Today I’m sharing another new Cricut cartridge! This one is all about Christmas and also part of this month’s Cricut Mystery Box! Shhh! It’s still a secret! {wink} I named this one “Oh What Fun!” This little phrase sums up all the feels I have for Christmas. We enjoy every minute and every detail in my house, from baking cookies to decking the halls to spending time with friends and family. I wanted this set to be all about the fun this holiday brings.
It’s A Big Secret
I know what you’re thinking… designs in the Mystery Box are supposed to be a secret… well they are unless you read my blog and then I get to give you a sneak peek! {wink} This month’s Cricut Mystery Box has five cartridges in it, a value of $79.99 and you get my Oh What Fun! cartridge plus four others for $29.99 to kick off your holiday crafting! Did you see my Pie! Oh My! fall and Thanksgiving cartridge that I shared yesterday?
What Is The Cricut Mystery Box?
If you’re not familiar with Cricut’s Mystery Box, then let me give you the dish. These designs and all the others in the box are not available for sale in Cricut Design Space right now and won’t be for a while so if you want to craft with any of these (and I so hope you do!!!) then you have to pick them up in this month’s Mystery Box.
The other thing to know is that they’re digital, which means you get access immediately and you don’t have to wait on the cartridge to arrive. Yay! I do warn that these designs are exclusively for the Explore family of machines.
How Do I Buy The Cricut Mystery Box?
The Mystery Box is easy to purchase on Cricut.com and is only available for a few short days so shop fast!! Plus:
- 30% off most Cricut supplies this week, and

10 Oh What Fun! Cricut Cartridge Craft Project Ideas
If you’re wondering what you can do with these designs, well let me give you a few ideas. These are the things I had in mind when they were designed. These are just a few possibilities:
- Gift wrap tags – mix and match all the tags in this set and personalize them for all the fabulous people in your life!
- Hot chocolate bar backdrop – the “Baby It’s Cold Outside” phrase is perfect for a hot chocolate bar! Use printable vinyl or paper.
- Hot chocolate bar labels – use the snowflake tags to label all the goodies on your hot chocolate bar. These are great as stickers on jars, or as flags on lollipop sticks.
- Cake topper – the ribbon banner in this set is the perfect cake topper! Personalize the ribbon to say anything you like or use the predesigned “Oh What Fun” ribbon in the set (not shown).
- Pajama shirt – how cute would my little penguin (a cut file perfect for iron on) be on a pajama shirt. You could add text to say something quippy like “Chill! It’s The Holidays!”
- Peronalized coffee mugs – wouldn’t it be fun to have polar bear mugs for the entire family! Personalize each ribbon and print the design on Cricut’s printable vinyl. It holds color so beautiful and applies super easy.
- Holiday photo cards – there are two holiday cards in this set. The first is a bright “Merry & Bright” card. Insert your family photo in the die cut frame, back it with a slightly larger cardstock back, use one of the designs in the set to embellish the envelope and send! Or, use the stockings version. I designed three, one with three stockings, one with four stockings and one with five.
- Holiday card envelopes – there are three round designs in this set that would be perfect to close your holiday envelopes. Use the greenery round and add your family initial. Or use the “Very Merry” or “Oh Joy,” all three would be beautiful on your Christmas cards.
- Santa – help Santa out with these fun “Northpole” tags. Use them to wrap special items for Christmas morning!
- Scrapbook page – all of these elements would make a beautiful fall or Thanksgiving scrapbook page to show off all those amazing moments you and your family are going to have this holiday season!
These are just a few of my ideas, I’m sure when you look at these designs you probably see a entirely different set of crafts. And that is the beauty of Cricut. One design can be hundreds of different crafts, especially since you can pull back the layers and pick and choose exactly what you want to use.
