Cricut Explore Make It Now Video Hop — I Miss You
Hello all! For my followers, I will say sorry I have been missing for so long. If you are new to my blog, WELCOME!! I was on Melody Lane’s Patreon stream and shared my idea about making one of the Cricut Make It Now projects per day to build up my card stash. Then, thinking it would be a really great idea for new owners of the Cricut Explore. When you get a new piece of equipment, sometimes it can be daunting. This will show how super easy it is to get one of these projects done.
The next day, I asked for people to join me in making some videos. With Melody’s help, we were actually able to get four other crafters to do videos. So, we are calling it a video hop. Now, we only have 6 videos scheduled, there may be more or I may continue on alone.
My video is a little lengthy as mine usually are, I like to talk!! I also wanted to make sure that a person taking their Explore out of the box for the first time could go along with the video. It was hard to put that “hat” on and try to cover everything.
Hopefully, after this week you will be very excited and have a good start to a stash of cards. You will feel very comfortable in using your Explore. If you have any questions along the way, we are all more than happy to help!
Here is a photo of the cards I made. I made one like the project and dressed one up a little.
