Weekend Crafting Adventure Wrap Up: Learning To Use My Cricut Maker

Did you know that there is sublimation heat transfer vinyl? You can use sublimation vinyl to add beautiful vibrant sublimation ink designs onto cotton and dark colors. In this crafting project, I use HTVRONT Sublimation HTV for Dark Fabric to put infusible ink tie dye designs on black cotton t-shirts. The HTVRONT sublimation heat transfer vinyl I used is matt white so adding colorful sublimation designs to any color fabric is now an option!

I can't wait to share this fun and unique way to use the Cricut Maker! I could not get enough of learning about embroidery from my last crafting adventure, so I took it to the next level in this project. I had my Cricut draw and embroidery design on Stick 'N Stitch and created a custom mandala monogram for a jute and canvas summer tote. I had so much fun learning about embroidery stitches that I used to create a beautiful summer accessory! I love finding more ways to ensure that I can be creative even when I am not in my crafting corner! This is a great make-and-take crafting project!

I have been looking forward to cutting felt with my Cricut, but I have been waiting for just the right project! I am a hat girl, and I love creating one-of-a-kind hats, so I decided to combine my love of hats with a fun felt applique project! I found some great designs that my Cricut is cutting the felt for, and I am learning how to attach the felt designs to the hats with some simple embroidery stitches. I can’t wait to share my experience doing this crafting project with you!

In this crafting project I am cutting natural wood veneers into layered boho style earrings with my Cricut Maker and the Deep-point Blade. After my experience with cutting basswood for my seasonal HOME sign I have waited a long time to try cutting wood again with my Cricut. I found two beautiful boho style earring designs on Creative Fabrica that I am using for this crafting adventure. I chose to layer light colored maple on top of the darker walnut veneer to create a beautiful natural layered look to my earrings. Find out if my experience cutting the wood veneer was more enjoyable than cutting the basswood in this weekend crafting adventure.

Summer is here and I am excited to create a farmhouse-style “Welcome” door hanger to freshen up our front door! This is one of my favorite projects that I have done in a long time. I did need to make a choice between using heat transfer vinyl and permanent vinyl…find out which one I chose and why it was the wrong choice. I found the perfect SVG Welcome design for my project on Creative Fabrica. I am so excited to share with all of you that Creative Fabrica is giving us the opportunity to access over 7 million fonts, graphics, and digital resources in an All Access Subscription Free Trial!
