My Cricut Maker 3

When I printed stickers about two years ago, I noticed some people using Cricut machines. At the time, I didn’t know what they were. They looked pretty and cute, but they were expensive. After watching some videos, I learned that Cricut is a cutting machine. The price tag initially kept me from buying one, but since I’ve always wanted to make better stickers and create cards or T-shirts, I decided to purchase one at the beginning of this month.

I bought it for AUD $699 from Officeworks. I didn’t expect it to be so heavy, so I ended up taking the bus home with it. Here is how I learned how to use it.
