    Thank you so much for making these videos. It took me 5 months to actually use my Cricut because I was so intimidated and overwhelmed. Your videos are helping me so much and it is like having a good friend walk me through everything. Thank you!

    Thank you, Jennifer! Especially about the reminder of "Don't overstock on stuff"!!! Your idea of "purchase what you need for the project you have" is the best advice!!!! Being a 'collector of stuff', that was the best advice! I tend to hoard and therefore have a file cabinet full of scrapbooking paper from when my niece and nephew were born, 22 and 23 years ago!! I have a ton of paper to practice with and now is the time for me to actually get busy and use it up!!!! Loved video 1 and now 2! Just waiting for #3 today!!

    Thank you, Jennifer, for being a great teacher. I teach middle school and bought my Air Explore 2 to create fun bulletin boards and items for my classroom. However, I was quickly overwhelmed by all the details in making projects using my ipad. You are so easy to understand and give great advice. Your visuals and demos are very helpful as well. I look forward to learning more from you.

    Hi Jennifer. I'm so glad I found your videos! I'm new to Cricut and just purchased an Explore 3 which I'll use to cut my stained glass patterns. I've subscribed to your channel and look forward to learning with you :) You have a lovely way of explaining things.
    One concern I do have is the plastic waste accumulated from using vinyl, as I don't think it's recyclable. What do you do with your vinyl waste? Do you have any tips as far as environmental considerations?
    Thank you again!

      @@JenniferMaker Thanks Jennifer, I've done a bit of research and found ways to reuse tiny scraps, and I've found PVC-free vinyl too (Eco Friendly Crafts). I'll try to create as little waste as I can to begin with, and probably stick to cardstock for the most part. Thanks again and take care :)

    Question: Can the Cricut infusible ink transfer sheets once cut be transferred onto polymer clay and baked in a toaster oven?

      Infusible Ink needs a high polyester count to be infused into the material with heat.

      Are you cutting vinyl or trying to do a print then cut? You have to change the color of your design to the color you are wanting. Each color will cut on a different mat🥰
