New in the Craft Room

The recent edition to my Craft Room is a Cricut Maker. After having a ScanNcut for several years this was the next step. There is a lot to love in this machine -- and of course I needed to make it mine. So out came the glitter vinyl.

Then there are needed/wanted extras of course. he machine has a blade swap out system that you add extra tips to. I got the Embossing tips at Spotlight on special. I have found some great specials on Amazon and get free shipping with my Prime Membership. So I got the Knife Blade, for cutting thick materials. I also found the Debossing tip at a good price today and purchased out of the. Check the link below.

Always extra mats and blades come in handy as well.
