Scrapbooking and Greeting Cards

• Scrapbooking layouts, party decorations and greeting cards are the more familiar crafts that you can make with Cricut machine die cuts. Its cartridges allow you to create shapes and characters, letter fonts, tags and shapes that highlight scrapbooking layouts with borders, characters and journaling blocks. Border embellishments, flower shapes, cards, envelopes and tags are beneficial for the card maker who doesn't have time to cut every piece by hand. Enhance and personalize cards and layouts further with fonts, which include individual letters and connected words.
  
  

Home Decorations

• Transform plain homemade crafts and gifts to decorative art pieces with fabric embellishments cut with the Cricut machine. Country designs, flowers, characters, letters and food images can be cut from fabrics and secured to pre-made or hand-sewn items. Even the novice crafter can sew, adhere or iron Cricut embellishments to tote bags, towels, pillowcases, clothing and any fabric-based item. Add designs to a tablecloth, napkins, place mats, stockings, bedding and a tree skirt to decorate them for Thanksgiving, Christmas and any holiday or special event.
  
  

Food Containers

• Cricut supplies cartridges that feature decorative pieces related to food projects. Lacy cupcake liners can be cut from paper for wedding, showers and birthday party decor. Paper, vinyl and foam cut outs embellish glass jars, food boxes, food wrappers and cellophane treat bags for holidays, gifts and party favors. The new cake-decorating machine and cartridges provide you with designs, characters and lettering for decorating full size cakes, cupcakes and cookies.
  
  

Dimensional Art

• Cut and combine multi-layered pieces to create dimensional items for enhancing a craft project. Embellish a plain wreath with an array of paper flowers or fruits and vegetables for a wall or door display. Create gift boxes and bags with paper ribbon and multi-petaled daisies. Card stock birds and butterflies with dimensional wings perch on plant pots, grapevine twigs and picture frames. A dimensional banner can be made by combining over-sized tags with miniature paper baby clothes, animals or flowers for a party. Layers of image pieces can be mounted on to a recipe box or book to give further dimension with craft foam adhered between the parts. The imagination of the crafter is the only limit when using Cricut products to personalize many craft or household items.
