I love my Cricut but I am SURE I only use about half of the features or understand a quarter of how things work. How do you determine pressure/blade depth when you work? I typically use max pressure and 6 blade depth and forget to ever change that. And do you know how to use the "center" feature? I heard once that you could cut pictures using that feature, but I could never figure out how to use that.
That's awesome Skye! You and the rest of the teachers will love it! Heather, I just recently used the center feature. It's very cool. I will do a video on it next week. As far as cutting goes, I typically have the speed and pressure at max. However, if I am doing a small, intricate cut, I will decrease the speed. Also, there is a neat iPhone app called "Cricut Cutting Guide" that gives you settings for blade depth, speed and pressure for TONS of different materials and BRANDS of paper. Check it out. HTH!
Love your post on the cricut....our PTF just bought us one this summer. I am so looking forward to using it! Thanks...keep the videos coming.

ReplyDelete...and by cutting pictures I mean cropping them.
