Learn how to make Cricut cards and design your own! Cricut cards are so much fun to make! But if you haven't made them before, it can take some time to learn all the different ways to make them. There are simple card designs that you can make in just a few minutes with just cardstock - they're almost instant gratification! And there are so many ways to actually cut the designs depending on the machine you have! I'm really impressed by the Cricut card mat and all the designs it makes possible. If you just want to know where to start with cardmaking on your Cricut, this tutorial is for you! And if you're ready to start experimenting with your own designs, I'll go over the basics!
