I know what you are doing. You are sitting there staring at your new Cricut machine, and scared to touch it. STOP THAT! You aren’t going to break it so let’s dive into your first project using Cricut Machine. Take a breath and just start.

Look inside the box to find a project that Cricut has already sent you. Depending on the Cricut model you chose, the projects will be different.

I was so happy to see inside my Cricut Machine Explore Air 2 box that there was a first project ready for me to make. Otherwise I wouldn’t have known where to start.

But this gave me a chance to work with my Cricut machine and not be afraid. All I could think was…I would hate to break it so soon. hahaha

In my box, I found the Enjoy card, but I can’t find the video for it now. I know I saw one….but it’s lost now.

I walk you through a simple project, with a video, and also give you lots of links to helpful blog posts, like how to download fonts to use with your Cricut.
