructions, you'll be confidently crafting Amy's ideas (or placing inspired spins on your own) in no time at all!
Whether you are a skilled crafter or new to DIY, you will find exciting ways to use your Cricut Maker, Explore, and/or Joy.
If you're new to the Cricut scene, you'll want to pore over the pages that help you unbox your Cricut, giving you a general understanding of the parts of your machine, as well as tips for using Cricut Design Space and Cricut Access.
If you're an experienced Cricut crafter, you can skip ahead to the projects, which use the most popular materials your Cricut can cut. These include fabric (cotton, felt, and fleece); basswood and chipboard; leather; vinyl; paper; and heat transfer vinyl. Tips for using infusible ink are also included.
