Using an iron-on decal? You'll need the Cricut EasyPress to adhere it to your fabric.
#CRICUT ENGRAVING TOOL FREE#
I avoided a lot of cost by downloading free fonts and using paper I already owned, but if you’re looking to create more complicated projects, the costs will likely add up quickly as you buy graphics, materials, and special attachments, like the Deep Cut Blade or additional cutting mats.Ĭricut also recommends you use their specific tools on each project. I ended up purchasing the template for that little note card, and it cost $2.13 after tax.įor just a few small projects, I spent more than $60 on extra supplies.
Their fonts cost $4.99 each, and graphics range from $0.99 to $1.99. Digital assets: One of the craziest things to me is that you have to pay per item for Cricut’s graphics and fonts.Materials: I purchased a roll of black vinyl for $7.99, a pack of three pearl-finish vinyls for $16.99, and transfer tape for $7.99.(I also didn’t realize that I needed a separate Scoring Stylus to make cards or envelopes, so I ended up folding them by hand.) Tools: I purchased the Cricut Basic Tool Set for $26.99, as the weeding tool helps you pull out small pieces of vinyl and the scraper is helpful for transferring labels.
Currently, I’m planning to make a calendar decal for my office white board, as well as stencils to trace onto some handmade plates. Pretty much every time I finish a project with the Cricut, I immediately think of three or four new things I want to try.
They’re just so fun to design and make, and I couldn’t be more impressed with the machine’s ability to quickly cut out even the most complex patterns. The machine only needed a minute to cut out the designs, and now, I can’t stop making labels for everything in my home. The font I chose was admittedly intricate, with lots of swirls and flourishes, but the Cricut was able to cut the labels out perfectly. I wanted them to be unique, so I downloaded a cool font and designed my own custom labels in Design Space, then cut them out of black vinyl. The first project I attempted with my Cricut was creating pantry labels for my flour and sugar jars-yes, I spend a lot of time on Pinterest, and no, I’m not sorry about it.
