A Cricut machine has been on my wish list for years. I mean years! And today I’m so excited to walk you through what all this amazing tool can do. Also, can we just take a minute and stare at the gorgeous mint color?

I can’t even count the number of reasons I’ve been wanting one of these Cricut Explore Air™ 2 machines – Holidays, kids birthdays, home decors, stencils, I mean the list goes on and on (you started singing the Titanic theme song didn’t you??).

When I first opened my new machine I followed the directions right out of the box and headed over to www.cricut.com/setup and followed the instructions!

Once you’re all set up you will need to log in to the Cricut Design Space™ which is the online design software where your projects come to life.

Once you are logged in the Cricut Design Space™ you’ll want to play around with the software and familiarize yourself with how everything works. It’s very easy to get acquainted and you can utilize the software from most of your devices – your computer, iPad®, iPhone®, or an Android™ device. The amazing thing about the Cricut Design Space™ is that you can choose from thousands of ready to go projects OR even design your own custom project from scratch or upload something you already have!

In addition to everything that’s already there for you, you can also join Cricut Access or Cricut Access Premium for more options (see the benefits below):

The Cricut Explore Air™ 2 machine is full of amazing features: 

• Up to 2X Faster. Select Fast Mode when you need to make every minute count.

I’m pretty excited to try out some of the non traditional materials for cutting out some of my favorite quotes. I also have a few fun projects planned that I will be sharing with you over the next few weeks!
