I had fun today making an iron-on wine bag for my work bestie.  I have made some insert cards.  What else have you done with your Cricut that I really need to do?  I have Cricut Access Subscription, but I also have a ton of digi stuff, including cutfiles from ACOT!

I love my Cricut though I don't use it as much these days (too lazy to stand up). It's great for cutting out appliques for quilting/sewing, cutting through chipboard (need the big slicer needle thingy), I need to get new markers but you can draw/color and cut, and you can...
make your own stencils (intricate ones too), and make your own images to cut (by cutting apart and welding different images using Cricut Design).

The one thing I have NEVER done with my Cricut - that everyone else seems to have - is cut vinyl!

You can do so many things! Make signs, cut designs for embellishments, cut titles, cake toppers… as Rachel says the possibilities are endless!!! If you have a print and cut feature you can get washi paper and print designs on your printer and then your machine will cut them! So much fun!!!

That's awesome!  Some of the ladies I crop with bring their Cricut with them and make amazing things.

Congrats on the Cricut! I tried all of the things when I first got mine almost a decade ago! These days I use it mostly for designing my own titles, sentiments and large cut files for layouts. I love using heat transfer vinyl to make shirts for my littles. You should try it!

Happy Birthday!  Enjoy “exploring”!!  The only thing I have done aside from cuts, is a print and cut which was fun.

Oh I'm so happy for you!!  Can't wait to see what you make.  I have vinyl but haven't had the nerve to cut it or felt with mine yet!
