Hi friends! Do you own a Cricut Explore machine yet? If so, yay! If not, you’re going to want the Cricut Explore Air 2. It does it all and it’s way fast!
Whether you’re a newbie or you’ve been using Cricut for a while, let’s talk Cricut Make It Now Projects and that ever growing list of amazing list on Design Spaces’ homepage. I love designing and uploading my own things, but sometimes I just want to craft and I want it to be easy! This is where the Make It Now projects come in. The materials list and instructions are right there in front of you, plus if you press “MAKE IT” you don’t even have to size the project or modify it in any way, you just load your first mat. I have a little video tutorial for you to show you just how easy it is.
As part of my Back To School and Rule The School Cricut cartridges, there are tons of great projects that you’re teachers will love… especially if you attach a gift card to their favorite store to it! {wink} This project is the typography LIVE LOVE TEACH. I’ve placed it on a clipboard, but it would be great on a mug filled with cash, a tote filled with cash, or anything else filled with cash. You likely get that I think teachers are amazing and can always use cash to help fund their classrooms. I have a ton of teacher friends and they love their kids so much that they spend lots each year out of pocket. Okay… off my soapbox. {grin}

Easy Step-By-Step Tutorial For Make It Now Projects
