30-Piece Memory Game on Wood
I’m working on a 30-piece memory game for my nieces. The wooden discs are two inches around, and I made the image that goes on the circle 1.8 inches in vinyl on my Cricut Maker 3. I’m thinking it might be better to use sticker paper, so that when I go over each piece with […]
Angie Holden: Cricut Packaging Ideas for Small Businesses and Gifts
When I started thinking about the packaging for my wooden puzzles. I came across this video on Angie Holden‘s YouTube channel.

Cricuting with Delonda: Cricut Tutorial: How To Use Cricut Adhesive Foil | Dollar Tree Candy Jar
I have some of the adhesive foil that Delonda uses in this video, but I haven’t used it yet. Watching her video helped me to know how best to transfer the foil from its backing to the surface of wherever I want to put the adhesive foil. Now I have a good idea of what SVG file I want to create and what object I want to put it on. ?
Create a Bean Queen SVG Cut File in Cricut Design Space
Whew! I just finished creating the video tutorial for how to make your own Bean Queen cut file and how to diversify the file to get different looks. I even put the file in the following mockup just to show how it would look in real life. Now I have to edit the video, so […]

CRAVERLAND Pens Adapters for Cricut
I got these pen adapters after watching a few YouTube Videos about using all kinds of pens with my Cricut Maker 3. I have used them with Crayola markers and Sharpies so far, and they work very well. No complaints whatsoever. I’m looking forward to using them with more pen sets that I’ve purchased from […]
Wedge Box Made in Cricut Design Space
I’m working on packaging for my puzzles. This wedge box was super easy to make. I like that I can use the file as-is to make a small box or, as I did with this project, make it larger (10.726″ x 10.5″) for a bigger box. I intend to put my logo on a circular […]
Cutting Mats for my Cricut Maker 3 Projects
I purchased a couple of the two-packs of the HTVRONT StrongGrip cutting mats, and I really like them! I’ll also be ordering some StandardGrip and LightGrip mats, as well, now that I know I like the quality of the StrongGrip mats. Before trying the HTVRONT brand of cutting mats, I tried the NICAPA brand of […]
My First Heat Transfer Vinyl (Iron-on™) Project
Don’t ask me why, but I put off working with vinyl for a couple months after I got my Cricut Maker 3, even though I purchased my Cricut Maker 3 to work with vinyl. ? I just didn’t want to mess something up, because vinyl can be pricey. Anyway… I finally took the plunge… kinda. […]
Can You Print From A Printer on Dollar Tree Vinyl
Cricut.com had a sale, and I purchased five packs of their Infusible Ink Freehand Markers in Brush Tip Tropical and five packs in Brush Tip Basics. One of my other crafting quests is to make wooden puzzles, so I knew I’d be using the infusible ink markers for those, but I wasn’t quite sure how to use the markers. So… I found this video by Kelly on the Let’s Get Clacking YouTube channel, and it got me started on a good footing. Thanks, Kelly! ?
